Review from Shaun D (Father of Child) published on 28 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended Shotley Bridge nursery since the age of 9 months and is now 2 years old. He has progressed so much from his time at the nursery, enjoying his time around other children and receiving first class care from the staff. I work away from home and find the app used by the nursery to keep parents updated with their child’s activities very useful. In particular, the efforts by the staff to include photos and descriptions of various fun and educational tasks my son has been involved in.

Review from Y R (Father of Child) published on 28 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have had our two boys at the nursery and can't praise enough the commitment of the staff. They are extremely engaging, caring and diligent. Their professionalism is unparalleled. The parent zone app allows parents to be kept abreast of the children's development in the nursery, from something as basic as eating habits to various milestones. Manners, courtesy and tidiness are also key features taught at nursery and I have witnessed them in our older boy. This nursery deserves high praise for what they do.

Fantastic Nursery! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Both my kids adore their teachers and love going and come away every day with stories of what they’ve done, what they’ve learned and also what they’ve eaten :) I’m really pleased we found the nursery it’s a really positive influence on our children’s development

Shotley Bridge Nursery School Ltd is a wonderful nursery. The staff are lovely and are doing wonders for my daughter. The environment is very well designed and each room has an assortment of areas/activities for the children to take part in. Healthy snacks and food are provided as part of the cost. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Review from Lucy L (Mother of Child) published on 27 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son absolutely loves going to nursery. The facilities are excellent and the staff are very caring and professional. My son was quite shy when he started going to nursery, and the staff have worked with him and nurtured him and his confidence has grown so much.
There are exciting activities every day and the children play outside in all weathers, which my son absolutely loves. There are also lots of extracurricular activities which are great for the children and the parents.

My son loves his food and eats a wide variety of meals and snacks at the nursery.

Review from M A (Grandfather of Child) published on 27 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a retired primary school deputy headmaster, I have a great deal of knowledge of the educational system. Although I never taught this age range I do know about management practices in educational establishments as well as teaching methods applied and interaction between teacher and pupil based on professional standards. From my knowledge of Shotley Bridge Nursery, I can say with confidence that the relationships between the children and the staff are excellent. From first-hand observation, I have found the management of the establishment to be outstanding, in part due to the exceptional work of the nursery staff. I would not hesitate to recommend this establishment to parents wishing to send their child to a nursery whose reputation, teaching practices and child welfare practices are of an outstanding level.

Overall Experience

I could not fault Shotley Bridge Nursery School Ltd, my daughter loves attending.

The staff are friendly, caring and go out of their way to ensure my daughter feels at ease and safe whilst there!

They arrange many events out of school hours which means giving up their own time so that the children can have fun. We have attended many of the events including a Halloween party which my daughter loved.

I always praise this nursery when discussing with friends and I know many of my friends have chosen this nursery for their children on the back of my recommendation.

Review from Laura S (Mother of Child) published on 26 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been going to Shotley Bridge Nursery School for almost 2 years and I've never regretted the decision once. The staff are always friendly and approachable. They're happy to help in any way they can. They genuinely care about the children attending the nursery. They organise lots of events for you to attend the nursery also (mothers & fathers day, Christmas etc).
They keep you updated on everything your child has done including eating and sleeping.
As part of a normal day at nursery, children have the opportunity to attend other activities as well including French and football lessons.
My daughter's confidence has grown with the help of attending this nursery and I would highly recommend it to everyone!

It will be a sad day when my daughter's journey with Shotley Bridge Nursery School ends. However, I am confident she will be fully prepared for the next chapter in her life thanks to her time at this nursery.

Overall Experience

This nursery has been fabulous for my son. He has been able to take part in lots of activities and everyone mentions how much he has grown and developed since going to nursery. His keyworker is great with him and shows real interest in his wants and needs. She is also always there for him if he needs a cuddle. ParentZone is a great way that this nursery updates you on how your child is and I love seeing the daily photos.
