Welcome to N Family Club – Godalming. Just a short walk from the station, the Godalming nursery is filled with character while equally purpose-built to support every element of N's early years curriculum. The large playrooms are filled with natural light. There’s a dedicated art and cooking room, the perfect space for children to unleash their creativity. Outside, the garden comes complete with a messy play area, mud kitchen and sandpit. Regular Forest School-inspired sessions also form an important part of N's core programme.

Supported by early years experts, and taking influence from a variety of learning philosophies including Reggio Emilia, Bruner, Forest School and Montessori, N Family Club have developed their own unique curriculum. N want to ignite a lifelong love of learning in every child, and strive to ensure that children are prepared for life in an ever-changing world. It includes subjects such as yoga, Spanish, cookery, science, art, and global citizenship.

As well as being the foundation of your child’s education, nurseries are a new community of friends and – for many families – a new balancing act between work and parenting. At N, the nursery experience has been designed with the whole family in mind. As well as the best seasonal parties and a programme of parenting talks with leading experts, you will also have access to The Family Hub: an online platform packed with advice for the early years.

It's a super nursery, my kids are very happy there and the staff are great. Like a family outside our direct family.
Everyone is so friendly and the kids learn in a safe and inviting environment.
Very happy parents we are.

From our child’s first day at N Family Club Godalming, it has been outstanding. The nursery is bright, clean and inviting, and the facilities are excellent. We receive a warm welcome every morning, and nothing is too much trouble, if we need any help. All of the staff are very supportive, and exceptionally
talented at what they do. Our son’s confidence has greatly increased in this brilliant learning environment, and he loves going to nursery. I recommend N Family Club Godalming to all parents looking for a nursery that goes the extra mile, in every way.

Reply from Victoria Plowright, Nursery Manager at N Family Club - Godalming

This exceptional nursery surpasses expectations with its tailored facilities for young children. Our child seamlessly adapted to the nurturing environment. The caregivers consistently provide professional care and insightful feedback during pickups, while the mobile app offers regular updates. Daily
real-world activities foster new skills in the little ones. The administrative team warmly welcomes parents and keeps them informed about family activities. Notably, the food is superb, with our child enjoying it so much that they often comment on its deliciousness.

Thank you for taking the time to give this incredible review. We are so happy to have you as part of the family. Your feedback is so valuable to us and I will enjoy passing this on to our team members.

The whole team at N Family Club in Godalming is absolutely fantastic. Our daughter loves going to nursery and looks forward to Monday mornings!
We thought she would have a tough time settling in and were apprehensive but the whole team made it a very easy and comfortable experience and she settled
in much more quickly than expected. No phone call was too much trouble and they were so patient with us and our daughter.
Our daughter loves her key worker and has built an amazing relationship with all the team in the fortress. Three staff members in particular have been fantastic!
It’s always a pleasure seeing staff at the front of house and they are always so friendly and welcoming.
We can’t thank you enough for looking after our daughter so well.

Wonderful nursery. This was our first experience of nursery and we were a little unsure of what to expect when we sent our son, age 2. The team has so much passion, experience and energy, our son is clearly very happy there. A slick operation, and an innovative approach to childcare, the nursery is
truly geared up to dual working parents - everything has been well thought through to help you. The team have been amazing at quickly identifying our son needed some extra support, and are guiding our family on how best to go about this. Highly recommend.

N have been nothing short of wonderful. The communication is great, the staff are all genuinely happy, my son is so happy going in (and they were so patient in getting him there). All the staff know him so well and the warmth they have is unbelievable.
N have been consistent, kind and I can’t recommend
them enough. They really are a family club, you get breakfast and coffee and looking after, as well as five star care for your little person.

N Family Club is superb in all departments. Very happy with the level of care our daughter has. I would highly recommend for other parents with child care requirements. Easily the best in the area in my view.

Being an early childhood educator myself, I was very anxious and fussy on where to send our 1-year-old. N Family in Godalming were fantastic from the very beginning. The staff seem very happy which makes an easy drop off knowing they actually want to be there. The environment is excellent especially
the tiny child-size kitchen for baking and art days. We are greeted every day with smiles and a personal wave and hello (and the smell of delicious food). I’m so happy we enrolled at this nursery. They really do go above and beyond in making sure your child has a wonderful, safe, and adventurous time during the most important time of their lives. Thank you N family!

Wonderful nursery. My daughter loves it. And we love it. Slick operation that looks after their staff - so they in turn really look after the children. Fresh way of running a nursery, and it works! Great healthy food, lovely games and learning through play, yoga and dance, and outside as much as possible.
The staff are so friendly and helpful - we feel safe and happy our daughter is looked after really well.

My son has settled really well at the nursery. All the staff are wonderful, so kind and caring. The toys and activities they do are great. Baby yoga and Spanish is a fun bonus. Small garden but my son loves it and they take them out most days. Would highly recommend it.

We opted to move our child to the N Family after a mixed experience at a previous childcare provider. We have been blown away by the care, engagement and all-round experience that each and every team member seem to consistently bring day in and day out. From walking through the doors each day to be
greeted by a warm and energising welcome from reception and passing the variety of team members along the way to our child’s room, not one member seems to shirk from making a positive impact which shapes the experience we have as parents to know our child is in the best care possible.
The educators that work with our child are first class and go the extra mile in all aspects. We can already see how much our child seems to be learning.
Fundamentally this N Family team are printing the blueprint of what childcare should look like for children and parents.
Thank you.

We have had a really positive first few weeks with our daughter at N Family Club. Staff are very welcoming, even staff I know don't work in our daughter's room.
The communication is fantastic and the use of the app is brilliant, both things we have found lacking at our previous nursery.
Whenever
I drop off or pick up, I am made to feel like we are the only people there and that our daughter is priority.

We have had a fantastic experience at N Family Club Godalming so far. Our son settled in immediately and adores his teachers. They plan many fun and enriching activities, which our son clearly loves, and we enjoy hearing about in the daily updates we receive through the app. Our son is a busy little
guy, and are delighted with how much stimulation he is getting at N. The extras are particular favourites, especially doodle dancing! The quality of the kid's food is excellent, and it is a nice bonus to get a coffee and a pastry in the mornings from the parent area too! I would also like to call out the amazing room leader from our son's room, who is kind, thoughtful and impressively on the ball! All in all a fabulous experience; head and shoulders above the previous nursery our son attended.

Excellent nursery. Switched on staff, friendly, lovely atmosphere, great activities and facilities and a very happy child at the end of the day. Also very good communication with parents. We’re really glad to send our daughter here knowing that she’s so well looked after. Quite jealous of the food she
gets too, although absolutely baffled why we can’t get her to eat the same at home!

Our daughter (who’s almost 2 years old) just started at N Family. She is absolutely loving it. We get really detailed, thoughtful feedback on how her day has been every day on pick-up. The staff there are really welcoming, and brilliant with the children. Our daughter has an incredible amount of varied,
delicious food each day. And there are lots of photos of her sent each week, which is a really nice touch! The activities are really varied (with our daughter being particularly fond of yoga and dance!). The nursery is also spotless. We would highly recommend N Family!

Lovely nursery with great spaces and staff. Feel very well cared for and my daughter clearly loves it there. The rooms are designed to be fun but calm spaces with muted colours and no fluorescent plastic toys. Pastries and coffee for parents is a great bonus too.

We could not be more thrilled that we chose N Family Club for our son. N have made the transition into childcare seamless for us and have hired the most phenomenal staff. They truly care for the children's well-being. Our son is so happy arriving at nursery and is beaming in every picture update
that we are sent.
The equipment is all brand new and the activities are varied and highly enjoyable. The menu is out of this world.
The nursery is incredibly professional and proficient in the approach to admin from the moment of inquiry through to real-time daily updates. N Family Club offers amazing extras that really do make you feel part of the family, from the welcome package that was delivered, alongside the breakfast bar for parents and the special events. Every aspect has so clearly had a great deal of thought and attention to detail to create a very special culture. Of the 10+ nurseries that we viewed, I have not seen a more impressive childcare setting.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.879)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.879) out of 10 for N Family Club - Godalming is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 22 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 4.955 for N Family Club - Godalming is calculated as follows: ( (253 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 4.955

  • 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 4.924 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for N Family Club - Godalming is based on 22 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 119 number of registered child places is 23.8. 22 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.8 = 0.924

  • 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.
