Whitley Lodge – Top 20 Nurseries in North East England 2025
Our Whitley Lodge setting has again been awarded Top 20 Nurseries in North East England 2025, a huge achievement that reflects the exceptional care and support provided by the team every single day. Parents consistently praise the warm and nurturing environment at Whitley Lodge, with one family sharing:
“We have nothing but excellent things to say about our experience at Zone4Kids at Whitley Lodge. Over the past 18 months they have provided exceptional care for our babies (now toddlers!) who have grown in terms of both development and confidence. The team has also gone to every possible effort to support us when needed and we couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery.”
Well done to the entire team at Whitley Lodge, you are all incredible!
Jesmond – Top 20 Nurseries in North East England 2025 and Featured by NewcastleWorld
Our Jesmond setting has also been named in the Top 20 Nurseries in North East England 2025 once again and were also proudly featured in an article by NewcastleWorld!
The article is titled “Newcastle Nurseries League Table 2025: 11 Best Nursery Schools in Newcastle” – and Jesmond came in at an incredible 2nd place! You can read the full article here. We are so proud of the entire team at Jesmond, who are always going above and beyond for the children in their care.
Parents also love the warm and personal approach at Jesmond, with one saying:
“We first visited when I was 22 weeks pregnant and loved the place instantly. It was obvious that all the staff really cared about the children and also loved working at the nursery. Fast forward to nearly one year later and our twins have settled so well. I feel they are known as individuals and the fact that staff seem really happy to see them when we drop them off makes me feel they are part of a little family whilst at nursery.”
