My two children aged 5 and 3 have both attended Early Days Nursery, first child started when he was 1 and 2nd when he was 2. They go above and beyond and treat my children just like their own. The nursery staff have always been so warm and welcoming, the food is always nutritious and helped my boys
to try new things, they both learned new skills and improved so much in their development whilst attending early days, in an enjoyable fun way too! They have such a lovely bond with the staff (even my eldest still remembers the staff at Early Days) they have/are a big part of my children's lives and the staff will never be forgotten, I have and always will recommend this nursery to anyone.

Brilliant holiday club, my little one will be back in August. Class sizes were very small, communication was good and the variety of food and play during the day seemed fun. My little one is only just 3 but enjoyed talking about her day and was happy to go back on other days without any tears or fuss.
We had some lovely pictures of her doing the activities which I thought was a fantastic touch and made the holiday club really stand out.

From starting in babies, through to toddlers and now in pre-school, my daughter has thrived at this nursery. The staff are amazing and have encouraged my daughter to participate more and her confidence has improved so much!
The staff always organise such fun activities for the children, my daughter
loves to tell me about her day and what she's been up to at Early Days Nursery.

I can't thank all of the staff enough. They all go above and beyond, to ensure our children get the best learning experiences. I was able to witness this first-hand, and I thoroughly enjoyed my little session within the preschool room. The dedication of the staff shines through the children they teach.
Our children always talk about nursery, and what they have been up to each day. We will miss you all, but I'm sure you'll continue the fantastic work you've done this year.

The nursery staff go above and beyond to make children and parents feel welcome within the setting. My daughter started in September 2023, and she loves attending Early Days Nursery. Her confidence has really grown while being there. My other daughter also went here, and nothing was too much trouble.
The manager was such a big help in supporting me and still is. I highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Fantastic nursery! The staff are so great with the children and put a lot of effort into making them feel comfortable at nursery. They do a great job at helping the children settle in and communicating with their parents. All of the meals given to children are made and cooked on-site and they are very
respectful of dietary restrictions. I highly recommend Early Days Newcastle to any parents who are sending their children to nursery for the first time as Kim, the room leaders and all of the staff are kind and helpful. Lastly, they are great at including and embracing different cultures.

Wonderful nursery and staff are very supportive. My son has autism and, as challenging as it has been, the nursery have worked with me in making sure that his needs were met. I am extremely grateful and would definitely recommend parents to be reassured that their little ones are in safe hands, especially
those (like me) who worry a lot!

I couldn’t recommend and thank this nursery enough. My daughter has been in the baby room, toddler room and preschool room and has grown so much with Early Days. They go above and beyond. They have supported her so much on her journey and nothing is an issue. They have taken the time to learn about
a medical condition my daughter was born with and have been so kind and caring about her. I drop her off with no worries throughout the day and feel 100% confident she is in safe hands. She loves it there. She speaks very highly of the staff and children who are there and is always excited to go. They do many special activities and go above and beyond.

I was apprehensive and emotional about sorting a nursery out for my baby, but I am so happy I chose Early Days. I did lots of visits and research before choosing, so I didn’t take the decision lightly, and Early Days easily came out on top. Staff go above and beyond to make sure babies settle in and
feel loved and safe. My baby doesn’t go to sleep easily independently, but the staff make sure he has the help he needs to drift off. They plan great activities, so he’s always done something exciting or has been on a fun outing, and communication between parents and staff is brilliant. My baby is so happy there and therefore we are very happy parents. I can’t thank the staff enough for their support and care.

I am so glad that I sent my daughter to Early Days Nursery! The staff are so nurturing and they really care about the children. They are always finding creative and engaging ways to teach the children about all sorts of different things; from history and culture, to music and art, science and food,
and all kinds of different things! My daughter is autistic and non-verbal so I was worried about her going to a mainstream nursery, but the staff are brilliant with her and she has grown and learned so much in the time she has been there. I really can't fault them at all. I would recommend them to everyone!

Our son started at Early Days Nursery last year, and he has come on leaps and bounds. Even at the very start of the day the outdoor provision is set up and enticing to play with and explore. The staff are so lovely, approachable, accommodating, hardworking and dedicated. They have regular training,
which is shared on social media on how they implement what they’ve learned into our children’s learning and fun!
Our son goes into nursery settled and happy, I always feel at ease walking away, knowing that he’s content and well taken care of. The learning is tailored to each individual child, which is wonderful as we now have a boy ready for big school!
There is regular parents evenings which is a great way to be a part of the children’s journey and gives an insight of what can be taught at home.
Handovers at the end of the day are thorough and personal.
They have a closed Facebook page where photos are shared, which is just lovely and another way of feeling involved with your child’s day.

An amazing setting and highly recommended. Since starting at Early Days Nursery School in the toddler room last year, attending just one day a week continuing on to the pre-school room, our son has come on leaps and bounds. His speech, social skills, colour, shape and number recognition are amazing
thanks to the help from Early Days. He looks forward to going each week and has a fantastic relationship with his peers. We will be sad to leave, but grateful for the opportunity we had for our child to get a place here. We cannot thank the staff enough for helping mould our son into the clever, funny, loving little boy he is becoming.

My little boy started here back in September 2022 as a very frightened, anxious and timid little boy. In the last 18 months, we have seen him flourish and he is now becoming a confident, funny and outgoing little boy. He has had issues with his speech and in the last 6 months alone, show what a difference
going to this nursery has made with all the help and support they have given him. I would recommend anyone to send their child here. If we had any more, I certainly wouldn't hesitate! Outstanding nursery and amazing practitioners there.

Nursery have been fantastic in supporting not only my child but also myself with issues that have occurred at home. My little girl really enjoys going nursery, they do amazing activities. Since my little girl has been attending nursery she’s grown such an amazing bubbly personality and I honestly believe
it’s because of this incredible nursery they allowed her to be herself and you can tell how much she’s adored.

My son is due to finish his adventure with Early Days Nursery as he will be moving to "big school". This place and all the staff are amazing, so much more than I ever hoped for. He's my second child in this setting and would recommend it to anyone. The staff consistently goes above and beyond in supporting
children and their families. I'm really thankful to the nursery for supporting my boy in becoming this caring, friendly and kind child.

Great communication from the nursery. They have helped us and done research on my daughter's additional needs which they had never come across before. They have given us the support we needed from day one of her joining the nursery. They are in constant communication with us through the learning diary
and verbally and they have supported us with the decisions we have made to help improve our daughter. Although at the moment she is nonverbal due to her additional needs the nursery has referred us to people who can help us, such as speech and language and other professionals to help us to gain more knowledge of our daughter's needs.

Visited Early Days as an option for my daughter and selected it straight away without visiting any other nurseries. After a few difficult months, my daughter finally settled in. The staff are absolutely amazing. Very caring and friendly and always keep you posted with everything you need to know about
your child. The best team and nursery I have come across which is why I’ve now decided to leave my daughter here for another year before she starts reception at school.

Amazing nursery the staff are really friendly and welcoming nothing is too much for them to do to help you or your family. They help to settle my son really well and he loves going to nursery, they meet all of his needs, I was particularly worried about him starting nursery because of his dairy allergy
but they always provide him with a dairy-free alternative that looks the exact same as everyone else so that he doesn’t feel left out in any way.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.959)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.959) out of 10 for Early Days Nursery School Newcastle is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.959 for Early Days Nursery School Newcastle is calculated as follows: ( (402 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 419 Ratings = 4.959

  • b) 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 Early Days Nursery School Newcastle is based on 35 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 59 number of registered child places is 11.8, which has been reached with 35 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
