WHO WE ARE
An Award-Winning Nursery Setting bustling with fun and creativity.
An open plan setting, encouraging confident, independent learners, with seperate and secure baby unit, offering a home-from-home learning environment, with plentiful outside play space for children to explore and have fun. Dinotots Childcare Nursery, located in Newsham, Blyth, prides itself on radiating a ‘community feel’ across the setting, with a focus on teaching children valuable lessons about themselves and the world around them. We promote a sense of self-regulation and adopt a ‘Curiosity approach’ to our learning. The nursery building has been carefully and thoughtfully redesigned to create both an open plan area for the children over 2 years old and a safe and secure baby unit for the under 2's. The open plan design allows for an abundance of natural light, and a spacious area that provides opportunities for children to free play and decide how they want to spend their day through child-led activities whilst being supported and supervised by our qualified and passionate nursery team ...Our skilled and experienced team assist to build a solid foundation for life, through developing independence, confidence and a love of learning and exploration. The nursery has a beautiful and secure outdoor area, enriched with a selection of resources to strengthen children’s physical health, motor skills and emotional wellbeing. Our outdoor area encourages children to explore nature, plant herbs and flowers.As the Nursery is situated in close proximity to Newsham Primary School, the transition to ‘big school’ becomes a seamless experience due to the familiarity of being near the school grounds. Safety and Care is our number one priority at Dinotots Childcare and with plenty of opportunities to grow and learn, we are committed to creating a fun and bright future together.

YOUR REQUIREMENTS – FULFILLED
Open & Transparent
Dinotots Childcare has many outstanding and unique qualities that you haven’t seen elsewhere – for this reason you’ll want to see and experience the Dinotots way for yourself.
As each situation is different, and everyone doesn’t fit in the same box we prefer to discuss individual day nursery costs with you during your visit. Once your requirements are identified we clearly outline the costs to you, there’s no small print, everything aspect is checked and double-checked so that you’re in no doubt of the ongoing costs from day one.
FUNDING AND ASSISTANCE
Help may be available for your childcare costs
We know that, no matter how great or how cost-efficient we try to make the nursery, the cost of day nursery can put many mums and dads off choosing it as an option.
There may, however, be help out there to assist you. There are a range of Government schemes open to parents that can make nursery affordable and we will do everything we can to help you understand the choices and access the funding that you might be eligible for.
Here are a few options:
Tax-Free Childcare – For working families earning under £100k and at least £131 per week (equal to 16 hours at the National Minimum or Living Wage) each who aren’t receiving Tax Credits, Universal Credit or childcare vouchers.
15 hours and 30 hours Funded Childcare – For many working parents of 2 year olds, and 3 – 4 year olds for 38 weeks each year.
Committed to encouraging children to develop, learn and be creative
“Dinotots Daycare is situated in the heart of Blyth’s town centre, commanding an outstanding presence in an 1889 three story building which was originally built for the Bank (Read it’s amazing History Here);
We have transformed this beautiful historic space in to a homely environment for the children to explore whilst keeping as many of the original features to create character for all the children to enjoy. Taking advantage of the large space each age group has been given their own dedicated floor where they can develop, learn and grow throughout their time here. As we’re in the perfect location, we also greatly immerse ourselves into the local community having visits to shops, care homes, the local library, harbour and local parks to support children’s knowledge of the world they live in and their local community.
Come join us and let the world hear your roar!.”
