Our daughter has been at N Whetstone since May 2022 and we have all had a really positive experience.
Staff are great, professional, approachable and most of all brilliant with the children including those that are not directly responsible for their care.
I am impressed every week by the incredible
menu that is balanced, nutritional and interesting and having eaten some of the food at parents' events am sure it tastes great too. Morning coffee and pastries for parents daily too!
Every effort is made to inform and includes parents including family sports days and special events that help develop relationships with the team and also with other parents.
The setting is scandi inspired but goes beyond just being socially friendly, the thought that goes into play, facilities and activities is clear.
I feel as a parent our voice and concerns are heard and when we have required extra days or flexibility in our schedule it is always met with the intention to help wherever possible.

My son has attended N Family Club nursery since August 2020. In both locations, we have nothing but the best service. He is always happy going in and just as happy when it's home time. Always learning and gaining new friends.

Having seen lots of other nurseries, we were really pleased when we finally visited and decided to send our son here. The facilities are well maintained and most importantly the staff are lovely. I really enjoy all the updates and seeing all the varied activities the staff members arrange for the kids.

As a mother of a child who has sensory needs, I was extremely worried about him settling into a new nursery at the end of August 2022. However, I am so pleased and thankful for the wonderful management and staff at the nursery for paying massive attention to this. I have noticed a big improvement in
his social and behavioural skills and it's lovely seeing how much he trusts everyone that works there. In his last nursery, he would be left alone to play in a corner or spin around in his own little world which is absolutely heartbreaking to see. Whereas now he has been shown to interact, share and join in group sessions.
The rooms are safe, secure and absolutely lovely to be in. Lots of comfy bean bags and very clean.
It's a shame that N Family Club only opened in Spring 2022 & not a long time ago!

I must have visited ten local nurseries and finally stumbled across The N Family Club in Whetstone. This nursery is like no other nursery, it's clean, they have an amazing chef and it's run impeccably. The staff go above and beyond to ensure the children are firstly happy, safe and learning and developing
new skills. My husband and I have noticed a massive difference in our son since joining the nursery. He is more confident, he has made new friends and he is becoming more independent. In the morning when I drop him off, I always feel like I have left him with his second family. There's no better feeling than knowing your child is in the best environment away from home!

I’m happy with everything and highly recommend to friends and family. Staff are very supportive and friendly, place looks nice.
One thing that they can improve is using apron for messy play i.e painting.

My two boys have been attending N Family since April 2022 (3.5 year old and 1 year old), shortly after it opened. The experience so far has been absolutely amazing. My boys have settled in really well and are both thriving. The facilities are incredible. I love that everything is on one floor, especially
for children. All the staff and management are super friendly and always helpful. Drop off and collection is seamless (which is extra important when juggling two kids!). Both my children have developed strong connections with the staff, and my older son has made many new friends! The food is nutritious and well varied which is extremely important to me. I feel 100% comfortable leaving my children with them everyday and know they will be very well taken care of.

My son started nursery in March 2022. We cannot praise N Family club enough. The overall experience so far has been absolutely superb, and our son is thriving and developing very well at the nursery. The facilities here are amazing and it has a great outdoor space to play in, a cooking room and a wide
array of toys and even a parents' area for coffee. The menu at the nursery is incredible and gets changed weekly. The food is very nutritious and we really like that the kitchen has an open hatch, so you can say hello at drop off and pick up. All the staff are all so welcoming and personable and they’re all fantastic with our son, he gets excited going through the front door. The ethos at the nursery is very refreshing, taking inspiration from different educational styles to make it their own. We couldn’t have found a better nursery in the area.

My two-year-old has recently started at N Family Club. The whole transition has been so seamless, thanks to the wonderful staff at N Whetstone from the first point of contact/management/chef/carers/lunch covers. I am really pleased that my child attends a lovely nursery with people who you can tell
love what they do. In just a few weeks my child has made really strong connections with each staff member and I have already witnessed him achieve milestones that we had been trying to achieve at home. The space, resources and methods of teaching are incredible and in line with my own personal values.


I couldn’t think of a better place to send my child to learn and play at a level that I would aim to achieve at home. There is a great level of communication between parents and staff (done through the app) and face to face during drop off and pick up. No matter which carer brings my child to me at the end of the day, they know exactly what he has done for the day and assure his needs have been met.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.470)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.470) out of 10 for N Family Club - Whetstone is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 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 4.652 for N Family Club - Whetstone is calculated as follows: ( (186 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.652

  • 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 4.818 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for N Family Club - Whetstone is based on 18 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 110 number of registered child places is 22. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 22 = 0.818

  • 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.
