  • Tynemouth Nursery, North Shields
Located in spacious gardens in this former prestigious family home on Preston Avenue, Tynemouth.

The building just oozes the homely feel that the local owners were so determined to achieve in all settings.

With six base rooms for the children along with an imaginary room and large outdoor play area Tynemouth Nursery, recently refurbished and re-equipped in 2018, offers a catalyst of activities to enable children to learn through play and fulfil potential.

The nursery is proud to have the prestigious Millies's Mark accreditation awarded in 2018, having this award demonstrates the nursery's commitment to going above and beyond the minimum requirements for keeping children safe.

All staff working directly with children not only hold a paediatric first aid certificate but are also competent in how to apply this in practice.

With lots of extra activities such as French, football, yoga, sing and sign and regular trips plus digital learning journals, state of the art door entry systems and fully qualified early years teacher Tynemouth Nursery has so much to offer.

All of our children have attended Tynemouth Nursery and we have always been extremely pleased with the care provided. Each of our children have had great fun whilst learning and have made good progress over the years, academically and socially. The key workers support the children brilliantly and we
have always found everyone who has looked after our children to be friendly and approachable. The Nursery provides a relaxed and homely environment which is exactly what we were looking for when choosing childcare for our children.

Tynemouth nursery is fantastic! Both of my boys have attended since they were 10 months old and I honestly feel as though the staff love them like their own. The whole team are so friendly, welcoming and professional and I would never hesitate to entrust them with my children. The facilities are excellent
and the nursery has a real homely feel about it which no other nursery offered. Activities are well structured and educational and the boys love the external activities offered by visiting companies. The food is always fresh and varied and I am impressed at what they put away in comparison to what they eat at home!
My eldest is coming to the end of his time at Tynemouth nursery and I thank staff for helping me raise the polite and confident boy he is today. I had originally planned to move my youngest for logistic reasons but unfortunately, no other nursery compares and (with a little help) we are leaving him at Tynemouth so he can have the same wonderful experience as his brother.

I love the way all of the staff care for our baby. They're genuinely loving and honest with us. Everything I've asked about has been addressed and I'm so pleased at the way she's settled when I thought she wouldn't! That is thanks to the love they've shown her. They constantly put my mind at rest and
nothing seems too much trouble. I like that it is a small nursery but doesn't lack facilities. I like that there are just a few staff that we see all the time. The handovers are informative and precise and all the staff know everything that's she's done. I've never heard 'oh I don't know' when I've asked anything about her day. We LOVE the online learning journal too. The sing and sign is an excellent opportunity for our baby and the home made meals. It isn't a glamorous nursery, but it's very homely and the staff are superb. We're very happy. I recommend this nursery.

Friendly, welcoming with good feedback on child development. Always a nice atmosphere, with pleasant surroundings. Staff team always approachable. Structured activities, regular updates, accessible. Nice garden area to play out in - although a grassy area would be nice. Plenty of indoor activities
and occasional trips outside of the nursery are also provided (great for exploring the wider world) - the latter can be more of a challenge to organise, so I am aware that there might be restrictions on how many can be reasonably undertaken, but I do think that they are an important part of child development. It's a great place for my child to be, I have seen him grow in confidence and learning. He has established good relationships with the staff team and has made quite a few good friends amongst his peers along the way as well. We shall all miss the place once he moves onto school in September

Thank you so much for a wonderful review. I am pleased you appreciate the trips, we plan to do as many as we can because as you say, they are great for the children. I will pass on your lovely comments to the staff who love to get feedback.

My son is coming to the end of his time at Tynemouth Nursery and I will be sad to say goodbye. He has had the best time, and two of the ladies have cared for him since day one, meaning that we had consistency with his carers. I feel happy every day to leave him as I know he is having the best time.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Tynemouth 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.859 for Tynemouth Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (197 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.859

  • 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 Tynemouth Nursery is based on 19 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 19 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.
