Welcome to Noah's Ark Nursery in South Shields

Noah’s Ark Nursery is a privately run day nursery situated on West Park Road in South Shields and has been open since March 2000. The building has been designed especially to cater for the children and their needs and is registered by Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education). At present we can care for 78 children at any one-time aging from 6wks old up to 14yrs old.

As we are a small nursery we are able to provide a loving home from home feeling to all, which can also help children to settle in and feel more confident in their new surroundings. We have been helping to provide childcare for local families as well as further afield, since September 2005 by providing an out of school service to continue helping working parents. All children have access to the private enclosed onsite play area and garden, which is situated away from the main road and provides each child with a safe and secure place to play whilst allowing them to have fun through lots of learning experiences.

We aim to provide children with happiness, freedom, guidance, discipline and kindness in a consistent, secure environment. We recognise the emotional needs of children include attention, affection, security, a sense of belonging and personal growth. They need encouragement to learn from experience, the opportunity to explore, investigate, experiment and be given appropriate activities that encourage children to reach their full potential.

All children learn through play – the principal means of learning in early childhood. Through play children gradually develop concepts, make judgements and use their imagination.
