Playdays Nursery Farnborough

from David R (Father of Child) published on 24 July 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our son is now two and a half, and has been at Playdays since 6 months old. He absolutely loves his time at nursery bonding and developing friendships with the other children, and is always happy to spend the day at Playdays.
I firmly believe that having this time at Playdays has greatly enhanced his
development and relationship-building skills, as the staff look to foster a genuinely positive and happy atmosphere.
The staff are genuinely invested in the development of our son l, with warmth and care which is lovely to witness, and it is always a delight to hear the summary of his day at pickup.
We would recommend Playdays to anyone as it can be a daunting and stressful time sending your child into the world of daycare, but it has always been a pleasure at Playdays.

Playdays have been fantastic for both my children. They have helped them learn and grow in the 6 months they have been with them. All the staff are amazing, they form such great relationships with the children making it feel like a second home. The girls have so much fun on a daily basis. The staff
are always there to listen to my worries, and help and support with any difficulties going on at nursery and home. I couldn't recommend the staff and the team enough! We definitely made the right choice in sending the girls to Playdays.

Playdays Nursery is wonderful. My twin boys have been going there since they were 9 months old, and they couldn't be happier. They've made so many friends, both staff and children. They are excited to go every day, and are always happy when I pick them up. The staff are friendly and kind. Thank you
Playdays.

I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for their child. My son has been going there for almost 1 year now.
The staff go out of their way to look after the children and make their day exciting. They pack the days full of engaging activities and all of the staff are very enthusiastic
and passionate about the care they give the children.
My son absolutely loves his time at nursery and it made my return to work a lot easier than expected. The staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly and work very hard to look after our children. The setting is also perfect as they have a separate building for the younger children (under 2's) but also allow them a chance to mingle with the older children at times as well.
It's amazing to see how much our son has developed since he started here and how quickly he is learning. Thank you to you all for all of the hard work and effort you put in.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Playdays and the team who work there. Both of our boys have attended since they were around 1 year old. They have the best time there in a warm, caring and nurturing environment. They have both thrived at Playdays. Thank you to all the wonderful team for your
hard work and care.

We’ve always been treated like extended family, I trust all the girls there with my babies. Both my children have loved going there and will miss it. They are so hardworking but never make it look like it’s ever too much, always smiling and happy. Couldn’t thank them all enough for the brilliant job
they have done on my kiddies and getting them school ready…bunch of angels xxx

We are very happy to see our daughter get so excited to be at nursery each week. She really enjoys going which is a relief to us as parents knowing that our daughter is in great hands. The staff are very supportive especially in times of need which really means a lot. We would like to see more variety
in the food menu as it seems to duplicate week after week not always great when a child attends one session a week. We would highly recommend the nursery to our friends and family.

Reply from Laura Burge, Operations Manager at Playdays Nursery Farnborough

Thank you very much for your review. We will definitely look at adjusting our menus, rather than 3 weekly menus perhaps we could add an additional week or 2 - we will keep you updated on this!

My daughter, who is now in school, attended Playdays Nursery Farnborough, she started when she was three and came from a childminder, the transition was so smooth and simple, she loved nursery, she has even chosen to go for a few days in the summer holidays!
My 19-month-old son now goes to Playdays
and at first, he wasn’t sure and I was worried but after only a little while he started to really enjoy nursery. Now he gets so excited when we get near the building which is lovely to see especially after everything that has happened due to the pandemic. My son is a more confident and happy little boy and you can tell the staff really do care about the little ones, and they are always are happy to offer advice or talk about any concerns. I decided to send my son to Playdays as my daughter enjoyed it so much and loved the staff (they still say hello to her now).

My child is happy and that is key! There is a range of activities, the staff are amazing. The hours are fantastic. If I was commenting on the child experience, I would go 5 stars! If I was commenting on the communication, I would go 5 stars. The reason for 4 stars is the admin and payment side of things.
We have funded hours, yet has to pay for bank holidays (even though the setting was classes), we also have to pay a top-up fee that covers food etc, yet there is no option to bring your own. In my mind, it should be a flat fee with no added extras, and that’s the part that sits uncomfortably for me.

Reply from Laura Burge, Operations Manager at Playdays Nursery Farnborough

Thank you for your review; we appreciate your feedback.
Our fees are adjusted accordingly to take into account not charging for bank holidays.
We charge a consumables charge, opposed to a ‘top-up fee’ on any funded hours for extended funding, which is all made clear on our fee sheet received before registering.
If you would like any further information on charges, please feel free to contact the nursery again, and our team will be happy to explain this.
Thank you for your feedback.

Our daughter loves going to Playdays Nursery and we feel she loves the staff who care for her. We also get the feeling that they genuinely care for all the children which is reassuring. We always get plenty of communication from the management via email and from the staff when we collect her. We love

My son has been attending the nursery for nearly 22 months, recently transitioning from the baby centre to the main house. I wanted to say a big thank you to all the staff at Playdays Farnborough for helping him settle in and feel right at home since joining. He is learning so much and it is great to
see his progress through the tapestry app. Most importantly he is happy and enjoying the experience.

Playdays Nursery Farnborough has been such a positive place for my little one. Her development has come on so much since she started. The staff also really care about the children and there are such a variety of activities. The communication is brilliant we really like the weekly newsletter and the
social media updates are ace. Handovers are helpful and we also feel we are able to ask questions as staff and management are really approachable. We as parents are confident in the care and education that our child is receiving whilst at Playdays. She also loves being there- sometimes she wants to stay when it’s home time!

My daughter loves going to Playdays Nursery Farnborough and it's no surprise why with the amount of fun activities they do. There is so much effort that goes into ensuring the children have not only fun and educational activities but also different types of activities to ensure they are engaging. Playdays
makes leaving your children while you go to work a lot easier as I know they are enjoying every moment.

Wonderful staff and I am so happy and grateful to have chosen Playdays to give my little one a great foundation for their learning in preparation for infant school. It has certainly been a strange year but the team at Playdays were wonderful in maintaining a sense of consistency and normality for my
little boy.
