## About this day nursery

30 am to 6 pm. The nursery was established in 2006 and received a "Good" rating in its latest Ofsted inspection on 18th June 2025.

Children are warmly greeted by caring and supportive staff, who are particularly attentive to new children and those needing help to settle, providing cuddles, reassurance, and consistent routines to promote emotional well-being. The curriculum is ambitious and tailored to individual interests, with staff working with parents to understand children's existing knowledge and skills upon entry.

Children benefit from an extensive outdoor area, engaging in meaningful learning and physical activity, developing gross motor skills, balance, and coordination. The nursery also focuses on children's growing independence in self-care and personal hygiene.

Through visitors like police and fire brigade personnel, and visits to local care homes, children learn about their community and the wider world, including environmental responsibility through litter picking and recycling. Language development is a key focus, with staff singing to babies and encouraging a love of books across all age groups through "book nooks" and shared reading experiences.

The nursery ensures timely completion of the progress check at age two, identifying any developmental delays and sharing these with parents. Parents commend the leadership team as "particularly impressive" and the staff as "extremely approachable and dedicated," highlighting the strong partnerships between the nursery and families.

The nursery also prioritises continued professional development for its highly qualified staff, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment with high morale and effective teamwork.

I wanted to take a moment to express just how happy we are with the care our child receives at your nursery. From the moment we walk in, we are greeted with such warmth, and it's clear that all of the staff members are genuinely friendly and dedicated to the children. The nursery itself is a truly lovely environment, and our child always talks excitedly about their day there. Knowing that they are in such a caring and positive space makes a huge difference to us as parents. We wholeheartedly recommend Kids 1st Durham to any family looking for exceptional childcare. Thank you all for everything you do!

The nursery has been a God send. My lil one absolutely loves going in every morning. Their ladies are supportive with his additional needs and it’s great to be able to have peace of mind while at work.

What a wonderful place! There are several good and great nurseries in Durham, and Kids 1st is the best we’ve found. The staff seem unfailingly cheerful, welcoming, caring and helpful, and they’ve gone above and beyond to nurture and care for my daughter. Most days she’s having such fun that she doesn’t want to leave. A gem of a place, in our experience. Thank you!
