About this day nursery

Keser Torah Early Years, a childcare setting for children aged 0-11 in Gateshead, operates from 18-22 Gladstone Terrace, NE8 4EA. Registered with Ofsted on March 12, 2024, the nursery benefits from a "Strong standard" rating in Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines, as well as Children's welfare and wellbeing, and "Expected standard" in Achievement, and Leadership and governance.

The setting adopts a true family feel, ensuring children thrive and settle quickly, forming warm relationships with nurturing staff. Leaders have established an effective and inclusive key-person approach.

The nursery provides significant support for children with special educational needs and disabilities, working closely with parents and other agencies to ensure excellent ongoing progress. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to develop children's communication, language, and physical skills, though there is a recognised need to enhance the outdoor curriculum for older children.

Staff are well-supported, with professional development opportunities, and the nursery fosters a positive work-life balance, notably by allowing staff to finish early on Fridays to prepare for the Sabbath with their families.
