Brilliant nursery, my little girl always goes in happy and comes away having a lovely fun filled day. All staff are great and always happy to tell you what your child has been up to that day. Food is always great and love that it is all home cooked on the premises.

They've been fantastic in settling Alfie in, they've worked very hard to engage him and always greet us positively. Plus they really know Alfie and what he has been doing / his needs.
He has gone from not settling very well to absolutely loving it in a very short space of time so thank you to all.

The kids get some amazing meals from the chef and the new management team are adding their stamp to the nursery. The main strength is the nursery colleagues who work tirelessly to make it an enjoyable experience for the kids with lots of leaning and fun at the same time.

Our child has really enjoyed his time at this nursery. Under the new management system I can see lots of positive changes (not that it was awful prior), the garden is better utilised and the children are encouraged to grow vegetables and learn about nature. This nursery are excellent at reading with the children and having themed weeks, which we can then continue at home.
The only thing I wish they'd do more is update parents on what our children are doing each week. They have the app but updates are very sparse, currently 2 this year on the child with photos.
The staff seem to really care about the children, and the manager is excellent.

Our daughter is coming to the end of her time at Ashington Nursery and we couldn't have asked for a better setting. She has had the most wonderful 4 years of play, nurture and development from the amazing staff who show such care and attention. Her key workers have always supported her and us through milestones, struggles and achievements, getting to know her so well and as a result we have a confident little girl, ready to start school in September! The nursery offer a lovely range of activities and opportunities both inside and outside in the fantastic garden! She always comes out smiling with a bag full of drawings and crafts she has completed that day! The recent graduation event was so well organised and was such a lovely way to finish her time at the nursery with her friends. We can't thank you enough for the love and care that you show day in, day out. Special shout out to one member of staff who our daughter adores and to another, who has taken the time to develop our daughters love of learning!

My Daughter started in September 2024 and was welcomed with such love and care. Her keyworker is amazing with her and mentioned that speech therapy was need for my daughter (something a different nursery failed to help with) which was addressed and dealt with immediately. Communication throughout the day of what the children have been up to, with pictures is so lovely. Every afternoon on pick up we get a run down of her day has been (good or bad). One lady has been working with her to help with pronouncing words and stringing sentences and the difference is amazing! Other ladies are always there with literal open arms which just makes the start of the day so fun! They have a fab manager and you can see how much fun the children have throughout the day! I can't thank all the staff enough for everything they have done for my daughter. Would recommend to all parents who are thinking of putting their child into nursery!

Our son started in the baby snug a year ago, he settled so quickly at the nursery. We get good updates on the app throughout the day and a more detailed update at the end of the day. As parents, we find these updates excellent. Our son's key worker has been amazing helping with his development from weaning to his speech, we have regular catch-ups on how he is doing and what they can do to support him.
All of the baby snug staff know what our son's interests are and ensure that the activities set out for the day include his interests. They also know his favourite song to play! If his key worker has left for the day, we still get a very detailed rundown of his day from other staff which just shows that the communication between the baby snug team is great and that all staff have a good bond with our son. He is so happy at the end of the day he doesn't want to leave.

Our son started nursery in April 2024 in the Toddler Den. We cannot thank the team enough for their support, encouragement and overall engagement in making all of us feel comfortable and confident from day one. He has been thriving ever since, really looking forward to going to nursery every day - and even being reluctant to be picked up at the end of the day as he does not want the fun to stop! Everyone on the team is so friendly, they know all of the children very well and make sure they grow into themselves and develop their unique skills and personalities. The nursery has a very familiar, welcoming feeling and there's always a great vibe of conviviality and fun whenever we go in for drop off/ pick up. Staff and management have gone above and beyond to cater for our child who suffers from an allergy, and we really feel he is in safe hands.
We are so happy, and would 100% recommend.

We would really recommend this nursery. The staff are super friendly and thoughtful planning out activities and keeping us updated. Our two children really enjoy their time in the baby room and preschool and have built special bonds with the team. The new garden is fantastic and it is evident that the children think so too, outdoor play is really encouraged and the children are able to mix and play together.
The baby room has been extra supportive with our youngest and we receive some great updates and photos throughout the day, where we can see what activities they are up to with their friends. They eat better than us with their onsite chef and often end up eating seconds or even thirds! We are very happy with our experience which is largely due to the amazing caring staff and management team - they are a real asset to the nursery.

Good morning, thank you for taking the time out of your day to leave such a wonderful review! We love our outdoor play and firmly believe that children thrive and flourish in nature! The children and practitioners all love their new garden too and are spending as much time out there as possible!...
Good morning, thank you for taking the time out of your day to leave such a wonderful review! We love our outdoor play and firmly believe that children thrive and flourish in nature! The children and practitioners all love their new garden too and are spending as much time out there as possible! Communication and maintaining the nursery and parent relationship are so important to us, so it is great to hear that the use of our app is so effective. I love the food too, when I visit the nurseries I always make sure have a little plate! We put a lot of work into our menu, working with a nutritionist to make sure that every meal is both delicious and nutritious! If there are any team members in particular that you would like to mention, please do email me - reward and recognition is something of great importance to us, and we love to celebrate our practitioner's hard work!

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 12 months old and is now four. My son, who is 12 months old, has just started here too. What can I say? I love the staff here so much! The manager and the staff have really turned this place around. My son has settled in here so well, and my daughter talks about the staff as being her best friends. She will really miss them when she starts school this year. I’m so pleased I chose this nursery for my children.

We cannot recommend Ashington Day Nursery enough, our daughter loves her time there. The staff are all wonderful, showing such care and love for the children. The new modernizations coming and the update to the garden have made a huge difference to the look and emphasized the family feel. The food is brilliant our daughter regularly talks about how she loves the food and wishes that the cook can cook for her at home. The highlight recently was the wonderful Easter Egg hunt in the beautifully updated garden. Thank you so much to all the staff who go above and beyond to make sure our daughter gets the best experience.
