The nursery are Green Flag eco schools accredited, a programme that sees children lead the way in making little changes that deliver big environmental differences. They have areas for growing food (and eating it), regular visits to local care homes and take care of each other and the world.
They have 5 Little Pioneers to help share their core values with children, such as encouraging them to be independent to expressing their feelings.
The nursery has an outdoor play area that is surrounded by the remainder of the building, making it a safe and secure environment for children to play in. Staff and children take advantage of all of the local amenities which include two play areas, one at the entrance to nursery and one at the rear.

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for 2 years. She has learnt to speak and behave very nicely. The key worker is very good and my daughter wanted to go even on weekends. The best thing about it is the Parentzone where I can see her progress and what she is learning and eating.

My little girl has an illness due to being born premature and the staff at The Co-operative Childcare Newbiggin are amazing with her when it comes to her being unwell or needing medication. She has come on leaps and bounds since September and she absolutely adores the staff as well. Makes me feel so relaxed at work knowing she’s well cared for.
Excellent nursery staff. Calm, patient and understanding with my son. Great room with plenty of attention paid to children's individual needs.

My daughter has had ups and downs with settling in but is getting better. I can see a growth in her and can tell she enjoys being here. She always comes home tired which is a good sign, all her energy is being used up.

Our experience so far has been very pleasant. The girls are really understanding and are very patient with nervous parents like us. Thank you so much for looking after my child.

A fantastic nursery who enables children to develop their independent skills and problem-solving. Every child is carefully considered, nurtured and provided for. An excellent childcare facility.

My son really enjoys coming to nursery, he loves all of the girls and has always done something he enjoys each time he comes. He has come on so much since starting with his talking and behaviour. I'm really impressed with the nursery.
