Amazing staff and lovely little setup. By far the cleanest and most organised nursery I’ve seen despite many kids and lots of fun messy activities. The staff is extremely professional, polite, and gentle. My toddler was struggling with being away from me for the first time since I started work but is
now settling in, making friends, and getting involved in group activities. The administration is also very cooperative and accommodating. Highly recommend Early Days Nursery School.

In the two years my daughter has been at Early Days Nursery School Newcastle her progress has been substantial. All staff are welcoming, friendly, and caring. My daughter has a brilliant relationship with key staff that have helped her personally and educationally. My daughter is due to start reception
and the transition support has been amazing. The parents' evening was great and we were able to see her improvement through her work, pictures, and observations. Development was documented and discussed throughout her nursery journey. A variety of activities inside and outside are thoroughly enjoyed and cultural diversity is explored. The planning and involvement staff undertake to provide resources is just amazing and I honestly can’t thank them enough for the phenomenal care they provide.

Reply from Kim-Marie Tooth, Childcare Manager at Early Days Nursery School Newcastle

Our foster child really enjoys his time in this nursery and looks forward with excitement to attend. The staff are absolutely exemplary and their professionalism, patience, and willingness to provide the highest levels of learning and support is awe-inspiring. They have a highly refreshing "can do"
attitude to helping his and our needs and I would totally recommend Early Days to anyone looking for a nursery for their child.

My daughter has really come out of her shell since starting here about a year ago now! We have never had an issue with the nursery at all! All the staff are so great and go out of their way to help in any way and are full of advice if you ask! So glad I picked this nursery for our daughter, can't wait
for our youngest to start next year to watch her flourish too! Great nursery with a family feel.

My child has attended this nursery for 2 years. She’s done nothing but thrive since attending. The nursery staff truly care about your children and their development it is much more than just a job to these lovely ladies. I couldn’t wish for a better nursery for my child and as soon as my son is able
to go to nursery he will be going here too! Special thanks to the preschool team for not just allowing my daughter to thrive encouraging her to do well and helping me to be a better parent by helping me understand my child’s behaviour too!

Due to a new job, my very attached son had to start all over again at a new nursery. I was so nervous...by day two he walked in on his own making friends with the staff and the little ones. All the staff are just wonderful they give me and my son so much support and help with anything I need advice
on. Not only that my son has been quite delayed in his speech...after two months of being here he's made fantastic progress, he's no longer clinging on to me, he's become independent and learning new things all the time.

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and has built fantastic relationships with staff. She has learnt so much and built her confidence due to the amazing activities she engages in at nursery. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Early Days have cared for both of my boys, and I can't praise the setting enough, every single member of staff welcomes your child with a big smile and makes sure they are cared for. Returning to work is the most daunting thing after having your baby, but the team made sure we had settling in sessions,
and they are only a phone call away!
They keep you informed about things going on in the setting and what your child has done throughout the day.
The setting is lovely and clean, and the amount of different recourses for the children to access is really good! The only thing I would say that needs improvements is the outdoor area, but I know that as a setting, they are trying their best in making the outdoor learning on the same level as inside! And from my babies point of view, he has toys to bang on so he doesn't actually care about anything else outside!! Would definitely recommend this nursery.

My girls have been attending this nursery 3-times a week for the last 18-months. They were settled in brilliantly and have always gone above and beyond to provide first-class childcare service. They are all so knowledgeable, approachable, caring people and I could not be happier I decided to put my
girls here. Throughout infancy, I have had developmental concerns for my youngest daughter, and I cannot tell you the amount of support I have received regarding this. The diagnostic process can be somewhat of a daunting experience, to say the least, but I have never felt alone through it because the manager and the team have done whatever it takes to make me feel that way. I love you all, as you know.

My little girls have been at early days for 9-months and in that time they have come on so much in their development. The staff at Early Days are always there if we have a question or to chat about our children, my little ladies love it at Early Days and have built up strong bonds with all staff. I
feel happy leaving my girls at nursery knowing that they are in a safe, caring and loving environment.

We made the right decision to come to this nursery with our son! He loves the staff here, and so do we. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. He has come to this nursery since day dot, and he’s grown into such a clever boy. It amazes us how advanced he is - and it’s all because of these ladies!
Thank
you to the manager and her staff for always supporting us.

Amazing nursery staff and so lovely. My daughter prefers to go here than the actual school would never send her anywhere else. One lady has been with my daughter since she was three and has been absolutely amazing with her and my little girl loves her to pieces; she is a credit to the nursery and goes
above and beyond for the children.

Early Days Newcastle is an excellent nursery, great with the children and the learning. The girls are very loving and caring towards each child. Each member of staff is bubbly and brightens the children’s day up, and the manager is excellent for settling in new staff. I would extremely recommend this
nursery.

My little boy started at Early Days Nursery this week. He thoroughly enjoyed it and enjoyed both indoor and outdoor play. I’m looking forward to seeing his development during his time here and would recommend Early Days to anyone looking for a focal nursery for their child.

The staff always go above and beyond for the children. My little boy is so content attending the nursery, he has the best days here! I can’t thank the staff enough for supporting my little boy in his learning since he first started last April; you’re all amazing, and I couldn’t recommend this nursery
enough.

My little boy loves attending nursery. The staff are friendly, approachable and fantastic with my boy. The nursery is clean and tidy. There are loads of resources available for my boy to explore. I felt comfortable leaving my boy at nursery, knowing he was safe. I can't wait to bring my daughter as
she gets older.

Both of my little boys attend Early Days, and it's honestly the best nursery they could go to, having done placement at a range of nurseries, Early Days is the one I recommend. The extra lengths all members of staff go-to for the care and support of your children are amazing! I couldn't thank them enough
for everything they do for my children, especially through the current circumstances! Thank you again!

My daughter started in Early Days Nursery at a very young age, settled in very well. Lovely staff, very flexible. Also provided preschool and after school for my son when he started reception. Always dropped off and picked back on time.

Wonderful nursery! Taking a while for my little boy to settle in but the staff have been fantastic looking after him like their own, making him feel safe and cared for.
The manager is lovely, she gets so involved with the children and can see how much she loves it which I think is lovely.
They go
above and beyond.
Highly recommended.

Recommend to anyone looking for a nursery, the staff here are amazing. My son came here when he was three and didn't get on well in school so tried Early Days Nursery and it's the best decision we made. His behaviour changed massively and I can't thank the staff here enough!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.958)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.958) 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.958 for Early Days Nursery School Newcastle is calculated as follows: ( (390 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 407 Ratings = 4.958

  • 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 34 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 34 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.
