Zeeba Daycare Dalston is a private day care nursery situated in the Labyrinth Tower which is part of Dalston Square and is located within walking distance of Dalston Kingsland and Dalston Junction Overground Stations.

The nursery is open full-time from 7.30 am – 6.30 pm caring for children aged from 3 months to 5 years.

The environments have been designed to cater for the individual ages and stages of the children and to provide a caring and nurturing environment which stimulates both curiosity and imagination.

The rooms are equipped with state of the art educational resources, providing environments rich in exciting and engaging learning opportunities and experiences which are tailored to meet children's individual interests.

Children go on daily outings to ensure regular opportunities for learning outdoors. The nursery regularly visits Hackney City Farm to help children learn more about the natural world and caring for animals, and also frequent visits to the local basketball courts. This gives children the freedom to explore and be physically active.

The nursery's chef prepares the children's meals fresh on site each day. Alongside their chef, the team run regular baking sessions with the children which they really enjoy.

The nursery also offers extracurricular activities which include yoga sessions and music and drama classes on Tuesdays.

From September, Dalston will be offering fully funded places for 9 month olds - book your space today.

We have had a really positive experience at Zeeba. Our little boy is really happy every day when we arrive, he runs up the stairs and is excited to get in. The team are all really friendly, caring and have gone over and above to make sure my son is settled and happy. The manager takes a personal interest
in each child, making sure the family are happy. I would recommend it!

Everyone at the nursery is very friendly and welcoming. My son settled in very quickly and is now very happy at drop off and pick ups. Although there is no outside space they go on regular trips which has taught road safety. My sons language has improved since going as have his eating skills.

When starting at Zeeba in January 2024 it felt quite unorganised, no induction was given with relevant information like who would be keyworker and what to expect from settling in days. Since starting however my daughter has really settled and now in the 2025 year she has a great relationship with key
worker and other staff. All the staff are extremely nice and friendly and I feel good knowing my child is in a setting where she is develops her confidence.

We have had such a wonderful experience with this nursery. The staff are incredibly professional, experienced and genuinely caring. They always take the time to listen to any requests and they respond with such attentiveness.
My daughter absolutely loves going. She comes home excited to tell us all
about her day. We are so so grateful for the warm, nurturing environment they have created. Highly recommend, and I will definitely be sending my next child here too!

Review from Lucy P (Mother of Child) published on 3 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We've had a fantastic experience with this nursery, having sent both of our children here. Our eldest left last year for school, and we couldn't be happier with how well they were prepared-confident, independent, and ready to learn. The staff have been consistently amazing: warm, professional, and genuinely
caring.
There's a lovely balance of fun and structure, with a great daily routine that makes the children feel safe and settled. The range of activities is excellent, from creative play to drama sessions that our kids absolutely loved. The food is varied and healthy, and the team always go the extra mile to support each child individually.
We're so grateful for everything they've done for our family-this nursery has given our children the best possible start.
Reply from Nadia Stancheva, Manager at Zeeba Daycare Dalston Square

My son has been staying at Zeeba for more than 2 years now, the experience has been way better than what I expected. The staff, the facilities, all activities they do have encouraged my son to improve every day. They have also been supportive with my son's needs.
I would highly recommend this nursery

My daughter is happy going to the nursery (for almost two years). She likes her practitioners and peers. She is happy about the activities they do (recently they added a drama class on Tuesdays). The staff are very experienced and I like how they communicate with the kids. I definitely can recommend

My son has been at Zeeba for 18 months and he's always so happy when he's there. The staff are all so positive and kind, and the management are really approachable and flexible, responding to the needs of my child and our family as they change over time. I've seen my son become more confident and social
and eat food I'd never imagine he'd be happy to try!

Our little boy started Zeeba when he was almost 11 months old, and he has absolutely loved it! He has grown so much, and all the staff are always so lovely and kind. We will really miss his key worker, and the manager is always there to help wherever she can.
Thank you, everyone, at Zeeba; we will
miss you! We are moving to a new house, and he has such fond memories of our time there!

Zeeba has been an excellent nursery for our two children. The staff are very communicative and caring and have built up excellent and deep relationships with our children. The management is also responsive to issues and concerns that parents may have. We would certainly recommend Zeeva to other parents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at Zeeba since he was 10 months old. He has been in the baby room, pre-toddlers and toddlers. His keyworker and the other teachers have been kind, caring and attentive. I trust them entirely with his well-being and happiness. He has always eaten and slept well there (better than at home!).
He enjoys the activities, learning and being with other children. We love hearing about his day from his teachers and having the opportunity to see him playing or listening to stories when we collect him. We also love receiving his little reports and photos on the app every few weeks. The manager and deputy manager are lovely, warm and very communicative/responsive, as well as 'on it'. The teachers have supported us with weaning, naps and potty training. There are cute dress-up days, or themed days, baked goods and artwork that come home every now and then. The parents are a nice group of people and whenever you walk into the nursery, it's filled with fun, busyness and happy children.

I highly recommend Zeeba Daycare to anyone searching for a nursery in Dalston. Zeeba staff are very caring and nurturing to the children and keep the kids continuously engaged in different activities. My son genuinely enjoys his days at Zeeba and has formed strong bonds with his key workers. The manager
and the management team are very professional and knowledgeable, taking the time with all parents to ensure all concerns are addressed. Every parent I've spoken to at Zeeba have shared similar feedback with me. Thanks to the staff for all they do!

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.259)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.259) out of 10 for Zeeba Daycare Dalston Square is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.697 for Zeeba Daycare Dalston Square is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.697
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.562 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Zeeba Daycare Dalston Square is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 89 number of registered child places is 17.8. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.8 = 0.562
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
