My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery every day, she's always excited to go in and is always very happy and content when I collect her. She has a lovely bond with all of the staff who are all so gentle and caring towards her which is everything I wanted from a nursery. They do a large variety
of educational and fun activities, making sure to take pictures and update me over the app. The girls always do everything they can to help with any issues and are always approachable and easy to talk to about anything regarding my daughter.
I'm so glad I sent my daughter here as I am watching her develop new skills and her own personality every single day thanks to Newhouse Nursery.

As someone who finds it very hard to trust people with my children, I've had the best experience at Newhouse and so glad I can finally feel comfortable leaving my girl. She's come on in so many ways since joining and I couldn't be happier! Thanks to all the girls x

Great nursery; my daughter has been there since 4 months old and she's now getting ready to leave to go to Primary school.
They have been a great support and have always been there to provide for her and gone above and beyond based on her own needs.

Last month the girls really made a big deal over my daughter moving up and made sure she was completely ready for preschool! My daughter loves coming to nursery to play and she loves all the staff, I feel as though I know them myself by the way she talks to me about them!
I can't thank them enough
with the way they've treated my daughter and helped her with confidence and everything else!!

My granddaughter comes to your nursery and loves it. She shows us things she has learnt and tells us about the ladies that play and look after her. She loves playing outside too plenty of things for her to do weather permitting. We have plenty of pictures she has done at nursery too.

As a new mum looking for a nursery is so overwhelming but Newhouse have made it nothing but stress free. From the settling in sessions to leaving my child there for the full day I had constant reassurance that she was in the best care. All staff so attentive and you can see they take their time to get
to know each child.

I can't recommend Newhouse Nursery enough! My daughter started in the baby room when she was just 6 months old last year, and I was initially so nervous about leaving her. However, from the moment she started, the staff made me feel at ease. They are so patient, kind, and genuinely care for each child.
The environment is warm and homely, and it's clear that the babies are always calm, content, and happy to be there.


One of the things I love most is how thoughtfully the nursery is run. There are always creative and engaging activities for the children, which has helped my daughter settle in so quickly. Every day she arrives with a big smile, and I can see how much joy she gets from being there. It's wonderful to watch her thrive in such a loving and supportive space.

My 2 year old daughter has been attending Newhouse Nursery from an early age and her development has been commendable. When I arrive to collect her I can see that the atmosphere and activities are excellent. The staff in the nursery have been fantastic and very tentative with the children's needs.
I love using the app to see what activities my daughter has been up to and what creative meals and snacks she has been eating throughout the day. I really can't fault this nursery or recommend it enough.

I have had both of my children flourish through the care of the staff at Newhouse. My daughter is 2 and currently attends Newhouse and has done since she was 9 months old. It is a fabulous nursery and I am so grateful for all that they do. There are regular updates on the app regarding food, toilet
trips and activities. They are very thorough when it comes to accidents or if communication is needed to parents. None of my children have ever cried being dropped off at Newhouse and have always gone in with smiles and have been excited on the way each morning- which makes drop offs so much more pleasant knowing how happy they are. They provide a great variety of food and mealtimes to encourage healthy options and update the app to show what the children have eaten. I am really grateful for the care and compassion of the staff, they are approachable and understanding when ever they are needed for help or advice. I know that my daughter is in great hands.

I am really happy with the nursery, the staff have been excellent with my daughter. Her confidence has grown since she started pre-school and has made some friends, she always mentions the girls at home and what she has been up to. I love the updates and am happy with the communication of information
I get through the manager on the app.
I know my daughter is in good hands.

Absolutely fantastic nursery! My little boy has always been on the clingier side but since starting nursery at 9 months, the girls at Newhouse have helped him to settle in, explore and gain independence in play. All the activities are tailored and suited to all of the children's needs helping them to
develop in such a fun way.

My grandson has been coming to this nursery for a few months now and he loves going. The staff are lovely. The activities they provide are great, fun and educational. They send regular updates on how the children are progressing through play. I look forward to my emails from them and seeing the children
engaged in activities and play with big smiles on their faces. Well done team.

Great little nursery with wonderful staff who give the children the confidence and skills to go onto big school. My daughter hates being apart from me but some of the nursery staff are her best friends so she is absolutely fine as soon as she sees them.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.919)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.919) out of 10 for Newhouse 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.919 for Newhouse Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (321 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.919

  • 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 Newhouse Nursery is based on 29 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 29 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.
