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.
Review from Paul J (Father of Child)
Average Rating: 5
I've not been able to go inside the Nursery, because of Covid restrictions, so I'll go with how my toddler reacts when we arrive there - he can't wait to get inside! That's all that matters to us as parents, so a 10 out of 10 from all of us.
Review from K H (Mother of Child)
Average Rating: 5
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!
Review from Sally W (Mother of Child)
Average Rating: 5
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.
Review from Natalie F (Mother of Child)
