A brilliant setting, my son loves it here and we've had a positive experience for the 2 years he has attended so far. They have a lot of resources for new and differing activities, recently renewed all furniture in all rooms and gave us parents a tour once complete. They use an app which us parents
can use to check in anytime on our child during the day.

Love this nursery. All the staff are so lovely and care for every child like their own, love the updates on the app, my son loves coming here. He is thriving since he's started in September and his confidence is growing so much, thank you.

My daughter started at Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend when she was 10 months old and it was hard to find a nursery that I felt comfortable with. I found Footprints Wallsend and automatically felt at ease as I walked inside. I met the staff and they were lovely and so welcoming. My daughter also loves
everyone who works alongside of her and is so happy every time we enter. The staff have took great care of my daughter and really uplifted her confidence. I couldn't of chose a better nursery anywhere else.

Just feel so confident leaving my daughter in their care. She loves the staff and has flourished in confidence and always loves her day. She's made friends and learned so much that she loves to share when she comes home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team are excellent. They really take the time to get to know the children and to share how they've got on during the day at pick up time. They never seem to want to rush parents out the door - always giving as much time as parents like to discuss the day and plans for tomorrow. Our little boy absolutely
loves the team and talks about them often at home. It certainly feels like they really care for all of the children and want to every one of them to excel, feel loved and have fun,

Footprints Day Nursery is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best nursery in Wallsend. The whole team is amazing and bends over backwards to adapt to every child's needs, my little boy started in June 2023 and the difference in him within this time frame is unbelievable. All of the staffing team are
amazing and I will truly be devastated when it's our time to move on.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I put my youngest into Footprints Day Nursery at the start of the year and moved my oldest across from her previous nursery at Easter. The staff are amazing, my oldest used to dread going to nursery but after a week here, she could cry on her days off because she didn't get to see her friends. She left
in the summer to start school and my youngest is still in four days a week, she runs to the doors in the morning and couldn't be more excited to go in and play. Staff always update me with how she's been through the day, she is offered great food, comes home happy and sleepy every day.
Couldn't recommend this nursery more, it's amazing.

Our son started Footprints Day Nursery in May this year, shortly before he turned 1. We were worried about how he would settle in as he hadn't spent much time away from us but the team were so kind and accommodating and he settled much quicker than we expected.
He absolutely loves nursery now and is
excited to go each morning. His key workers do an amazing job and we can relax knowing he's being so well taken care of. The facilities are excellent and the children spend a lot of time in the wonderful outdoor space. We're so glad we chose this nursery and would recommend to anyone.

My little girl started in September, the staff have all been so lovely and always so helpful, she has settled really well. She's been to other places and not enjoyed it as much, she talks so highly of everyone when she's at home, it's so lovely.

Footprints Day Nursery are an amazing bunch of early year staff. They noticed issues with my son early, approached me with these and immediately put into place necessary steps, in advance to get him help. They adapt their delivery of childcare to enable the best per child, they tailor the day to the
needs and best interests of the child. As a parent, this is all you could wish for. I am very grateful to all of the staff at Footprints, they have enabled my son to flourish in ways I never imagined.

I feel the manager and her team are fantastic at Footprints, they have supported me every step of the way, being a new mother and unaware of nursery fees, the way things run etc they have been so helpful and so supportive.
My son loves attending the nursery and the girls really look after him, I can
tell he is cared for genuinely, which is a relief for any mother.
In general, I am really pleased with the care and service we receive.

Footprints Day Nursery is amazing. My son has extra needs and I was so anxious about him starting nursery, as my son was never away from me. Since my son has been at Footprints, he has come out of his shell so much more and it has been incredible watching him grow and become more independent and the
nursery play a big part in that. Every single member of staff are amazing and go above and beyond for all the children. They really are the best nursery. And I can't wait for my youngest to start in January and to watch him grow. Thanknyou Footprints for all you do for our children.

My daughter has attended Footprints since she was 10 months old and she's now 2. She found it tough settling in but the staff at Footprints were so supportive and went above and beyond to help her adjust. We really appreciate the extra efforts staff have made to support her as a bilingual child. The
environment at the nursery is nurturing and staff are very professional. My daughter loves going to nursery and is often sad at weekends when it's closed!

Absolutely amazing around. My little boy has been diagnosed with special needs at an early age and the staff have bent over backwards to help with his development in every way they can. The app is also great making it possible to get in touch with the nursery quickly as well as daily updates on what
your child has been up to and the meals they have had.

My daughter loves Footprints nursery, she started in September and I was concerned because had enjoyed her old nursery however the staff have been so fantastic with her and created a lovely learning environment. She loves her new friends and her key workers but most of all she loves to be outdoors for
Forest school. The staff are organised and keep you updated on daily activities and any special events. Highly recommend.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.962)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.962) out of 10 for Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 60 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 60 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 4.962 for Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend is calculated as follows: ( (694 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 719 Ratings = 4.962
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend is based on 60 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 104 number of registered child places is 20.8, which has been reached with 60 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
