Kids 1st Durham

A recommended nursery with caring staff.

Thank you for all you do.

My twins have been at the nursery just over a year and the staff have all been absolutely fantastic. I'm amazed when I go in for drop off and pick up that all the staff (including those from rooms my children have never been in) know their names and greet them. I love that they are treated as two individuals, their interests and needs are met and supported individually.

Staff are knowledgeable and passionate about their job and management are always helpful and accommodating.

The staff are very friendly. My child always happy to go and learns every time she goes to nursery. She always get to try new flavours that she may not at home through her dinners and lunches. The updates on the the app that staff use is very helpful and allows an insight on how my child is doing.

The director and the team at Kids 1st are absolutely fabulous! My son joined around 6 months ago and all the staff have made the transition from home to nursery so smooth. I can't thank the staff enough for there patience, kind words and keeping me updated about my sons progress. We have noticed how much he has developed since coming to this nursery and I'd highly recommend Kids 1st to any mum and dad out there!

Thanks to all the girls for all the work you do, taking care of the most important part of our lives.

A definite highlight over the years has been the outdoor space and he'd happily tell us about riding the tricycles being the favourite part of his day.

I couldn't rate Kids 1st Durham more highly for the care and support they provide and how positively this has impacted on our son.

Very happy with my choice of childcare provider.

My son has a wonderful time every time he is in Kids 1st Durham, it makes working so much easier knowing he is happy and incredibly well looked after by the fabulous staff and management team. Management are extremely helpful and always attempts to accommodate to any changes in our schedule, and the staff couldn't do enough for my son; they have a genuine connection with him that makes us very happy to know he is getting plenty of love when he is at nursery.

Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and I enjoy seeing his progress each day on the app.

My daughter is thriving and learning so many new skills at Kids 1st Durham, her school readiness is supported daily and she thoroughly enjoys her days at nursery. All the staff caring for her are supportive and informative and have a real passion for what they do.

We couldn't thank Kids 1st enough for putting their heart and soul into the love and care they have given our children and we couldn't recommend more!

The staff are fantastic with my son. He has some allergies but nothing is too much trouble.

Our experience of the nursery has been completely positive. The staff are friendly and welcoming and take the time to get to know every child and their family. The nursery is always clean and welcoming and displays and activities in the rooms are refreshed regularly. Special days are celebrated such as the recent Royal Wedding. Our little boy has loved coming to Kids 1st and we have always felt completely reassured that he is being well cared for. Thank you!

Management are extremely helpful and always attempt to accommodate to any changes in our schedule, and the carers couldn’t do enough for my son; they have a genuine connection with him that makes me very happy to know he is getting plenty of love when he is at nursery. There are a range of activities they provide for him that encourage all areas of his development, he always has done something new and exciting when they tell me how his day has been at hand over. We’ve had a great experience from the very beginning at Kids 1st Durham!

Both my daughters struggled to settle into nursery when they first started but with the wonderful support, patience and care given by all the staff (carers and management) they are now happy and I am so grateful for everything they have done and continue to do for my girls. I have also felt that the carers have a genuine connection with my daughters and they are very very well looked after.

Thank you, Kids 1st.
