All of our staff are highly trained professionals, holding NVQ level 3 qualifications and above, as well as being trained in paediatric first aid and holding food hygiene qualifications. All staff members have also gone through Disclosure Barring Service checks.

Education in the Early Years room is provided by our Qualified Teacher and the running of the Early Years Foundation Stage is led by our Early Years Professional.

We are rated by Ofsted as a 'Good' setting and were given a food hygiene rating of 5/5 'Very Good' by Northumberland County Council.

We offer a healthy and varied menu, prepared fresh on site by our cook and are happy to cater for any dietary requirements. We are able to offer breakfast, a late morning healthy snack, a two-course lunch and afternoon tea.

Our in depth knowledge of children's development and needs allows us to plan and provide a great range of activities in a safe environment that your children will feel happy and secure in. We operate a key worker system, ensuring that each child has a key person to encourage them to learn and develop to their full potential.

We have three rooms in the nursery to cater for all age ranges, including a dedicated baby and toddler room and a separate sleep room to ensure that each child's needs are met fully and comfortably.

We have a large, secure outdoor play area in which children can explore and play in all weathers and a conservatory that gives children easy access to outdoor play. Children in the Early Years room are also taken on educational trips such as visits to the farm or aquarium and we welcome visitors to the nursery such as the fire and ambulance services for educational purposes.
