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.

The staff are all very caring and personable towards the children. They provide excellent feedback and give helpful tips on how to encourage positive behaviour and learning at home. They do a great mix of activities with the children, both inside and outside the nursery. The children often go out twice
a day and take trips to the local market, station and ball court, which they love.

My little girl is always extremely happy to go to Zeeba Dalston and I cannot praise enough the qualities of the team working there. The carers are very professional, dedicated and lovely and created genuine relationships with my daughter. Her development is amazing since she's in the nursery, and I
know she feels safe, stimulated and cared for when she's there.

My son started Zeeba nursery when he was 4-month-old and he absolutely loves it since. They were the ones introducing him to solids and to so many other things. They are doing a great job, are friendly on top of it.

We have two children attending Zeeba Dalston - a pre-toddler and pre-schooler. We are very happy with the staff and ethos of Zeeba Dalston, and we feel our children are known by all staff and cared for well. There are definitely some staff who shine bright and their caring nature gives us peace of mind
when we leave our children. There is an open door policy which makes dialogue between staff, management and parents easy.

Friendly, approachable and professional management and staff. My kids have always been happy at Zeeba and I’ve always known they were in safe hands. The carers are warm and caring. The manager is keen and efficient in resolving any issues that might come up and answer any questions parents may have.
My children were never a number but part of what felt like an extended family. My eldest recently started reception and I can already notice the strong learning foundations and confidence Zeeba has helped develop in my child. I’ll definitely recommend Zeeba Dalston.

Review from Caroline O (Mother of Child) published on 2 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Zeeba is a super setting for my child. He is happy every day and has made lovely friends. He forms special relationships with his key workers and is comfortable to be left with them every day.
He learns well and has a range of stimulating activities every day which are well organised and laid out
in the room in an accessible way. He talks about the different activities he has done in the day.
He enjoys the food at Zeeba. It is healthy and varied and the menus are organised in the reception area. The children get a chance to cook in the preschool room. He loves the range of outings planned by Zeeba every day often twice a day which includes the library, station, park, market and other places of interest. This to me as a parent is more valuable than a permanent outside space as my son gets to experience a new trip every day. It’s often a challenge to keep an outside space engaging and exciting.
I feel that my child is safe at Zeeba and the management team are always so involved.

My son has been attending Zeeba since he was just 1 year old. The staff is lovely and caring - children are well looked after and they learn and grow in a very positive environment which is very well structured. The lack of an outside area is made up by regular outings that my son enjoys very much!

This nursery is absolutely great and I would strongly recommend it to anyone. The curriculum is covering every part of the developing child (alphabet, numbers, animals, religions, cooking lessons), the staff are really caring, helpful and nice people who always try to act in child's best interest. My
3-year-old son absolutely loves this nursery and enjoys every moment spent in it.

Zeeba Daycare Dalston is a very good nursery. Our daughter looks forward to going every day and equally loves painting and water play. We love the updates on tapestry and we are happy to see our daughter has made some close friends. We have good communication with (and from) management and most of the
staff, we would recommend the nursery without hesitation.

We have been made to feel very comfortable, given all the information we have needed. My child has settled in to pre toddlers very well and I'm confident that the staff take very good care of him. I feel the children are very loved. The environment is inviting and children have loads of fun.

The nursery is good, reliable. After significant staff changes this year, things have settled now. They are clearly investing in infrastructure and we can see the benefits. (New toys, air conditioning). Not cheap - yet aligned to central London prices.

Our son has been at Zeeba Daycare Dalston Square since he was 11 months old. We are very happy with the nursery and our son really enjoys attending. Both his keyworkers have been amazing. They have listened carefully to our son's needs and he loves them dearly. Any issues we have ever had have been
resolved quickly and given due importance. The facilities are good and the staff ensure there is something new to do each day. The early opening is fantastic for parents as it offers flexibility. I highly recommend this nursery.

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.
