About this Newcastle Upon Tyne Nursery

Description

The Elmfield Nursery, Gosforth, is a haven away from home where your child can enjoy a secure and special time in their early years and a smooth transition from early care into school life. Staffed by a highly qualified and deeply committed team of professionals, Elmfield Nursery provides a homely and family feel for children, giving them solid early relationships and providing them with a perfect foundation for a happy and secure entry into school life.

Following the success of The Jesmond Nursery, The Elmfield Nursery opened in 1996 on Westfield Grove, a quiet residential area of Gosforth. Housed in the building of what was previously an independent school in the 1920’s, we are conveniently situated for Gosforth centre and surrounding districts and within easy access of frequent public transport links to Newcastle city centre. The secluded location makes parking easy and safe for collecting and dropping off children.

We take advantage of our central location using it as an opportunity to go on local walks, bus or metro trips into town for museum and library visits or Gosforth park.
