Your search for a safe and secure private nursery ends Rainbow Day Nursery, Stockton-on-Tees. We have stringent security procedures and all of our team members are fully-trained in regard to child safety, giving you complete peace of mind.
Our setting
Our rooms are carefully designed and organised to encourage independence as much of the equipment is within their own reach. The rooms are neutrally decorated and are calm, homely and comfortable. We also have sofas and cushions for curling up for stories or rest, and areas which are perfect for messy and creative play and activities.
Tiny Tots
We have outside areas that children access every day with lots of outdoor equipment, activities and experiences, perfect for encouraging exploration and curiosity for every age range. Children are taken on outings to the local and surrounding areas and out for walks to get know the area close to the setting, visiting shops, the park and the library.
Our menus are thoughtfully planned, varied and nutritious and all our meals are prepared on-site by our experienced cook. We cater for dietary restrictions due to medical or religious requirements and children are provided with fresh fruits, vegetables and drinks throughout the day.
We pride ourselves on proving a stimulating and inclusive environment where every child is valued as an individual and families are welcome, ensuring effective partnerships which provide consistent care.
Our ethos
We provide a warm and friendly, secure and stimulating environment in which each child can reach his or her full potential.
We aim to provide a wide range of activities and learning experiences which will enable each child the opportunity to develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually whilst encouraging self-confidence, independence and respect for themselves and others.
We believe that the welfare, protection, safety, care and education of every child in our setting is paramount and we aim to provide the very best we can to ensure that each child reaches their full potential and is happy and healthy while in our care.
Our staff
Each member of our caring staff is carefully selected through a robust recruitment and selection process and an enhanced DBS check. Once selected, they are provided with a thorough induction process and enabled to settle into our routines, working alongside experienced staff.
Our teams are trained in first aid, health and safety, administering medication, food safety and hygiene, and many other aspects which ensure the safety of everyone with a balanced approach, without stifling children’s natural curiosity and enthusiasm during their learning and play.

Our key person approach
We ensure that each child has their own key person who will provide them with the extra comfort, security, and reassurance if necessary and will also keep you updated about your child’s time at the nursery.
They are responsible for ensuring that your child’s development is monitored and encouraged, keeping detailed records, ensuring his or her learning journey is up to date and sharing this information confidentially with you.
They support your child while they initially settle in and then guide them through enjoying new activities, getting to know them well and sharing in the fun of the nursery day.
Our partnerships with parents and others
We know that parents are a child’s first educators and we need your knowledge about your child to enable us to play our part in further encouraging their educational development. That’s why partnerships with parents and carers are extremely important to us and as part of this, we ensure that we ask for, and pass on information about your child’s time with us every single time they attend our setting.
We provide an online learning journal for your child with lots of photographs, comments and anecdotes which you can access anytime via a secure password protected app on your mobile, tablet or ipad and computer to view and see just what your child is doing during their time with us and how much they enjoy it. You can also add your own photographs and comments which can be viewed by your childs key person enabling them to have a better knowledge of your child and their development, ensuring a true partnership between the setting and families. Displays and photographs around the setting show you the kinds of activities that your child participates in.
We also have established links with relevant professionals, such as health visitors who can come into the setting when needed to further support children recognised as needing additional input such as speech therapy or around additional developmental or special needs or support.
These relationships are important to us and together, we can provide the consistent, individual care that your child needs and deserves.
