We are delighted to partner with the Beacon of Light to provide childcare for the venue's customers, staff and for families in the local area.

It is a privilege to be working alongside the Foundation of Light and we can’t wait to get started.
Joanne Anderson, Siblings Nursery ManagerFounded in 1994, the current nursery at the North East Business Innovation Centre has been nominated for the Sunderland Echo's Nursery School of the Year for its '5 Star' service and providing care that is 'second to none'.

"We are delighted to have Joanne and her team on board as partners, and look forward to a long and beneficial relationship for both parties." Once the nursery opens, it will be open from 7 am to 6pm from Monday to Friday for 51 weeks a year, only closing on Bank Holidays and for a week at Christmas.
