Review from F D (Father of Child) published on 29 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We brought our 10 month old daughter at Battle Hill nursery after we saw around 6 other nurseries.


The staff is friendly, kind and most importantly, patient with our daughter, helping her to settle in.


We receive daily notifications of our daughter's progress. Our questions via the app are answered

promptly during the day.


There is a detailed itinerary provided in the app, but the lovely staff always tell us in person at pick up, how the day went.


Our daughter eats well so far so shout out to the chef. Food has variety and there are a lot of fruit snacks offered during the day.


Sun cream is also provided by the nursery which is a nice bonus.


So far we are happy with everything but especially the staff !

Tynemouth nursery have been amazing with my son (and my other 2 children in the past) warm welcome, friendly staff who listen and do great hand overs at drop off and collection. Lots of different activities and always looking for new and fun ways to encourage fun play and learning. Outdoor area has
lots to engage with. Great communications via the app. You can tell the staff really care about the children and build a great relationship with them. I drop my son off and feel at ease when I drop him off and he goes in very happy and excited which is a credit to them. They have been very helpful with offering advice when asked. A lovely nursery in a lovely setting would highly recommend.

My son and I really like this place. There is a very warm and welcoming atmosphere, staff is very friendly and professional. My son didn't know English language before he started to attend this nursery, but now he is able to sing nursery rhymes, speak a little bit of English and understand English speech.
I'm so happy that my son has an opportunity to attend this wonderful place and I really appreciate all things that staff do for him.

My little boy has been coming to this nursery since he was 4 month old, he has just turned 2. The staff helped settle my little one in as well as settle me, they are great with adapting to his needs and my many wishes. My little boy has created amazing bonds with the staff, always shouting for them
at home as well as saying bye to them numerous times whilst on the car journey home. The app they use is great to see a little insight into his day whilst he's there seeing how much fun he is having! I love reading the termly reports to see how he is progressing as well as his observations, it really puts my mind at ease, knowing he's in outstanding care! I think all the extracurricular activities whilst he's at nursery are amazing, such as hartbeeps, baby ballet and other extra activities. I can't thank them enough for all their help and how well my little boy has progressed and developed since starting. They've really helped shape him into the funny, adventurous little boy he is today!

My children visit the Tynemouth Nursery at Battle Hill. It's a cozy, but really nice place. The girls who work there are always friendly, and kind and they treat all of the children like their own.
The children feel like at home.

My daughter currently goes here and is thriving. All the staff are helpful friendly and create a family feel environment. Management keep us well informed through the app. 3 members of staff in particular put on the most fun activities for the children even the chef gets involved and provides recipes
and has them decorating biscuits on special occasions. A special mention though to my daughter's key worker, who knows how to bring the best out of my daughter and is always caring and kind. It really is a special little nursery due to the staff.

My son loves going to the nursery and he comes back happy and jumping.
They take good care of him and he gets his cuddles whenever he needs them.
The staff members are good and they answer my questions and doubt.
It's a good nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended the nursery for just over a year and he absolutely loves it. Staff are amazing with him and really take the time to understand his likes and dislikes. Staff are always chatty and friendly when dropping off and picking up. The managers are great and just as involved with all the children.
The food always has a good varied choice throughout the week and my son is much less fussy and more willing to try new things because of it.
From the second we went for our viewing of the nursery to the present I absolutely love this nursery and its staff. Staff have always very helpful and have been so understanding. The nursery is a lovely size and the activities they put on for the children are great. The sign on the door says 'a home away from home' and without a doubt, I believe the staff here have worked so hard to achieve this. My partner and I have nothing but amazing things to say about this nursery.

Staff are super friendly, answer any concerns I have. My two children enjoy going, no complaints.
Food options are great. Children could get out more/provide more outfoor trips/walks in woodland areas/libraries. Excellent for communication.

My son loves coming to nursery, he talks positively about his day at nursery and the activities he does. He is very well looked after and the staff are invested in his care. I wouldn't have my son looked after by any other nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.910)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Tynemouth Nursery at Battle Hill 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.910 for Tynemouth Nursery at Battle Hill is calculated as follows: ( (146 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.91
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tynemouth Nursery at Battle Hill is based on 13 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
