Noah's Ark Nursery in Hebburn

About this day nursery

Noah's Ark Nursery in Hebburn provides care and education for children from birth to four years old. It operates all year round, Monday to Friday, from 7.30am to 6.15pm. At its inspection in May 2025, Ofsted judged the overall effectiveness of the day nursery to be 'Good'. The inspector reported that the setting has a culture of reflection and that staff feel valued and motivated.

According to the Ofsted report, the well-planned learning environment encourages children's curiosity. The curriculum is shaped by staff's regular observations of what children can do and need to learn next, which helps them make good progress. Children get plenty of fresh air and exercise during outdoor play, where they make marks with sticks in the garden and help to identify risks to learn about managing their own safety. The inspector also noted that partnerships with parents are good.

What it's like

The well-planned learning environment ignites children's curiosity and imagination, as they spend much of their day exploring and investigating experiences provided by staff. Staff work alongside children to support their learning and extend their ideas, weaving intended learning into interactions. A good focus on supporting the most vulnerable children ensures they benefit from the curriculum, contributing to the good progress all children make.
