About us

Nunthorpe Nurseries began in 1989 when quality nursery care was very hard to find, child places were desperately short and waiting lists for baby places were as long as nine months. With a great deal of determination Ian Paul (the nursery owners) managed to purchase a building at Nunthorpe which over a period of over six months was transformed into a 35 place nursery. Customers were very impressed and within a short time the nursery became full and soon needed to be extended.

Nunthorpe Children's Day Nursery gained a reputation for quality and excellence which attracted the attention of I.C.I. who were searching nationally for an operator for their prestigious new nursery at Wilton Castle . It became apparent that Nunthorpe Nursery had the approach and hands on management skill which proved to be an important factor in securing the contract.

Within the next two years Nunthorpe Nurseries Group gained another two nurseries, one on Acklam Road Middlesbrough, the other at the T.A.D. Centre near Ormesby. With a growing reputation another nursery was opened in Billingham in 1994 bringing the number of establishments to five. In 1997 Teesdale Children's Day Nursery was opened at Teesdale Business Park at Thornaby in a brand new purpose designed building catering for 62 children.
