Zone4kids at Whitley Lodge First School

Every morning when I drop my daughter off at nursery, she runs straight in and doesn’t look back. This gives us so much confidence that she loves being there. All the staff are really friendly and all make so much effort with my daughter when she arrives. She is also developing very well and is always coming home saying new words and singing new songs. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter, who is 2 years old, is at Zone4kids, but my son was there previously. From the moment they started, both kids have loved it and we have felt happy leaving them with the fantastic staff, knowing they are going to be well cared for. I would not hesitate to recommend Zone4kids.

My little girl started at Zone4kids in May when we moved to the area. We didn't know anyone in the north east and my little girl is extremely shy and missed all of her friends from back home. It was a really hard time, but the staff at Zone4kids made her (and us!) feel so unbelievably welcome. They have been so kind and they always greet you with a smile and great energy. The staff at Zone4kids are truly wonderful - I am so grateful we found such a fantastic playschool!

I would not leave my children with anyone else. I cannot rate this childcare any higher. They have looked after both of my children throughout the years and provide a loving and educational environment.

Lovely staff. Great nursery. Fantastic activities. My child settled really well.

Both of my children have attended Zone4kids and now my youngest has started school, we continue to use the after school care here. All of the staff are lovely and make great relationships with the children. There's a great range of activities available and a great outdoor space, to play in. We also, use the school holiday club. there are varied activities from day to day and my children always enjoy it. The food is varied and sounds delicious. We would not hesitate to recommend Zone4kids to anyone.

Absolutely outstanding level of support and care provided to my son, over the last couple of years. The staff are brilliant and always ensure, I have a full understanding of the daily activities my child is involved in. It is clear to me, that the staff are very dedicated and caring professionals. They are an asset, not only to the nursery but the organisation as a whole.

The staff are very friendly and caring. My daughter loves to spend time there. There is a good mix of fun and learning activities. Being located at the school she will attend in the future is very handy.

The team are super flexible too. My schedule has changed several times and the team will try their very best to accommodate what I need. The facilities are clean and spacious with a homely feel. The outside space is great with the use of the school running track, which my boy loves. The food is excellent. I wouldn’t mind an invitation to lunch one day. But above all, they keep my boy safe and educated and he loves it and so do I. 5 stars.

It’s been the best investment my husband and I could have made in our son’s early years.

We have used this nursery for both children. The staff are extremely good and have taken time to bond and form great relationships with our kids. Like any parent, we just want our children to feel safe, be happy, make friends and to learn/develop. Zone4kids ticks all of the above and I would strongly recommend this nursery to all our friends or any other parents considering this.

Both my children love it. They are always new and fun activities for them each week. All of the staff are super friendly and always very helpful with any requests or questions. They really do go above and beyond.

The variety of activities on offer engage them in learning and they love the access they have to outdoor learning. We would recommend Zone4Kids to all.

Very friendly and welcoming nursery, both my children are very happy there. The staff are approachable and most importantly, exceptionally caring.
