Our daughter started footprints in April this year, a quiet little 2-year-old who didn't chat a lot. Now, a few months later she is full of confidence and a little chatterbox. We worried she would find it difficult transitioning as she has only really been with mummy and daddy at home but she settled
in straight away and is always so excited to go to nursery. The staff always go above and beyond and make the experience so personal. We will be so sad when she has to leave. Thank you so much!

My son has been in Footprints from 9 months to now (currently 2) and there is no other nursery I'd want him to attend. The staff and facilities (indoor and outdoor) are excellent with plenty for him to do. The app is fantastic for providing updates and fast communication. Even though we recently moved,
we kept Will in Footprints because of the positive experiences he has.

We are so happy with our daughter's care at Footprints. She settled in immediately and no doubt that is due to the lovely staff and fun atmosphere. She looks forward to going every week. We can't fault it at all.

Staff are excellent, have helped my daughter to come out of her shell, encouraging her to try new foods and interact more with other kids. Becky and the other ladies have been absolutely fantastic and made my daughter excited to go. Thank you.

My grandchild has loved his time at Footprints and he's made an amazing bond with the staff in his classroom and we will miss them all and highly recommend this nursery to anyone who has children with any needs they were great with my grandchild and handled him well with being nonverbal.

Since starting this nursery my daughter has come on so well, her communication and confidence is the best it's ever been. The girls are an absolute delight and I trust them so much with her. They always communicate with me and her dad very well and she always comes home happy after a day at nursery.

Footprints is a friendly and professional nursery and my child loves attending this setting. The staff go above and beyond in all aspects and give regular updates on our child’s development. Would certainly recommend it to any families with young children. I can’t give them enough praise.

My son loves attending nursery and runs to greet the ladies who care for him! Their app allows me to keep in touch throughout the day and for me to know exactly when has eaten/slept etc. This helps put my mind at ease and makes handovers quick and easy, they can just tell me how good their day has been
and what they’ve been up to.

My daughter has just started Footprints Day Nursery and I couldn’t be any happier with my decision to place her here. The settling-in process was smooth, the staff are lovely and most importantly for myself the knowledge around food allergies has been fantastic. They ensured her diet is met, communicated
well with me at the start to ensure they understood her allergies and had a fantastic process in place for this. The app is great with daily updates and it is lovely to see photos of my child enjoying a range of activities from outdoor play, and sensory room to mess play and painting. I especially love to see her happy little face at the end of the day which shows me she has had a lovely time whilst she is too young to communicate this verbally.

My son has been attending this nursery for a year now and the experience has been so wonderful. The management and staff are so great with their knowledge of complex allergies and get so excited with us when we pass little milestones. My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting and I have felt
nothing but support from day one. He loves coming in every week and has such amazing relationships with the staff and other children.

My little girl has been going to Footprints just before she turned one.
What an amazing team they are, the girls are fantastic and my little girl loves them all.
I can’t believe how much she has come on she’s doing amazing.
She will be leaving to start big school in September and we are both so
sad to be leaving all the girls behind.

Fantastic nursery, all make a huge effort to get to know each child. Exploring each child's interests and caring for them as if they are their own.
Outdoor play is great, all meals are freshly cooked on-site.

I was really worried leaving my son being a first-time mam and they were absolutely brilliant.
So friendly and reassuring.
Always keep me up to date and my son looks forward to going.
Nothing is ever a bother and he has come on so much since attending.
Really appreciate everything they do for us
especially my little keepsake crafts.

My son has attended this nursery for nearly a year now and I wouldn’t want him in any other nursery, they are so good with him and his needs as he has cerebral palsy and they have helped him so much over the last 11 months. All the staff are so kind and good with the children. I’m always getting updates
on my son and how he’s doing at nursery, it’s the best nursery ever.

The best nursery. Both of my children have attended here and loved it.
The staff are amazing, and have a genuine bond with the kids. Lots of fantastic updates throughout the day to put your mind at ease.
All home-cooked food and my son always eats a full meal. Fantastic garden and outdoor area and
always lots of activities happening.

I am really happy to choose Footprints for my daughter. She is super active now and takes part in every activity. She was a little shy before joining the nursery, but now she is much better. The whole staff is doing a fabulous job.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.963)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.963) out of 10 for Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend 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 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 4.963 for Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend is calculated as follows: ( (706 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 731 Ratings = 4.963

  • 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 Footprints Day Nursery Wallsend 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 104 number of registered child places is 20.8, 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.
