Both my daughters have attended Nunthorpe Day Nursery and my youngest still does. I cannot begin to describe how wonderful the nursery is, we love everything about it. The manager is extremely helpful and the staff are just fabulous. I don't know what we would do without them, they are by far the best
in the area. It's simply magical.

This is a wonderful nursery. It's such a big thing to trust anybody with your child, but after seeing the way that the staff are with my daughter I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to friends. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting the nursery and has made lots of lovely
friends! Thank you Nunthorpe Nurseries!

I put my daughter in nursery from 6 months old and now she's almost turning 1, she's been brought on so well from being in nursery. They have tried lots of new things and encouraged development in everything from messy play to being able to do things herself.
It's not easy going back to work and leaving
your baby but I feel fully confident she is being well looked after, I also get emails with photos of what she has being doing and new things she's achieved. She's built relationships with the staff who care for her and I'm glad I didn't put her anywhere else, to me it's worth the money to know she's safe and being looked after properly. Fully recommend the nursery to everyone and anyone!

This is a lovely nursery which my child has settled into and really enjoys. The staff are always welcoming and seem to have a good understanding of my child. The updates and photos on the Tapestry system are really nice so I can see what my child has been up to. I would really recommend this nursery.

The nursery is fantastic. All of the staff and management are lovely and they always have so many different activities for the children. I was very nervous at first about leaving my little girl but I am over the moon with all the staff since my little girl has been going there and she absolutely loves
it. Can't compliment the staff enough. Highly recommended.

We would like to express our appreciation to the nursery team for looking after our child this past 12 months. It was a turning point for him coming to your nursery. We are well aware of the patience and dedication that was required at times. I hope the team will reflect on what a great difference
they have made to him, and our family.
We always knew he was in safe and caring hands, which is priceless to us.

I've had both my children in the nursery since 2011 and my youngest is still there now. The nursery has been a great support to me and has allowed me to work and have the comfort that my children were both well looked after. My children have flourished at the nursery and developed in confidence over
the years. I'm kept up to date with their progress all the time and I can see just how much they have done. They do a great variety of things to keep them occupied and they love the variety of it all. The girls are fab and you can see that they genuinely love what they do. I would definitely recommend the nursery!

My daughter has been attending this nursery for approx six months now. I didn't have any experience in relation to placing my daughter in daycare so was a little anxious prior to her first day. I should not have worried one bit, my daughter absolutely loves the place. The staff are excellent with her
and I have seen her develop at a great pace since she started attending.


The facilities are fantastic and the staff go that extra mile to keep you up-to-date in terms of the daily activities that my daughter takes part in. Safety and security is also very good with a strict entry code system in place. I'm lucky that I found a nursery as good as this at the first time of asking.


Highly recommended.

Amazing nursery! Having tried two different nursery's my daughter didn't settle in either I used to dread taking her but she absolutely loves this one! I even book her in on the odd occasion when I'm not at work which I would never have done before. The staff are so warm and friendly to us and each
time I pop in they are doing activities with the children. I get emails with pictures of her playing and how she's developing. It's clean, bright and according to my little one the food is delicious! Highly recommended.

My son settled in really well after 7 weeks off, the staff made both him and I immediately delighted that we made the right decision to keep him in the nursery rather than school nursery. He always comes home in a very good mood. He really looks forward to nursery. He has a couple of health problems
but my husband and I trust all the staff 100%. This nursery is lovely, friendly and always makes you very welcome.

The nursery has been fantastic for my daughter's development. She has been there since she was a few months old and is now 3. She loves the nursery staff, who I couldn't speak more highly of. They are constantly thinking of new ideas and the children go on some interesting trips out too. A first class
nursery to send your child to, my daughter loves it! I particularly love the online system that gives us photos and descriptions of what our daughter has been doing at nursery.

Both my children have attended this nursery and loved every minute. Very friendly, kind and nurturing staff providing just what they needed at each stage of their development. Good communication from the staff with detailed updates on the days events and activities. I get regular updates sent to my
email showing the activities they have been participating in and how this is linked to their developmental assessment through the online journal.

I cannot begin to express how pleased I am with Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery. My daughter has been attending for almost a year now, the attentiveness of the staff and the way they monitor and track her development is great. She has made so much progress over the year and I love that she has an
online learning journal that let's me see what she has been getting up to during her day at nursery. The journal also lets me and my wife upload photographs and notes about what we have been doing at the weekend which the staff always comment on and talk about with our daughter which she loves. The staff are great and the nursery is always welcoming and inviting, I would have no hesitation in recommending to friends and family.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.930)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.930) out of 10 for Nunthorpe Children's 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 61 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 61 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 4.930 for Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (681 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 731 Ratings = 4.93

  • 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 Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery is based on 61 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 61 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.

Job Title: Manager

Joined: 1990

Hello, I'm Katie.
I have an NNEB and foundation degree in Early years childhood studies and have worked in childcare for 32 years here at Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery. I started out as an Early year's educator, working my way up to deputy manager and now proud to be manager. I take great pride in my nursery and love to welcome new and returning families. We have a fantastic fun and safe environment. I have lots of experience with Sen and higher needs children and enjoy working with families to provide the best possible care and education for them. I believe having a strong team helps children achieve their individual learning goals by working together and working alongside parents and families collectively.
I look forward to welcoming you to our nursery.
