N Family Club couldn’t be more excited about their new nursery in Dollis Hill. The purpose-built and modern space is located just a 10-minute walk away from Dollis Hill station. The nursery features large open playrooms, a dedicated art studio and a state-of-the-art mini kitchen. There are two garden spaces, with plenty of space for playing outdoor games. Regular Forest School-inspired sessions (where children build dens, explore bug hotels and cook outside) and local community trips also form an important part of the core programme.

The nutritious nursery meals are cooked fresh every day by in-house chefs and have been designed with the support of Laura Matthews, the former Head of Nutrition at Jamie Oliver. N have designed a nursery experience with the whole family in mind, and a service that puts you first. So for parents, there is a dedicated front-of-house team who are ready to welcome you each day. To brighten your mornings, there is a breakfast bar serving fresh coffee and snacks for you to grab as you drop off. They have also created The Family Hub: an online platform packed with advice for the early years, child-approved recipes, activities recommended by educators to try at home, and access to a series of online parenting events with leading experts,

Working with leading experts, N has developed a progressive learning programme unique to N, and entirely bespoke to each child. Designed to inspire and prepare children to thrive in the modern world, it includes subjects such as yoga, Spanish, cookery, science, art, and global citizenship. N also believe that in order to provide the best possible learning environment for children, it's important to invest in the team's development too. N support their educators to pursue further early years studies through their in-house training scheme, The N Academy.

Could not be happier with my experience so far at the nursery, the staff have been very attentive and the nursery itself is very hygienic and offers so much for the children to do. This has made the overall settling-in experience for my 18-month-old run very smoothly. Would absolutely recommend it to
any parents in search of a nursery.

Great nursery and staff. Hope the level of service stays the same as my child progresses to the different rooms. Would be great to have more events throughout the year to formally inform parents on the child's development.

Just like my first son, my second son is also attending this nursery. The spacious rooms and friendly staff continue to impress us. He particularly enjoys playing with other kids. We feel confident that the staff's dedication to each child's well-being extends to my son as well. In addition, we've noticed
he is becoming more open and friendly with other people since starting at the nursery.

Lovely nursery, really accommodating and keeps parents informed at all times. Lovely welcome pack to help settle in, really well organised with an array of activities planned for each day. The outside garden isn't huge but they use it really well and because you can see it from the main room it makes
the room look really bright and airy. The menu looks delicious and very nutritious. Kids are well looked after and loved.

Fantastic nursery. The staff are very kind and caring. Facilities are great, as are the activities they do with the children. After taking a few weeks to settle in, our daughter now loves going to nursery.

We honestly couldn’t be happier with N Family Club-Dollis Hill. Our son’s amazing key worker and the whole “Wildwood” room staff made my child quickly comfortable and after a few weeks, he’s been going into nursery so happily. It felt very hard to leave our 12-month-old after a whole year maternity
leave and I can’t be thankful enough for the way N Family workers helped and reassured us. They provide fun, creative, holistic activities in a beautiful, safe, positive environment.

My daughter has settled in very well with N family, three staff members in particular are amazing and were so welcoming to me and my family. I honestly love everything about this nursery, from the daily updates on the app to the parent breakfast bar which is so convenient if you’re on the go. I will
definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

My son started in August (2023) and is still attending, since he has joined the nursery he has been so happy and I've noticed his confidence has progressed. All staff in N Family Club (Dollis Hill) are friendly and supportive. I'm happy with all the advice and support we get from the key workers and
management team. The nursery is very clean, food for kids provided is well-presented and healthy. Reception area is very welcoming, coffee and breakfast provided for parents during drop-offs in the morning.

Our son has just started nursery at N Family Dollis Hill and has had a wonderful experience so far. The staff are friendly and professional and my son has responded well to all of them. They have great facilities and the nursery classroom is clean and well presented. So far they've managed to get my
son to eat all of his food (which hasn't been achieved at home!) and so we are very impressed with that. We hope he continues to enjoy his time there.

All staff are very supportive and I feel my son is able to learn, play and explore well. There are always new and exciting activities going on at N Family. Nutrition is also very good, as there is a new menu every week.

N Family Club Dollis Hill have been very supportive, understanding and caring, not just of the child's welfare, but also the welfare of the parents. My daughter has not officially started, but I have been given a warm welcome since my daughter has been doing her settling in days. They have very nice
new facilities covering all the EYFS areas and confident my seven month old with fit in and do well here, I defiantly recommend!

Excellent standards. Kind and attentive staff. Keep us updated on our child with useful information on their portal, which is really easy to use and beautifully designed. Bonus: free coffee and croissants.

A very nurturing, caring nursery. It is as if we are all family. My child loves it there. The food sounds delicious. My child enjoys the food. There is a wide range of activities they do with the children. All the staff are very caring.

Staff are unfailingly kind and compassionate. They provide high-quality care and know each child well. Learning environments are well-equipped, light and bright. Outside space is available but limited: greater use of local parks could be made in warmer months. Our child is happy and nurtured at N Family
Dollis Hill.
Communication from staff with parents via the app could be improved to provide consistently accurate updates relating to meal times and nappy changes. Persistent tech issues make parent-staff communications problematic. Company-wide changes affecting the whole N Family group could be communicated clearly to parents before policy changes are implemented.

My daughter started at N Dollis Hill when she was thirteen months and it has been amazing for her and our family so far.
Her key workers helped her settle in much quicker than I expected. By the second week she no longer cried at drop off and now we are two months in, she cannot wait to go to the nursery
every morning.
She has always been a picky eater for solids. Her key worker suggested changes to her milk feeding schedule and now she eats much better than before. She has become a lot more independent, both in terms of feeding herself and play.

As first time parents, we were new to the world of nursery, however I’ve felt my family has been well looked after and reassured by the nursery staff since signing our son up. In the lead up to his first days the nursery shared plenty of information, including a gift box with some essentials, and set
up a video call for us to speak with some of the staff to understand what’s to come and an opportunity for both sides to ask questions and get to know each other.
The settling in days really helped us all ease into this new phase, staff were really kind and welcoming and made themselves available to speak to us. We felt comfortable and confident for the first full day, and our son seems to be off to a great start at this nursery.

The team at N Family Dollis Hill have been lovely and has given me as a first-time mom confidence to leave my baby and be away at work full-time. My son found it difficult to settle in initially - they were very patient and loving in helping him get familiar and settled. I appreciate the N app which
gives an hourly update on what he ate/when he napped/etc. He now loves all the staff in his room and some obvious favourites as well. Overall, our experience at N Family Dollis Hill has been great.

Great teachers, a fun atmosphere. We came here for the food diversity and the curriculum and have not been disappointed. Also, the management team is very warm and helpful to new parents - would highly recommend for parents in the area to bring their kids here.

Couldn't wish for a better nursery. My son loves his nursery and enjoys his time there very much. On top of that, I have peace of mind to go on with my day. The staff members are the most friendly, caring, and professional people I have seen around. I am sending my youngest one there as well when I
go back to work. Incredible staff, engaging environment - I 100% would recommend it to my friends.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for N Family Club - Dollis Hill 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.873 for N Family Club - Dollis Hill is calculated as follows: ( (244 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 276 Ratings = 4.873

  • 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 N Family Club - Dollis Hill is based on 23 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 23 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.
