  • Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham, Cobham
The Cobham nursery has been fully refurbished to a very high quality specification. The building is fully air-conditioned throughout and has CCTV in all rooms. There is a garden area and a fantastic range of toys and equipment for the children to play with and learn from. There is also a separate sleep room for babies.

The staff team are carefully selected, trained and inducted so that they can deliver the high standards of care and education that Perfect Start expect.

In order to maximise each learning opportunity for the children, the nursery use 'in the moment' planning, which enables the staff team to develop each individual 'teaching moment' that occurs during the day, without the burden of additional paperwork to complete. This results in a tailored learning programme for each child that is adaptable, full child-centred and leads to maximum individual development for the children.

The Company Directors have worked with over 100 day nurseries previously, including as Practitioners in the nursery rooms. This invaluable experience has been ploughed into Perfect Start to ensure that each of the nurseries have all the tools that they need to embrace the company ethos of the Children being at the heart of every decision that is made.

Every child has their own bespoke settling-in programme and individual care plan written for them before they undertake their first visit to the nursery. Parents are then able to watch their child settle in on the CCTV cameras in the parent room.

Our daughter absolutely loves her days at nursery with Perfect Start. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, and take great care of her. The activities which she gets to enjoy are brilliant - varied, educational and fun. She has made lots of friends with the other children and her development
has really accelerated since she joined the toddler room at the beginning of the year.

My daughter settled in so well at Perfect Start and has been thriving ever since. Everyone there is very warm and loving towards the children and I know she has so much fun doing activities, going outside and playing with the other children. It gives me great comfort to know my daughter is safe and
cared for and gives me huge comfort going back to work. Very grateful to the team for their flexibility when we change things and for looking after her so well.

My son has been attending Perfect Start since he was a little over 1. He is now over 2 and a half and has loved every moment of his time there. The staff are all very warm and welcoming and all build such wonderful relationships with the little ones. My son has been slightly delayed in a few areas and
this was picked up straight away by his lovely key worker and the other ladies in his room. I feel confident and happy that every time my son goes here, he is having a wonderful time, enjoying nutritious and homemade food and is being looked after by the best. My daughter will be starting in October and it has taken all the stress out of going back to work as I know she too will be in the best hands. Cannot recommend this nursery enough.

We can't fault Perfect Start. Our daughter (now 26 months) has been attending since she was 9 months old, and she absolutely loves it. The staff are all excellent, the nursery is spacious, clean and full of fun stuff for the kids, and has a great outdoor area.
We had a bit of an unplanned switch to
another local nursery for a few months last year, which confirmed how good Perfect Start is. When we had the opportunity to move back to PS, we took our daughter along to meet the staff again, and as soon as we were nearby she started getting excited, before bursting in the door and hugging all her favourite staff. She's still the same every day when arriving.
One excellent thing which nowhere else seems to have is the keypad entry for parents, so you can go in and chat with the staff inside, and have your kid introduce you to all their mates which she loves to do. Makes a real difference to the experience to be allowed in.

Our little one has taken a bit of time to settle into nursery, however with the right attitude, love and care from the team at Perfect Start Nursery we’ve finally had a few positive days where he’s been collected smiling and full of beans.
I can’t recommend the nursery enough and thank you to the manager
and her beautiful team.

Reply from Beth Lake, Office Administrator at Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham

Thanks for leaving us such a positive review. We are pleased that your child is settling in so well now. We at Perfect Start understand the importance of every individual child settling in their own unique way.

Two members of staff deserve to win a prize every day! My daughter sings the good morning song they made up and talks about the pretty hairstyles one lady does for her non-stop. I am so grateful that they look after her and make her nursery days so fun. The Cobham Perfect Start Day Nursery is such a
happy and positive place, all the staff are amazing, and it's really come to life since the new manager took over.

Perfect Start Cobham is a lovely nursery. The facilities are fantastic and they keep the place really clean and tidy. I'm always really impressed with the range of different activities that are set up every day and my son has continued to develop well there. My son is in preschool and the staff that
work in there are so lovely and kind to him. The food is great and the variety they offer has really helped him try more foods and become less of a fussy eater. Thank you, especially to the team in preschool who have been wonderful!

Our daughter joined Perfect Start Day Nursery just before she turned three. She completely enjoyed it and is always happy to go to nursery. The team there is really amazing! They provided us with exceptional support and made the initial settling in easy. They even offered to help with potty training
which was unexpected and greatly appreciated. The team keeps a high standard of hygiene, and I really like the cleanliness of the setting. A really caring team, very well set up rooms for different age groups - would highly recommend it to any family in Cobham area!

Our daughter has attended Perfect Start Day Nursery in Cobham since she was three and a half months old, for one day a week. Being born in lockdown and not being able to socialise with anyone, I feel the nursery has had an important impact on her development. She loves going and the updates from the
nursery are brilliant. I can really see she genuinely enjoys her time there. I can’t fault the staff, I feel like they really care for our daughter, I feel one hundred percent at ease leaving her with them.

I highly recommend Perfect Start Day Nursery, Cobham. The building and facilities are of a high quality but most importantly, it is the staff that make this nursery stand out. Within the first couple of weeks of settling here my son developed great relationships with the staff and as a result he has
thrived, growing in confidence and independence, from being a fairly shy child. They take into account the individual child’s needs and adapt their time at nursery accordingly. I could not be happier with the nursery and how much joy it brings my child attending.

Our daughter has been attending the nursery since January 2021 and she adapted quickly to the wonderful and bright environment that the nursery provides. All the staff are absolutely caring, communicative and provide support and love for both families and kids. Our daughter immediately bonded with the
Room manager since day one and continued to flourish day by day gaining a lot of confidence and independence. Last but not least, the nursery has excellent facilities. We absolutely recommend the Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham!

My child has just recently started Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham and he loves it. They have been amazing with him and have really helped him to settle into his new routine. The nursery is an amazing space and he comes home chatting about all the things he has been doing, mainly about dinosaurs.
I am so glad I made this choice.

Perfect Start nursery really lives up to its name. It truly is a perfect nursery! I cannot recommend the place enough, mainly because of the wonderful nursery staff who really do care about every child and understand they're all unique and have different needs. I had to move my daughter from a local
'outstanding' nursery where she wasn't getting much attention and crying most of the time. It was heartbreaking, and I was very close to employing a nanny but decided to try the newly opened Perfect Start nursery instead. I couldn't be happier with my decision. The staff (especially the manager) were patient with my daughter, spending lots of time comforting her on a 1-2-1 basis until she became confident in their care and her surroundings. I was surprised at how quickly she settled there. Within a few days, she was happy and playing with the staff and children, whereas with the previous nursery she spent weeks crying and not eating or napping. A huge thank you to Perfect Start!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.920)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.920) out of 10 for Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.920 for Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham is calculated as follows: ( (266 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 288 Ratings = 4.92

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Perfect Start Day Nursery - Cobham is based on 24 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 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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, which has been reached with 24 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
