  • Edenhurst Nursery, Newcastle-under-Lyme
Rated 'Outstanding' by the ISI (October 2021), Edenhurst Nursery caters for children from the age of three months to four-years-old, offering the highest quality care in a safe, engaging and nurturing environment.

Qualified, friendly staff are dedicated to providing each child with all the support and encouragement they need to learn and grow.

Children benefit from five different rooms which have all been set up to offer a stimulating learning environment, with plenty of space to play as well as dining areas, where children enjoy nutritionally balanced, home-cooked lunches, made by their on-site catering team.

Extended days and all-year-round care are available and the team at the nursery work alongside parents and families to ensure that personal routines, diets and preferences are always factored in to daily practice.

When a child first joins the nursery, their first visit typically lasts for around an hour. Parents are welcome to stay with their child and ask any questions they may have. Following this, the team will set up longer visits until children are happy staying at the nursery for a full day.

Edenhurst Nursery children are given preference for a place in the school's reception class, starting the September after their fourth birthday.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attends the nursery. I love the fact that they focus on the child not the parents. I know that they are not just putting on a show because I'm there. They are genuinely child focused. They are quick to respond when you ask questions and our suggestions as parents are always welcome by the staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We visited many nurseries when choosing somewhere for our little boy, and nowhere felt quite right until we found Edenhurst. Hayley, who manages the nursery, is clearly passionate about her role and made it obvious that our son would be well cared for. The facilities are excellent, everything is always
clean, and they provide homecooked, varied meals every day. Even our fussy eater finishes every bite!
He's been attending for over four months now and had an emotional start, but the staff worked incredibly hard to help him settle, and he now genuinely loves going. We receive regular updates about how well he's eating, along with photos of him enjoying different activities. Knowing he's in such good hands has made returning to work far less stressful.
The children take part in a wide range of activities, and whenever I pick him up he's always beaming. I would highly recommend Edenhurst to anyone.

Can't praise the staff and place as a whole. We've loved sending the children and seeing them progress through the years.
My eldest has a bad skin condition and they've had to deal with that alongside everything else during his time there. They've always been extremely helpful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our experience has been nothing short of exceptional. My son has been part of this community since he was a baby, and the impact on his growth has been remarkable. Over the years, I've watched him develop into a confident, independent, and incredibly advanced child. Family, friends, and even complete
strangers often comment on how mature and capable he is for his age. They notice his communication skills, his curiosity, and the way he carries himself with such assurance. I truly believe the nurturing environment, the patience, and the intentional support he has received here have played a major role in shaping the child he is today. As a parent, it brings me so much joy and peace to know he is thriving in a place that sees his potential and helps him flourish every step of the way.

Review from Q H (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Edenhurst nursery has been a life saver for me the transition of getting my little one comfortable in going to nursery for three long days a week was scary for me but the staff made it so easy and so much more comfortable for my little one. He has been going to Edenhurst since the beginning of January
and he enjoys it tremendously that on his day offs he asks to go nursery. They have helped so much with potty training him and has become much more talkative. He is only 3 but has started to show interest in reading books since starting nursery as well. This has to be one of the best day nurseries around.

Really happy with the nursery for our two children, staffing seems stable with little turnover, they all seem to genuinely be fond of the children and we trust them entirely. Our children both enjoy attending.

It's a wonderful little nursery; both my son & daughter have attended, with the latter still there in Little Explorers. The staff are all so friendly, my daughter loves going in, and she has a blast with the teachers and her little friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When we visited Edenhurst we knew straightaway it’s the nursery we wanted and we are so happy we sent our boy to Edenhurst. His developments have been noticeable since the day he started.
The staff are very friendly and patient, they keep his routines and update the app so we know how he’s doing. Every
week they do observations and upload pictures so we know what he has done and learnt. I really enjoy reading the notes and they are very detailed and informative.
I like that they do different activities for Chinese New Year, World Book Day, Mother's Day etc. It’s so lovely to see those crafts my son made.
There is also a variety of food on the menu and I feel the boy is trying more new food at nursery than at home!
I would definitely recommend Edenhurst I think it’s the best one in the area where we live.

My experience has been very good. My child is always looking forward to going to nursery. Her development is very noticeable. The staff are amazingly good in every way and very understanding. They work closely with the parents in supporting the children. Parents get a chance once in a while to join
the nursery in kid's activities to celebrate events such as Mother’s Day which is amazing.

I love the interaction between my son and the staff. He genuinely enjoys their company. Every morning he runs into nursery and has a happy smile at the end of the day. The staff really care for the children and for a new mum, it was reassuring and gave me peace of mind that he enjoyed going to Edenhurst
Nursery.
He has come along leaps and bounds with his speaking, shows kind behaviour and clearly has fun learning. Thank you ever so much.

By far, the best nursery! My daughter has attended this nursery for two years and is such a happy, sociable and confident little girl thanks to the amazing staff who have cared for her here. The nursery manager and assistant manager are also brilliant and it speaks volumes how long some of the staff
have worked here for. I would happily recommend this nursery and only wish I'd found them sooner for my older child!

Very good service and staff and my child's development is evident. She regularly gets paintings she made during the activity time at nursery, updates in the app and books and toys to periodically taken home, which is really nice. Even inviting her mother for planting seeds was a good gesture.

Always go out of their way to ensure the children's needs are met in terms of dietary requirements and health issues. Always willing to accommodate to let children get involved in events (even if the event takes place on a day that the child doesn't regularly attend).

My wife and I think Edenhurst is fantastic. We have only ever had positive experiences from each class and staff member that our daughter has been with. Our daughter loves it so much, she is upset on days she is not scheduled to be there!
There seems to be a great variety of activities for her to
experience new things. But most of all, we feel it provides a safe and nurturing environment. We continue to recommend Edenhurst to friends and family.

My 4 and 2-year-old have both gone to Edenhurst since they turn 1, they have both absolutely loved it. They've never been a problem going in, always happy to go and see their teachers. They have so much fun there and I'm so impressed with how much they teach them too. They've learnt so much and continue
to learn along with fun activities. The food menu is always varied and they eat everything which is so good as they're so fussy at home! The care that the staff provide is second to none, they do such an important job and you can tell how wonderful the staff are by looking at how happy the children are. I can't recommend Edenhurst enough, thank you for looking after my girls.

All three of my children have attended Edenhurst Nursery and it has given them all such a fantastic start. I currently have one child in Toddlers and one in Early Learners. Their days are filled with lots of fun activities and the variety of activities has always been superb. The days are well structured
but flexible enough to meet any needs of the children (nap times etc) and I cannot fault any of the staff, they’re all very friendly and passionate about what they do. My daughter always has lots to tell me about her day and I am amazed how her writing and number skills are coming along (she’s yet to turn 4). I wouldn’t want to send my children anywhere else locally.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.181)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.181) out of 10 for Edenhurst Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.906 for Edenhurst Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.906
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.275 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Edenhurst Nursery is based on 8 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.65
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 64 number of registered child places is 12.8. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.625
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
