Newlands Early Years Centre opened in September 2021 after The Early Years Group took over from Footprints. The setting will continue to operate the same way it has done for over 40 years, enabling children to grow & develop to reach their full potential.
The setting is based within the grounds of Newlands Primary School in a purpose-built building, catering for up to 28 children aged between 2 to 5 years old. The centre is bright with lots of natural lighting, & a mixture of lamps & fairy lights to create a cosy, inviting space for children to play & learn with fully resourced areas inside & outside.
Each child has an assigned key worker who communicates closely with parents & carers to ensure they can follow the children's interests & development each day, giving them peace of mind that their child is in excellent hands. Each key worker has an allocated colour, which is reflected in their registration star so that they quickly become familiar with their key person & the other children in that group as well. As the team is small, all the staff know each child extremely well, & once the child is settled with their key person, they then build strong bonds with the rest of the team, who are familiar of where they are within their learning & development as well as current interests.
The setting is extremely fortunate to have access to a wrap around garden which has been separated into three different areas, one area for play with resources, woodwork, stories etc, one for scooters and ride on cars & the the third area for large loose parts. The centre is currently working with the primary school on site to develop a shared area into a sensory garden & have also secured a regular scheduled time to take the children to the schools playground and field.
Snack & lunch time are social occasions where there are discussions about the day and what to do next as well as sharing jokes from their yoghurts!

I have been caring for children going to this preschool from the time it opened in 2021 and before they took over another nursery. They have always been very professional and show great care, attention and kindness to all the children. The current child I care for will be leaving for primary school at the end of term, and the staff, especially her key worker Michelle, have nurtured her into a confident and well rounded child. She always is happy to be dropped to preschool and has many friends. Her knowledge in all areas has been encourages and expanded. A preschool I am happy to recommend.

When Margot had a wobble and struggled separating from us at the door, the team did everything they could to return Margot back to her usual self! A huge thank you to everyone for all they have done for Margot.
Thank you so much, we are so excited for her to start her next chapter at big school. Although she had some anxiety it is great to see it easing away. We look forward to having her little brother in a year or so!
Mikey always has fun and talks about what he has learned and done at school. The teachers are friendly and helpful with what is needed.

Thank you very much for your review, we have loved having your daughter with us. She is a huge character and will be missed dearly.
Newlands has been a very good experience for both us and Logan, especially over the last few months in the lead up to school. Logan always comes home saying he's had a good day and had fun.

Thank you very much. It was lovely to see you at our Fathers Day stay and play event. L has come a long way since starting with us, he is such a sweet little boy I know he will enjoy his time at big school in September.
Since Benjamin joined Newlands Early Years, his development has been amazing, and we are super proud of the journey he has been on. This is driven by the care and attention the team at Newlands have given him. Thanks for all that you do!

Thank you so much, we have loved welcoming you and your family. Both your boys are very kind, funny and confident. I know that B will smash it when he goes to big school in September. I look forward to watching him continue to grow over the school fence.

We love Newlands, our boys have loved every moment, and we'll be very sad to say goodbye for the last time this summer.
Thank you so much for your review. It has been wonderful being part of both your children's learning journey throughout the years and we will miss you all terribly however I know that he is more than ready for his next journey and will do great things as he grows.
Watching Ollie grow more confident every day has been amazing. His ability to try new things has been a pleasure to watch me and his mum. Are delighted with the help and knowledge Newlands have taught Oliver. We can't thank you all enough for setting him up for 'big' school. Thank you.

I took my child to Newlands Preschool yesterday for his trial session ahead of starting next week, and I couldn't be happier.
I was very nervous as I've never left him with anyone other than family, but from the reassuring phone call the day before-where they took time to answer all our questions-I already felt more at ease.
When we arrived, we were welcomed so warmly. The staff were incredibly kind and made my child a priority straight away. He settled in so quickly, which showed just how safe and happy he felt.
He had a wonderful time, and it's clear the environment is thoughtfully set up for children to thrive. The staff are caring, confident, and attentive.
I left feeling completely reassured about the week ahead-and most importantly, so did my child. It's such a lovely, nurturing environment and I'm really excited for him to start.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are so glad that you and little man feel safe and secure within our preschool. We cannot wait to see his little personality grow as he does over his time with us. We are glad that you also trust us with your little world.

We couldn't be happier with the care and support they provide.
Thank you so much! What lovely comments, I cannot wait to share them with the team! We are super proud of little man and how much he has progressed with support from you and us. He is amazing!
On the days he is attending that setting he wakes up very early and cant wait to go and meet all his friends and teachers. I find them to be amazing and very attending to his needs. He is having time of his life there.

I love that they are always updating the online parent portal with pictures and updates same day so you know exactly what there up to and can encourage my daughter to remember what shes done and tell me all about it.
All the lady's/Teachers i have had nothing but positive vibes from, they provide detailed handovers on pick up and clearly care for all the children shown in how well they know every individual child. My daughter was in nappies when she started and is now potty trained, they have fully supported through the transition.
Overall, my daughter loves going to Newlands and even on her days off is asking to go back, i as a parent have had no issues and think their communication is 10/10. Considering how nervous i was with starting this journey for my daughter its been nothing but great for her

My daughter absolutely loves going to pre school-she's never once said she didn't want to go! They do so many fun, creative learning activities, and it's clear how much thought they put into making each day exciting.
I also love the app, where they keep you updated on what the kids get up to each day. It's so nice being able to see what she's been doing.
We couldn't be happier with Newlands & the amazing staff. It's such a lovely place for the kids to grow & learn!

My child settling in quickly @ Newlands nursery as all the staff are fun, kind, and welcoming to the children. I am impressed their well plan activities on daily bases. The children take part in wide range of activities which support all areas of her development. The staff are always communicating to us and supportive especially from her key person. I will recommend this nursery to anyone.
I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff at Newlands Early Years Centre. Edward isn't the easiest of children, however he loves his time at the nursery and everyone has been great at learning/knowing who he is.
