Lovely environment for little people to thrive! My son (19 months old) very much enjoys his days at Perfect Start and has done since he started at around 1 year old.
Lots of fun activities daily, plenty of outdoor time, the loveliest staff, tasty meals and good routines to help them learn and develop.

Just a brilliant nursery, low staff turnaround and girls that really do care. we can’t recommend it enough. We looked at others but this was by far the best in Farnham. The custom refurbishment makes it a really nice, cosy and warm environment for the kids. A calm setting with great facilities, and
garden space.

My two boys attend Perfect Start and between them have been in all four rooms. We cannot recommend the nursery highly enough. Every member of staff is wonderful with my boys and I am so grateful for the care and effort that goes into getting to know the children.


I am constantly amazed at the imaginative

and fun games and activities with which the children get involved, even from a very young age.


Communication from the nursery management is great and it seems very well run.

Couldn’t be happier with Perfect Start. The staff are amazing, professional and kind. My son has come on leaps and bounds since joining, he loves it there. I never thought I’d feel so relaxed leaving my child. Would highly recommend it.

Both our sons have been at this nursery, preschool and toddlers room since May 2021. Both have/do enjoy their time immensely, with our youngest still attending and running to the door in the morning.
The effort the team goes to every day with topics, setting up activities is fantastic - often you
see them staying late to get things ready for the next days fun activities. Great outside space, which the children love!
They have a good core team who keep things consistent - like any nursery, they have staff turnover, perhaps they could do a little more to update on the changes as soon as they happen, but all in all, we know that it is a great and safe place for the children to develop.

We are really so happy with Perfect Start Day Nursery - Farnham. The team are professional, kind and fun with the little ones. The nursery is modern and delightful. It is safe, clean and a place that our little one who is twenty four months clearly enjoys greatly. She has been going to Perfect Start
Day Nursery - Farnham since November and we can see her developing new skills from her days there!

Our two boys who are eighteen months and three years old love coming to Perfect Start Day Nursery - Farnham. I couldn't speak more highly about the professionalism and care provided by the team. The facilities are also very impressive. As for the menu, it looks fantastic and I am very jealous! Couldn't
rate more highly.

We have been so happy with how the staff at Perfect Start have supported our daughter since she started in August. She absolutely loves going to nursery which provides great peace of mind for us. We have also really appreciated how supportive the staff have been of us as parents. We would recommend
Perfect Start to anyone looking for a supportive environment for their child.

We are so pleased with Perfect Start Nursery, Farnham. Our son has settled in so well having taken such a long time to have settled at his previous nursery. The staff all seem so kind, organised, professional and dedicated to the children's individual needs. We want to thank everyone for looking after
our son so well and are so happy to know he is in a safe place.

Perfect Start Farnham is a professional, caring and really gentle setting. Our key worker is outstanding and all the staff seem warm and experienced. The nursery is clean, modern, and beautifully equipped. The outdoor area is smaller than other nurseries we saw but our little boy loves the equipment.
The nursery worked hard to settle our little boy in gently. We were quite nervous after 6 months of lockdown and our first day-nursery experience but the team worked with us to adapt the settling. We are really happy with the nursery and recommend it 100%.

I have been so impressed by Perfect Start. Our daughter started there in September and she loves it. Before we moved to the area my daughter went to an outstanding and very highly regarded nursery, so they has a lot to live up to, but I am so pleased with the nursery. It is brand new and everything
is beautiful and of the highest quality - lovely wooden toys, a beautifully done garden with so many brilliant touches. The staff are lovely and so kind. A modern, well thought out very good nursery with a great team.

Excellent care from the staff.
Our daughter (10 months) formed a really strong relationship with her key person. Having had experience with other nurseries, I can honestly say this is the best we have used.

I always wanted to send our second child to the same nursery as my eldest. However, when we decided to move to Farnham this was no longer an option. I was nervous sending my daughter to a nursery I wasn’t familiar with. Especially since it was a new nursery and had just opened.
I needn’t have worried,
Perfect Start is even better!
My daughter always smiles when I hand her to her key person in the mornings and is so happy when I pick her up.
The staff are very professional, yet still approachable. When dropping my daughter off I have the utmost confidence that she is in a safe environment that meets all of her development needs.

Our son has recently started attending Perfect Start, Farnham. We are very happy with how well he has settled in, which is thanks to the great staff and lovely facilities. Our son has some additional requirements due to food allergies and we have absolute trust in how this is managed within the nursery.
It's great to know he is so well looked after and enjoying his time there.

I had been looking forward to taking my daughter to Perfect Start even when the building work was still underway. My daughter started in September 2020 and has settled in quickly, she enjoys it and her confidence has grown tremendously. The staff are lovely and helpful and provide verbal feedback on
my child's daily activities, there is also an app that is used to upload pictures, comments and progress reports about my child and I look forward to reading this daily. It is a very nice and cosy environment with lots of innovative toys and activities including a very lovely outdoor space all set up to help the children's growth and development. Most important thing for me is that my daughter looks forward to attending Perfect Start and I feel confident that she is being properly looked after. Thank you!

My daughter is three and has attended Perfect Start Nursery since August. She loves her time there.
She enjoys the planned activities and the freshly prepared meals. The rooms and equipment are all brand new and my daughter loves the outdoor space.
The staff are all very friendly and professional
and are super welcoming. My daughter settled in really quickly. I would definitely recommend the setup.

Such a beautiful nursery with a great team. We recently moved our girls to Perfect Start Day Nursery and I couldn’t be happier. The girls have settled in so well and absolutely love it. Thank you to the team for making their move so seamless, really impressed with the support and interaction the girls
are getting.

Our daughter attends for one day per week, she has settled very quickly and it’s clear she enjoys her time there. The facilities are brand new with lovely toys, outdoor space and activities for the children. All staff I have met have been very friendly and professional, most importantly, it’s clear
my daughter is happy with them.

My one-year-old son has been attending Perfect Start Farnham since it opened. We are really pleased with the care he receives and he has settled in quickly. He does all sorts of activities we had never tried at home, from painting and using chalks through to cooking and playing instruments. We get daily
updates on the app with pictures and videos of him, plus good ideas for how we can help him develop when he is at home. He really loves the staff and we can tell he is very happy and stimulated when he is at nursery. I feel the nursery offers the expertise of knowing how to run a nursery as the Perfect Start founders used to work for a large nursery chain, but with the added benefit of a more personalised service because it is only a small chain. In our opinion the nursery is good value given what you recieve - all you need to do is drop your child off, no packing up nappies and making a packed lunch etc. I would highly recommend Perfect Start Farnham.

Our 15-month-old has now been at Perfect Start for a month and he loves it! The development and growth we've seen in him in such a short amount of time is all thanks to all the staff! All the girls are kind and caring, supportive and attentive to us and our child. They have taken away any nerves and
concerns I had about my child starting nursery.
I don't think any nursery is ever "cheap" and I wouldn't want them to be either as I would worry about their standards - but the level of attention, care, home-cooked food that the kids are given from breakfast through to "tea", that they provide all milk, juice, nappies etc for your child makes it so worth it. A big thank you to all the team!!

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.361)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.361) out of 10 for Perfect Start Day Nursery - Farnham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.898 for Perfect Start Day Nursery - Farnham is calculated as follows: ( (98 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.898

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.463 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Perfect Start Day Nursery - Farnham is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 80 number of registered child places is 16. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.563

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
