The Nursery

I honestly couldn't recommend The Nursery enough. my child has additional needs, and from the very beginning the staff have gone above and beyond to make sure she feels safe, understood, included and supported.

They have taken the time to get to know my child as an individual, understand how she communicates and learns, and adapt things around her needs. Their patience, kindness and understanding have meant the absolute world to me as her mam.

Watching my child grow and develop during her time at nursery has been amazing. The progress she has made, the confidence she has gained and all the little achievements along the way have made me so proud. I truly believe the support and encouragement she has received at nursery has played a huge part in this.

A huge thank you to every member of staff for everything

My son has been going there for 3 years and all I can say is that you will not find a better place to put your child the staff are fantastic and you can tell they really enjoyed the work they do they are there for the parents as much as they are for the child. You will not find a better place in the area for your child and one staff in particular is absolutely fantastic you will not find a better teacher to take care of your child honestly if you are thinking of going all I can say is one and see how happy your child is in this environment they are fantastic every one of them

My son has recently started at the nursery and could not be happier there. The staff and management are all lovely and highly knowledgeable. They have been excellent at encouraging my son's development through messy play and a huge range of activities that the nursery offers. They've also been great at encouraging my son to eat a wider range of foods. I can already see the positive influence the nursery is having on his development and well-being. He literally runs in there on a morning, he's so excited to see what the day brings! Highly recommended.

My son attends this nursery and I couldn't recommend it enough. Since my 5 year old started here 5 years ago, I have never once had a single issue. Throughout, the care has been outstanding. It recently was closed, but has reopened again with brand new staff and management. It's amazingly clean and tidy and with so much to offer for the children. Food always smells delicious also. My son has been back there for just over 2 weeks now, and he absolutely loves going. He asks to go on the days he doesn't go, and that for me speaks volumes. He has bonded brilliantly with all the staff. The facilities are amazing, they do a massive range of activities and have a child focused care, which is what is needed. It's situated in the heart of Consett, surrounded by 4 schools for older siblings. All the staff are fantastic professionals with a lot of years' experience in childcare and they know their stuff. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and my son loves them already, which is what you need.

Such a lovely nursery who go out of their way for the children to make it a special place. My son has enjoyed coming here every day for 2 and half years and has made many special friendships and has been looked after amazingly, especially during the pandemic. My child also had allergies that were catered to above and beyond making sure he never felt left out and always had something special for occasions like Christmas and birthdays. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone.

My child has been attending the nursery for 3 years now heading off to reception and I can’t fault them they brought on her speaking, communication, manners, potty training and many more she’s now one happy 4-year-old and I’m grateful the nursery were a part of that journey the staff are remarkable friendly and they listen to any concerns and act accordingly. I could see from how excited my little girl was to get to nursery and see her friends and spoke highly of them. I would recommend this nursery 10 times over. I can’t thank the staff enough for what they’ve done for my daughter. They have a Facebook page for parents and they are constantly updating us on that. I find that very helpful and it keeps us posted about our children or any activities happening as I lose letters and with 2 children, things can easily be forgotten. I could go on with positive reviews. I’ll leave it at this. Thank you to the nursery.

The Nursery were so amazing and lovely to my twins. They helped them come out of their shell and now are ready primary school. Thank you so much to all the Nursery staff, really grateful for all your work.

Thank you all.

He has only been going to nursery since April! Which makes this nursery amazing as they have built up a special bond with him already!

Since coming to the nursery and getting her a place here, the nursery staff have been fantastic. I was a little worried about the start she had in life and didn’t like being separated from me, but the staff were very reassuring and looked after her. Since starting last Easter, she has really come out of her shell, and I get constant glowing reports. I thank the staff for their continued support.

I recommend The Nursery Consett to anyone who asks me my opinion on local nurseries as it has been a Godsend for us.

My little girl has only been going here for a few months, but she has come on so much with her speech and her confidence. The staff have been great with her and always tell us how she has been throughout the day. She looks forward to going every time.

Absolutely lovely staff who have the children’s best interest at heart! Both my children attend this nursery, one full time and one wrap-around care, and they really enjoy it as there is always lots to do, and the staff go out the way to ensure activities are available. Plenty of support for parents, especially during the pandemic to assist with childcare.

My daughter has attended this nursery since she 6-months and is now in preschool, and all I can say is wow, what a fantastic nursery! Watching my daughter develop with them is amazing, and they really do go out their way to help with anything, which will suit you as a parent and also a child. Thank you for being a great nursery!

My daughter started this day nursery in January, and she has come on so much with her speech and language and engaging in other activities with other children. She goes in and out of the nursery with no issues, which makes me feel that she is very happy and settled in the setting; this makes me feel that she is making trusting relationships with her nursery nurses.

Both of my sons have attended the nursery, and I could not recommend them enough. My youngest is currently in the baby room, and the staff are fantastic with him. He has come on so much since starting when he was 9-months. Would highly recommend!

I have had the pleasure of sending both of my children to this nursery. The staff are truly amazing with the kids and are there to support the parents in any way they can. Nothing is too much. I can't thank them enough for what they have done for both children.

Both of my children have attended the nursery since 9-months-old. The staff have always gone above and beyond, and my boys have loved every minute at the nursery. The girls have implemented ideas that have helped them both overcome their own struggles and helped to progress. Their parent communication is also second to none.

The staff are super friendly, and he settled in straight away! He also has additional needs, which were met before he even started and plans put into place for him. Within 2 weeks of him being there, he was awarded his one to one, which was amazing! I can’t thank the girls at the nursery enough for all they are doing for my little boy.

Both my granddaughters have gone to the nursery (youngest still there till July). I have to say, the staff are absolutely amazing, extremely professional, nothing has ever been too much trouble to them, even in the most testing times in what's been an awful year, the staff always greet you and the children with a smile. They have gone above and beyond to make the nursery a safe enjoyable environment for all children. I cannot thank them enough for all their hard work, and the start they have given my granddaughters - thank you, girls. This is an excellent nursery, and I highly recommend it to anyone.
