Copper Beech House, 6 The Cedars, Ashbrooke, Sunderland SR2 7TW
The Cedars Nursery in Sunderland offers on-site education and enrichment for children of all backgrounds and cultures. They are passionate about outdoor learning and promoting Speech and Language. They work closely with the education community to provide the best support for families.
They follow the Early Years Curriculum and are big believers in 'learning through play'. Twice each day they have adult-led activities in the classroom and in the garden based on the learning goals for that age group.
Each child has their own Development File where their progress is tracked, and they encourage parent/carer contribution. They hold frequent 'Coffee Mornings' where parents/carers can come in and informally chat to staff about their child's development and meet other parents/carers.
They have very well-trained staff; staff have a minimum of NVQ Level 3 (except for apprentices who are working towards the qualification) and boast 3 Early Years Teachers (an equivalent of a PGCE that specialises in 0 to 5 year olds).
Healthy meals are cooked fresh on site and they have a 5* hygiene rating. They cater for all food intolerances and allergies and there is always a vegetarian option.
They are based in a beautiful Grade 2 listed Victorian Mansion house which has large rooms with high ceilings and gorgeous windows which provide plenty of natural light. The private and secure garden boasts a woodland garden (where they practice Forest School), a bug hotel, allotments where they grow their own fruit and vegetables, and plenty of fun and safe areas to play. Except in times where the garden is deemed unsafe (for example extreme wind or heavy snow) children go outside twice daily.
The ground floor is accessible by wheelchair. There is on-site parking.

The Review Score of 9.7 (maximum of 10) for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 27 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.91 for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland is calculated as follows: ( (297 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.91
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.802 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 16.2 positive Reviews (81 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 13 Reviews ÷ 16.2 Target = 0.802
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland has a Review Score of 9.7 (9.712)
Review submitted from a Website Submission by E B (Mother of Child) on Tuesday 10 April 2018. Relates to April 2018.
My 2-year-old accesses provision here and I could not be happier. Staff are warm and welcoming. The nursery-home communication is good. Facilities and safety are excellent. My little one always seems to have enjoyed their nursery sessions. The variety of meals and snacks is great. I am very pleased with the range of activities planned in order to support my little one's development. My little one is always able to tell me what they have done at nursery and comes home happy. I am glad I chose to enrol my little one here.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Sara H (Mother of Child) on Tuesday 10 April 2018. Relates to September 2017.
My daughter left the nursery to start school in September and she still talks about the staff and her friends from Cedars nursery everyday. I couldn't be happier with the level of care and encouragement my daughter received in the 3 years she was there. Her love of the outdoors and desire to learn was more than met and the life skills she has gained when there have given her an excellent start in school.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback Sara, as you know your daughter was a joy to have at nursery. Her smile was infectious and her willingness to help was fantastic. I think in the end she could have actually been employed as a member of staff.
Review submitted from a Website Submission by Jo W (Mother of Child) on Tuesday 10 April 2018. Relates to April 2018.
My daughter has been attending this nursery for approximately six months, the staff here have been nothing but amazing! She loves it here and even when she has little wobbles of wanting to come home with Mammy, the staff deal with her quickly and she settles down fine. My daughter has also had some diet changes since she started and the staff have been very helpful with her changes! The outdoor area is amazing and I would highly recommend to anyone.

A wonderful nursery. I moved my little girl to this nursery from another nursery and have seen instant amazing results. A huge amount of support with speech development, toilet training, confidence and imaginative play. A warm friendly and calm nursery where I know my little one is happy content and loved. They are helping to shape my little girl into the funny confident and independent person she is becoming. The range of activities she is doing daily is also fantastic. A huge thank you to all of the nursery nurses.

My daughter loves coming to nursery. As well as feeling she is well cared for, it is also lovely to hear about what she has been up to. She comes home singing songs, a great preparation for school and the routine that it brings.

I can't say enough good things about the nursery. The staff make it the amazing place it is. My son has come on so well since starting, his speech/walking etc has shown vast improvement and growth. I am over the moon.

My child has been in/out of hospital and the flexibility and understanding of the nursery has been fantastic. My child's key worker has provided continuous feedback that I can pass on to consultants, either verbally or in writing. Every day since starting The Cedars my child has been confident, happy and it's always a good sign when she waves goodbye with a smile when dropping her off. Brilliant nursery from the beginning.

I am very happy with the facilities and the varied activities the nursery offers. My daughter is very happy here and I have recommended it to others. My only negative comment which is very minor is that the daily report can be very generic. While I appreciate why this may be, it seems as though the nap times are not relevant to my child and the information of what and how much has been eaten is not always completed or detailed.

My son loves going to The Cedars, he gets on very well with all the staff who are very lovely and well liked. He enjoys the singing and learning new songs and the meals, they get are varied and healthly. He gets plenty of outdoor time in the garden which was a big reason for choosing Cedars. Overall a very lovely nursery which will be a big miss when he leaves.

Hi Lisa, thank you for your fantastic review.

My little boy started Cedars Nursery as a shy quiet 8 month old baby, and is now leaving to start reception as a confident cleaver 4 year old. Cedars Nursery have taught him so much that I couldn't possibly have taught him at home. My little boy loves the girls (nursery nurses) and has enjoyed every minute since coming here. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery to my friends and family and I will use this nursery if we have any more children.

My son has attended the Cedars for the last 2 and a half years. During that time, I have nothing but praise for the staff and management team. The girls are all friendly and supportive, know my son well and always have individual feedback about his day.
Events are well organised and the management are informative and professional.
Facilities are brilliant, they have a wonderful garden area and the building is bright and decorated.
Hours are flexible, and they are always happy to accommodate to individual children with regards to medications, allergies, parental requests.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone!
