A little bit about us…

Kozy Cottage childcare Day Nursery is an exciting and unique setting in Cramlington. Our spacious nursery offers light and bright rooms for each age group and a well-equipped garden with outdoor classroom. Creativity is at the heart of everything we do as our Owner and Manager spent several years studying a programme of music and art-based education classes. Children enjoy music, dance, yoga and creative classes with qualified staff in our own creative areas, and also enjoy both our sensory room and soft play areas.

Additionally, we have introduced discovery and exploration areas for children to inspire learning and creativity within beautiful environments. The nursery is easily accessible as we are very close to bus and train routes and we have free parking just outside. We are a forward-thinking nursery where children are always our focus.

As a parent or carer you are able have access to your child's learning 24 hours via our amazing Famly App. Our Educators and Management team are always available and are just a visit, phone call or message away to answer any questions.
