Overall Experience

My husband went to Nunthorpe nursery as a child and was so well cared for. It's really pleasing to say that the same care has been given to our little boy who started just after his first birthday and is now nearly two - he absolutely loves his time at nursery. The staff couldn't be more attentive, friendly and helpful if they tried - thank you all for your hard work and dedication. Looking forward to our little one growing with you!

Review from Ellie M (Mother of Child) published on 20 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My two year old has been at Nunthorpe nursery for a year now and he loves it, he asks to go on a morning and loves to give the girls a hug when he arrives and hides from me when it's time to leave!

We have noticed a great improvement in his confidence and speech. He seems to have made friends and enjoys doing a range of activities such as painting, sensory play and walks out. The nursery is easy to contact and very accommodating to last minute changes. I feel very confident in the knowledge that my child is being well looked after and is kept safe, and he adores all of the staff.

Overall Experience
A brilliant nursery that genuinely cares for the needs of the children.
My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting and the staff are wonderful.
There are numerous activities the children undertake each day, and each room is catered for the specific ages.

We are kept up to date with menus and general updates on the children which is lovely to see.

Review from Brigid H (Mother of Child) published on 19 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am so happy with the provisions, support and staff at Nunthorpe Nurseries and could not ask for better for my child.
Everyday they are happy to attend and are greeted by staff each morning who make them and me feel relaxed and at ease. They are great at picking up on any areas of support and always happy to help and point us in the right direction for additional support outside of nursery.

My child has come on immensely since being here and moving up to the different classes.

We have had a bad experience with a nursery in the past so ensuring this move was right for my little one was priority and I know I made the right decision.

Thank you all!

Overall Experience

My two boys both attend this nursery and they absolutely love it! You can tell the staff really love the children and are always so welcoming on pick ups and drop offs. Can't praise the nursery enough when it comes to flexibility too as Katie is always willing to swap days or make room for the boys when I'm struggling with childcare!

Review from M R (Mother of Child) published on 12 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy has been with the nursery for some time and he enjoys it very much. Both the children and adults are lovely and all have a fab bond. There is lots of activities to do and my little boy always comes home having done something new or different, whether this is activities planned by adults, singing nursery songs and even looking after babies. I think it is a lovely setting and find staff approachable, always available for a chat at both beginning and end of day which makes you feel comfortable leaving your little one in their care.

Review from L C (Mother of Child) published on 12 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter loves going to nursery. The staff always go above and beyond to make sure my daughter is happy and welcomed every day. They apply her cream for her eczema daily to make sure her skin doesn't get sore and always keep me updated if any changes with her skin too. They also follow dietary requirements making sure my daughter doesn't have foods that will make her poorly. Nothing is too much trouble at all. My daughter has come on so much since starting nursery at 9 months old. From just 18 months old she was amazing at drinking from an open top cup which my son certainly couldn't do at that age. My daughter loves being outside and at nursery she spends plenty of time outside, going for walks, visiting the local woods and playing with her friends in the outdoor space. We love Nunthorpe day nursery and looking forward to my son starting soon.

We have seen our 2 girls develop so much since then,because of the nursery staff, and watched them develop a bond. Overall very happy with th enursery.

Review from T G (Mother of Child) published on 29 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are incredibly caring, patient, and genuinely invested in each child's happiness and development. From day one, they made our child feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. The environment is clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully set up with engaging activities that support both learning and play. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed and reassured. It's clear how much love and effort the team puts into everything they do. We're so grateful to have found such a wonderful nursery and highly recommend it to any parent.

Amazing nursery for both my children. The manager and the team do an amazing team and go above and beyond for me when it comes to my job and the needs of my children.

I wouldn't be able to manage as well as I do without the support from Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery so thank you.

Our girls have been attending the nursery for quite a months now and go in each day with the biggest smiles on their faces and love every second.
The staff are excellent, the care they give the children is second to none and it shows in the positive relationships our children have with their teachers.

We would and have recommended Nunthorpe Nursery to many of our friends, it's a wonderful nursery and we are so glad we made the decision to send our girls here.

Review from Sarah T (Mother of Child) published on 24 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After using a previous nursery from 9 to 17 months, I was worried about the move to Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery. I have no idea why! My little boy loves going to the nursery, he comes home telling me about it. He is happy to be left and waves me off every time. The staff are all amazing and friendly and take the time to talk to you about what has happened that day.

Since starting at Nunthorpe his speech and communication skills have developed brilliantly.

Hello, I'm Katie.
I have an NNEB and foundation degree in Early years childhood studies and have worked in childcare for 32 years here at Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery. I started out as an Early year's educator, working my way up to deputy manager and now proud to be manager. I take great pride in my nursery and love to welcome new and returning families. We have a fantastic fun and safe environment. I have lots of experience with Sen and higher needs children and enjoy working with families to provide the best possible care and education for them. I believe having a strong team helps children achieve their individual learning goals by working together and working alongside parents and families collectively.

I look forward to welcoming you to our nursery.
