Review from A H (Grandmother of Child) published on 18 October 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My grandson has gone to this nursery for three years and is about to go to school. I can only say that they have been excellent. The staff, through all the rooms, have been caring and friendly and nothing seems to be too much trouble for them. I haven't had much to do with the endangerment team, but they always seem friendly when I come in, with a big smile and say hello. I will miss coming to nursery, but I wanted to thank them all for all their hard work and for looking after my grandson so well.

Review from Charlotte T (Mother of Child) published on 18 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at St Gabriels for just over 2 years and we have always been impressed with the level of care and service that he receives. As a parent looking for a suitable nursery during the crazy time of the pandemic, we knew immediately St Gabriels was the right one for us, as the warmth of the staff and transparency of daily routines gave us instant reassurance. He has enjoyed moving up through the rooms and we have enjoyed getting to know all of the staff as they have helped him grow and develop. Making strong connections with his key workers as they have played a big role in his time there. We look forward to sending our youngest there in January and I know this will help to ease me with the transition of going back to work.

Reply from Mandy Wilson, Area Manager at St Gabriels Nursery Gosforth

Review from Rubi W (Mother of Child) published on 3 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My three-year-old daughter has attended the setting since she was three months old, and I can’t say enough about the care and attention St Gabriel’s provides her. My daughter skips into the nursery, and the tired child I get back every evening has tales of wonder and laughter and happiness - it truly is her favourite place. I can’t thank the team enough for what they have done for my little girl- she truly loves her happy place. The manager and deputy manager are wonderful and very helpful - nothing is too much bother - they go above and beyond with me and my daughter. The girls, likewise, they too do more than I expect. Yes, there are some gripes, but considering what we get back, they are very, very minor!

Review from Rajan S (Father of Child) published on 26 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

St Gabriels Nursery Gosforth is a great nursery with an outstanding approach to childcare. Both my son and my daughter have been privileged to attend the setting and the care and attention showered on them has been nothing short of wonderful. They truly make my child feel loved, so much that they run to start the day at nursery and cry whenever they have to leave. It’s an absolute pleasure to see the happy faces whenever I pick up. Handovers are great and I am always informed of changes to routines and anything of interest. The staff seem happy and supported and genuinely seem to care for my daughter and my son when he attended. I can’t recommend them enough!

Review from N W (Mother of Child) published on 14 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
St Gabriel’s has a prefect location and is purpose built. So first impressions are excellent. However, the management are not the best in communicating with parents.
And if you have a complaint they always have an excuse. And make you feel like you are complaining over nothing. They are not very accommodating if you urgently need help (we have no family here).
You provide nappies and wipes even though they are the most expensive nursery setting in the area. Again mentioned many times but never acknowledged.
A number of parents have made valid suggestions in the past and nothing has been done. The desserts were changed from high sugar items to fruits for a short time.
A number of times my child’s bum wasn’t wiped properly/checked.
No aprons when painting and numerous clothes are stained.
Everything is talked about in front of other parents, sometimes sensitive issues.

No air con, very very hot in the summer months.

Review from Naomi P (Mother of Child) published on 18 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We are thrilled with the care our daughter is receiving at St Gabriels. They are caring, attentive and keep us well informed of all she has done that day. They prepare amazing sensory, crafts and music activities for the children. The facilities are exceptionally well designed to encourage fun and learning. Our little girl settled in so quickly and is excited to go there.

Review from Amanda G (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started at St Gabriel's two days a week when it first opened in September; she was five months old at the time. From the moment she started I have felt confident that she is being well cared for and as her needs have changed so has what has been provided. She now attends full time and we always pick up a happy, confident, satisfied, albeit slightly tired, girl.

Her weaning has gone extremely smoothly thanks to the excellent interaction and relationship I am able to have with the staff and her days are filled with appropriate and stimulating activities. The staff are all knowledgeable, friendly and approachable and the facilities are fantastic. She has already changed so much since she started and I really look forward to seeing her grow up with the staff and facilities at St Gabriel's.

Overall Experience

We are so pleased that we chose St Gabriel's Gosforth for our children. Having moved from the sister nursery we were worried it wouldn't live up to our high expectations, but we are really happy with it. The facilities are stunning and the staff friendly and welcoming. The management team have been brilliant at addressing queries promptly. Above all our daughter is happy and has come on leaps and bounds in her learning since starting. Her individual needs are also met very effectively.
