About this day nursery

Early Adventures Ltd, located in Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE27 0EP, is a childcare setting on non-domestic premises that was registered with Ofsted on 13/05/2024. 00pm, closing on Fridays, Bank Holidays, and between Christmas and New Year.

The setting provides a warm and friendly environment where children aged 0 to 4 thrive and develop strong relationships with both staff and other children. Early Adventures Ltd has a clear vision to be a small, family-orientated nursery, making parents feel part of the family and actively involving them in their child's learning journey.

The curriculum is well-designed and sequential, helping children to progress at their own pace and develop essential skills for their future learning. Staff provide exceptional support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities, adapting meal times, using picture cards to aid communication, and collaborating with other professionals and schools to ensure smooth transitions.

They also prioritise children's welfare and wellbeing, offering healthy meals and snacks, promoting good dental hygiene, and ensuring opportunities for fresh air and exercise. While the outdoor area currently has some limitations, managers have plans in place for its further development to enhance children's outdoor experiences.

The nursery currently has a total capacity of 30 children.

Our ethos

Our individualised curriculum teaches children about nature, culture, diversity and life skills. By focusing on these areas, we aim to help children become independent, confident and critical thinkers. Our nursery follows The Curiosity Approach, which encompasses pedagogy such as Montessori, Hygge, Pikler and Reggio. The approach aims to create 'thinkers and doers' and focuses on bringing curiosity, awe and wonder to childrens learning, by putting the child at the centre of their education. Our environment is equipped with real, authentic items to encourage childrens natural curiosity and eagerness to explore and create. Adults use childrens own interests and schemas to plan exciting and challenging activities.

My son started at Early Adventures just after he turned 3 and honestly it's the best decision we ever made. The only thing we wish is that he had started earlier as he has improved so much. The staff are all amazing and so lovely with the children and there is a total family feel to the nursery. My daughter started in the summer aged 1 and the improvement in her is unbelievable already. The updates on the Famly app are so helpful and we love seeing all the photos of what the children are up to. If you are considering a nursery for your children you won't be disappointed with Early Adventures!

My son started here just before his 1st birthday 3 months ago, he only does 2 days a week but his progress has been amazing in such a short period of time. He settled in really quickly and absolutely loves the staff who are all really friendly and professional. Everyone seems to know who he is and who we are too, so it always feels like we’re leaving him in good friendly hands and not with strangers. They have been fantastic catering to his allergies too. Would highly recommend Early Adventures to anyone!

My daughter has been attending since she was 9 month old and really enjoys going. She has developed so much since attending, I get daily updates as to what she has been doing that day with pictures and videos. They are so attentive and have been amazing dealing with her allergies.

Our dear daughter is 3 and is very happy going to the nursery. Staff takes very good care and are affectionate to children. They take good effort in taking children to parks and nearby ponds very often. They constantly update in Tapestry for the children's progress. I'm very much happy with Early Adventure.

My son has been attending here since January and he is loving his time there. The staff are extremely friendly and keep me up to date with everything at all times. My husband and I feel completely at ease when we drop our son off as we know he will have a wonderful time!
