Newbank House Day Nursery boasts a rich legacy of over four decades as a premier childcare facility in Oldham, renowned for its excellence in nurturing young minds.

The premises offers an array of splendid amenities, including expansive indoor and outdoor play areas. The well-appointed garden features a sprawling grassy expanse, a decked play zone and a secluded woodland enclave.

The curriculum is customised towards the need of each child; igniting their passion for learning while fostering independence. Staff prioritise meaningful interactions with the children, recognising that communication and language skills are pivotal prerequisites for future literacy.

Moreover, the nursery offers stimulating activities that encourage deep-level thinking, fostering conceptual growth in areas such as mathematics, science, and the natural world.

Newbank Nursery takes immense pride in preparing children comprehensively for the transition to school, acknowledging the significance of this momentous step. Transition sessions are thoughtfully incorporated into the program to ensure that children are fully equipped. The nursery has long established connections with local schools to facilitate a smooth transition process. Many children choose to stay with Newbank Nursery into the future, taking advantage of the out-of-school and holiday clubs.

The most wonderful nursery and could not have chosen anywhere better for my daughter to be! They went above and beyond to help my daughter settle in and now she absolutely loves it! All the staff are so polite and kind, and the managers are always willing to help where they can! You can see that they
truly care about the happiness and safety of all the children.

My experience at the nursery has been fantastic overall. The management team are so accommodating and friendly, particularly during the pandemic. They made fees voluntary during lockdown which was a massive help in such stressful times. They have also done really well at keeping the young people safe
from covid as far as I'm aware, as we have only had to self isolate on one occasion. The premises are clean and tidy and they adhere to all regulations around social distancing.


The staff in Tweenies helped me to feel so reassured when my son started nursery during the pandemic. I was so anxious but they really helped settle us in and my little boy has thrived ever since.


My daughter really enjoys preschool and all the staff listen to any concerns we might have. They always try hard to ensure the little ones are happy, which is really important to me.


Myself and my children love this nursery.

This is a fantastic nursery, my little boy has been coming since he was 9 months old and he has come on leaps and bounds since coming here. The staff are absolutely fantastic with him. He learns something different every day! I also love that he goes out into the garden for fresh air a lot and they
have a big garden space, not like the other nursery nearby! Couldn’t recommend this nursery any more. Very happy

Our son started at Newbank House last month and it is the best decision we have made for him. He is happy, settled and enjoys going into Nursery every day. The staff are warm, welcoming and place the child at the centre of everything they do.

My son started at Newbank House in May and the progress I have seen is amazing. He absolutely loves going every day and loves his key worker. The communication between staff and parents is great and I am always kept up to date with what's happening, especially with my son. I love that the staff really
care about your children and it's such a happy place for little ones. I drop my son off every morning on my way to work, knowing that he is safe and happy and I have nothing to worry about while he's there, such peace of mind. I love this place and would definitely recommend it to any parent wanting to put their children in nursery.

My daughter started at Newbank in September and has settled in really well. Her key workers are all very approachable and friendly. I love the diary which tells me what my daughter has been up to and the photographs are a real treat! It is nice that the staff take time at the end of the day to go through
the diary and go through any concerns with you. My daughter was initially being awkward with her eating but with perseverance and help from the staff, she has come a long way even in a matter of weeks. I would definitely recommend this nursery to friends and family.

The staff are fabulous. They genuinely care about the children. They work with you to achieve your objectives for your child eg. with potty training. One thing that could be better is providing a regular written account of what the children have been doing during their visit. Some nurseries use a portal
for staff and parents to log into which provides this information alongside photos- this would be helpful! Overall, I am very happy with the nursery.

I absolutely love taking my children to Newbank House nursery. All staff are so friendly and helpful. With being self employed I had to send my youngest to the nursery at 6 months old but they all made me feel at ease and both girls thoroughly enjoy going. It's a fantastic nursery!

My son has been at Newbank for 8 weeks so far and we couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery.
His key worker and all the staff in his room are brilliant. So friendly and nothing is too much to ask. They really go above and beyond.
He comes home with a smile on his face every day.
What more
could you ask for.

My daughter has recently started at Newbank House and she loves it. She has only been there a short time and I can already see a huge change in her (for the better). Her key workers are fantastic and have been very reassuring. I can call them whenever I like to see how my daughter is and nothing is
too much trouble. I’m really very pleased with my experience of Newbank so far and would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

We have been extremely happy with the care provided. My child is always very happy, well looked after, kept busy and occupied and fed good homecooked food.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Newbank Nursery.

My daughter absolutely loves nursery!
Her first few sessions she was a bit unsure about that change, but now, she practically runs in and gets upset getting into the car on the way home.
The staff are friendly and professional.
They have dealt with the ever-changing situation that Covid has brought
excellently.
I would recommend Newbank to all parents looking for a nursery.

My son attended the nursery from 2017 - August 2020 and we were so impressed with the care he received at Newbank. From day one we felt very comfortable dropping him off. The staff were so caring and tentative. Communication between staff and parents was amazing. We as parents (and even his grandparents/
extended family) feel this nursery has helped develop his social skills and taught him so much which will help him in his next stages of life. We were so satisfied with every aspect that our daughter has also started at the nursery a few weeks ago. Again, I did not have any concerns about the staff or care she will receive. She has settled in really well and the staff are always so happy to help and listen to any needs/ requests. Thank you to all the lovely staff at Newbank for everything and for taking care of our babies as if they were your own.

My daughter started this month at 9 months old and I can't put into words how fantastic this nursery is. After a 10 year gap between my daughters, I had forgotten how nervous it is to leave your child with complete strangers. This feeling lasted less than a day. The staff have been amazing and my daughter
goes and comes home with a big smile on her face every day. She frequently comes home with things she has made which makes me and her dad extremely proud. I'm looking forward to seeing her grow at this nursery and want to give a personal thanks to the ladies in Dinkies.

Best nursery setting in Oldham with genuine care to all the children. Staff are lovely and welcoming and make an effort for all children to receive quality care and education.
My son has been here for 2 years now and has developed tremendously in this time! In both personality and his learning. To
be honest all aspects! Quality place!

My daughter has attended Newbank Nursery for nearly four years. During that time she has really enjoyed her time at nursery and has made excellent progress. She has been able to take part in a range of stimulating activities in the lovely indoor and outdoor environment. The staff have all been lovely
and have helped her to develop her confidence, independence and self-esteem. She will miss all when she leaves in a few weeks time.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.838)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.838) out of 10 for Newbank House Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 28 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 4.905 for Newbank House Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (305 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.905

  • 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 4.933 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Newbank House Day Nursery is based on 28 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 150 number of registered child places is 30. 28 Positive Reviews ÷ 30 = 0.933

  • 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.
