Review from Ahmed S (Father of Child) published on 17 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to this nursery since she was 1 and now we are getting ready to start school. Our daughter considers this nursery as a second home and we consider the staff as family. Everything is excellent and I am happy that my daughter grew up in a safe, happy and healthy environment.

Review from Hannah M (Mother of Child) published on 17 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has been at this nursery since June 2017 and I have always been extremely impressed with the care they provide.
The staff are great and I feel like they are part of our extended family. Passionate about what they do, they all show a genuine interest in my child's development and he thoroughly enjoys attending nursery.
Over the last year, they have worked so hard in keeping staff and children safe during the pandemic, going above and beyond on a daily basis.

My child will leave nursery this August and I will be very sad to say goodbye to the exceptional team that have cared for my son for 4 years.

Reply from Ceri Jasper, Deputy Manager at Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School, Newcastle

Lovely words, thank you so much. You will all be a big miss come the summer.

Review from L B (Mother of Child) published on 24 September 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We have found this to be a lovely nursery. The staff are supremely kind and thoughtful in how to make a nursery experience tailored to the needs and interests of our child. I have also been very impressed by the organisations response to covid. They seem to have taken great care to protect the mental and physical welfare of the children and their workers. I feel very safe and confident in having my child at the nursery. I love the daily updates and photos on his progress and I appreciate their consideration and actions on how to support my child's development. Also, my kid adores being able to see the trains from the garden.

Review from Amy S (Mother of Child) published on 10 March 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
This review mainly relates to my second child who has attended The Co-operative Newcastle Nursery since he was 9-months-old. He is now 4. My eldest child also attended the nursery between the ages of 1 year and 4.5 years.
I have only good things to say about this nursery (with the one exception that it sometimes takes a while before they answer the door - not ideal when you are in a rush!). The staff are all friendly, helpful, nurturing and both of my children felt entirely safe and confident whilst in their care.
The facilities are welcoming, bright and engaging including outside and indoor play areas. The staff make sure the children have a wide variety of fun, educational and engaging activities to do each day: I have never had either of my children report feeling bored after a day at nursery.

Parents receive regular, informative feedback on their child's progress which is always useful - especially considering the expert knowledge of the staff who prepare these reviews. 10/10!

Wonderful nursery with highly trained and friendly staff. Extremely low turnover of staff. High-quality food. Our son loves it there. The only downside is there's no good garden but staff take them on walks nonetheless.

Review from Louise A (Mother of Child) published on 29 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child loves going to nursery - she has developed deep friendships with the children in her room. The activities she does are novel, exciting and educational and she has a real affection for the staff who take care of her. We appreciate the feedback in person and via the app, the meals are great, hours suit our needs and location is convenient.

Overall Experience

Have no bad comments about this nursery. I didn't think I'd be comfortable leaving my daughter with people I didn't know but all the staff are lovely, they all go out their way to do things and welcome my daughter every time. She now goes into nursery running and waves me goodbye and that's down to the lovely staff. They've helped cater for her dietary needs as well which makes me so much as ease! Would recommend this nursery every time I wouldn't even look anywhere else as soon as I went for a viewing of the nursery I knew that was the one!

Big thank you to all the staff at this brilliant nursery both my children have attended here and came on brilliant thanks to all the staff planning and organising fantastic activities. My daughter had recently moved up rooms and the staff have been great with continuing to get to know and settle here in. The routine of the nursery fit in very well and have gave my daughter great structure.

The experience of my som being at the Co-op Childcare has been great. I feel my son has developed a lot in terms of interacting with the other kids. He is now more vocal. I also feel that my son is within a safe environment and the staff are really friendly.

Review from V J C (Mother of Child) published on 22 February 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have loved our time at this nursery - our son is now 3 (and a half - he'd want that included!) and has been there since he was 11 months. He continues to thrive, with the wonderful staff both nurturing and developing him. He's enjoyed such a variety of activities, and is now developing his phonics, ready for school in September. It will be a wrench to leave - it has been so wonderful to leave him somewhere I know he is happy, adored, safe, and so well cared for. He eats well, has developed confidence and social skills, and comes home full of songs and stories and is excited for the next week.

I love this nursery. My daughter loves it and all the staff are very friendly.
My daughter enjoys it and learns a lot. I feel she is in very capable hands and I know she is safe and happy when I leave her.
She has made lovely friends and has learnt great manners and habits from nursery. I wish she could go to school here too.

Thank you to all the staff.

My son clearly enjoys his time at nursery he always wants to stay and play a bit longer!

There's always lots of engaging activities for him to get stuck into and it's great to see how much he is learning during his time there. The staff are always so happy and friendly and the care they provide is excellent.
