Review from A O (Mother of Child) published on 7 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We can't recommend Tynemouth Nursery highly enough. Our daughter started at 9 months old and has stayed for preschool and our son has recently started at 9 months old. We have been so impressed with the care shown to both our children, from initial settling-in sessions and beyond. The staff and management team are amazing, and genuinely care about all the children. The nursery is a happy environment to walk into and the staff are always smiley, friendly and show a real interest. We have been really impressed by the extracurricular activities that the nursery has offered including music, ballet, football, rugby and tennis! The staff have lots of engaging activities planned every day and it has been really amazing to see our children's development during their time there. We love getting updates on their day via the app and receiving detailed observations and assessments to show their development too.

Overall Experience

The staff at Tynemouth Nursery are all so lovely. The nursery always has the warmest, most welcoming feel to it. All the staff are so polite, kind and helpful and take such good care of the children. You can see they have genuine, strong connections with them and this isn't just the staff in the actual rooms, all staff at the nursery are great with the children. I'm so pleased we chose this nursery for our son and wouldn't dream of sending him anywhere else.

Overall Experience
We have entrusted both of our daughters to Tynemouth Nursery and we could not be more impressed with the exceptional staff. They consistently go above and beyond to create a warm and welcoming environment for all the children.

One member of staff, in particular, is one of the kindest individuals we have had the pleasure of meeting. The way our little girl eagerly greets her every morning speaks volumes about the care and nurture she provides. Four other staff members are all outstanding in their roles and we are truly grateful for all they do. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have one member of staff as our daughter's teacher. Your wonderful persona and unwavering commitment to the children are nothing short of amazing.

The staff are very friendly when I come to pick up my granddaughter. The interaction between staff and children is always very positive. The staff provide you with all the information ie last feed, sleep etc. There appears to be a lot of activities available for the children.

Review from S D (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Tynemouth Nursery has been a very welcoming and warm environment for my son. He found it challenging to adapt to a nursery environment, at first, but the staff have all been kind and supportive. They keep in regular contact with me, throughout the day, and always are so calm and collected. The activities my son partakes in at the nursery are also lovely and different to what we would do at home. I would highly recommend this nursery if you are looking for somewhere with a warm and homely feel.

Review from P H (Father of Child) published on 16 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending this nursery since January 2024. Looking back, we had a slightly shaky start as he didn't love being left straight away (which child does?), and with our second invoice we received notice of a price increase - perhaps the latter could have been handled better, or perhaps it was just a sensitive time for us. That's about it for the negatives, so let's fast forward to present day; he loves the place and particularly the staff. The nursery have taken care to adjust his key worker to meet his learning and emotional needs, the wider care for him is exemplary and his welfare is at the heart of the service. It feels very much like the staff are passionate and take genuine joy in helping him develop. An important point is that if there are any concerns (a rarity), the management are responsive and accountable. Our warmest thanks to the staff and unreserved recommendation to prospective parents and children.

Review from Aimee F (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We absolutely love Tynemouth Nursery on Preston Avenue and our children do as well. They have come on so much since joining a year ago and are both so excited to see all staff, they are welcomed with big smiles and hugs from everyone who works there as soon as they come in the door and always greeted by name even if the children aren't in their room/class. The staff are very communicative with us and take on any request we give. They are constantly doing new activities in their room and getting lots of time outside. We're also really pleased with the varied meals they receive.O verall, very happy we enrolled the girls here!

Overall Experience

Starting our girls off at nursery was heart-wrenching as you don't want to let go but picking this nursery has been the best decision for them and us as a family. Our girls are 2 and 3 and are absolutely thriving and flourishing here. The staff are better than you could wish for and have formed gorgeous bonds with our girls. The love and care goes above and beyond any expectations we had. We are always asked by our girls if the staff members can come to our house for tea! They'd be very welcome. Can't recommend this nursery enough.

Review from K H (Mother of Child) published on 24 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son goes to Tynemouth Nursery one day a week which has been a hard routine to adjust to. The staff have done everything they can to help him settle. He now walks in with arms open wide. The staff are all friendly and kind and they all know him not just the staff from his room. I am confident he is well cared for and happy whilst there. They offer a range of activities that meet his developmental needs and his social, language and motor skills have greatly improved whilst attending. The outdoor garden is a great space and the catering team do a great job.

Review from L C (Mother of Child) published on 21 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
The staff provide a safe, nurturing environment at Tynemouth nursery. They go above and beyond organising a wide range of activities for the children. My daughter has thrived and some of this is down to the excellent support, care, and education given at nursery. For over 3 years, Tynemouth Nursery has been an extension of our family.
The catering is great, the menu is changed at varying times throughout the year and it is excellent.

Overall keep doing what you do, you are great.

Tynemouth Nursery has been absolutely wonderful for our daughter.
Every day she would wake up asking for her teachers and little friends. She goes in happy and leaves with a big smile on her face, after a day full of adventures.

Couldn't have wished for more. The food is homecooked and super delicious.

Overall Experience
My son has attended the nursery for 3 years and has loved every minute.
The attention and care the children get is second to none along with the activities they do, the outside garden space they have to play in, the selection of food they offer and the day trips they go on, my son has thrived because of all of this.

Tynemouth Nursery has been the perfect place to prepare for school in September.

My child has settled in very well to the nursery and we feel very reassured that he is cared for and is happy within the setting. His key worker and all staff always greet us with a smile and are very responsive to both the wellbeing of my child and any questions we may have. A great nursery all round.

My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her first few months at Tynemouth Nursery. The staff are friendly, welcoming and patient and it is clear our daughter has a strong bond with them as she looks forward to going in each morning. Communication, both in-person and via the app, have been excellent and we can see the development in our daughter during her time with the nursery. The catering on offer for the children is exceptional and helps them maintain and healthy balanced diet.

Review from Alexandra M (Mother of Child) published on 15 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has attended Tynemouth Nursery (Preston Village) for almost a year now and neither I nor his father could be any happier with the nursery as a whole.
They’re extremely attentive to our son in every single way. He’s well cared for, his development has come on in strides and he really has excelled into an amazing little boy with the help of everyone at the nursery.
Any key worker assigned to our son has been amazing and has always worked alongside the other nursery staff to make sure he gets the best from every day.

The activities are fantastic, every day is extremely well-planned and thought-through. Nothing is ever too much to ask for and every single member of staff from the office to the nursery staff themselves are entirely 100% approachable and as helpful as they possibly can be with all queries. We really could not recommend this nursery enough and it’ll be a truly sad day when our son leaves to attend school next year!

Joanne Gallagher Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2022
Joanne Gallagher

My childcare journey began in 2018 as supply staff, before becoming a full-time practitioner and then a room leader in 2019. In 2022, I joined Tynemouth Nursery Group as Preschool Room Leader, progressing to Deputy Manager in 2023 and now Nursery Manager.

The most rewarding part of my role is seeing children grow in confidence and independence every day. I’m passionate about creating a nurturing environment and supporting families throughout their journey with us.

I recently completed Mental Health First Aid training, recognising its importance for children, staff, and parents alike. Outside of nursery life, I love spending time with my little boy and enjoying weekends with family or at the gym.
