Overall Experience

The team at First Friends have been a brilliant support for our son as he has settled into nursery life. We are pleased to see regular photos and updates with all the fun and adventures he is having! It's been lovely to see him grow in confidence and build friendships as he has become familiar with

the staff and other children.

I just wanted to say a big thank for helping my boys settle so well. You offer so much at your nursery. I know both are in good and safe hands. The activities and outdoor play area is amazing and the boys are thriving at this setting. Thank you for all the lovely healthy meals that are provided. Amazing

nursery, we couldn't be happier!

from Alice R (Mother of Child) published on 5 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

First Friends Alton are an amazing team of early years specialists. They have made my son feel welcome and safe since day 1. He has been there just over a year now and he loves going in every day. The activities are inclusive, fun and educational, he loves telling us all about his day. We love all the

programmes they run especially mindfulness as this has helped our son understand his emotions really well. We are kept up to date with his progress and love the hand overs at the end of the day hearing what they have been up to! We couldn't be happier with our choice to send our son here.

First Friends Nursery School - Basingstoke
from M U (Grandmother of Child) published on 15 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

This nursery is outstanding. The care and attention each member of staff give the children is fantastic. You could not find a more safe, fun and caring nursery to leave your child. The staff form a great relationship with the children, and are very hands on. The children get plenty tof fresh air playing

outside and the security is excellent. Daily feedback is consistant and they are always keen to tell you the highlights of your childs day when you collect them.
Highly recommend.

Overall Experience

Our little one has been at First Friends for 2 weeks and I cannot believe the difference in his behaviour since moving him from another nursery. He is always super happy to go in and we cannot thank the team enough for welcoming us to this lovely place. He tells us all the time how much of a fun day

he has had. The best decision we have made for him and us. Thank you all.

from Benedicta C (Mother of Child) published on 12 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I am genuinely happy with my child's progress so far. But I wish there would be a better way of giving information about what to expect and what is going on. I always check the the app to find out when school starts for September 2025 session and couldn't find any information. I had to call the school

and I was advised to check social media. What if I am not on social media?
I sincerely wish information is shared either in a messaging group app for parents or the app.

Overall Experience

Absolutely fantastic nursery. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. My son settled in so quickly and absolutely loves it there. He's offered 5 nutritious meals a day and staff are happy to adapt to his routine. They've been especially supportive of his naps which have changed as he gets older!

They do lots of play outside and always do fun activities! My son comes home happy every day!

Overall Experience

Even though my daughter has only been at Denmead for a month and she absolutely loves it. She runs in every day and on some days without a 'goodbye' for mummy or daddy. The care and warmth she receives have already made such a difference in her confidence. I'm so grateful to the manager and her colleagues

for creating such a nurturing and fun environment. They are all so amazing!

Overall Experience

First friends Denmead has been the perfect setting in the area for our daughter. All members of staff adhere to professional practices, and discussions on allergies do not phase them. The children enjoy a good range of activities and outdoor play, which is seen in regular updates on the app and fb page.

I'm very happy with the progress in learning my daughter is receiving and happy faces all round! Thank you for creating such a wonderful environment. Superstars!!

from Fiona S (Mother of Child) published on 8 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our experience with First Friends has been excellent. The nursery is lovely and my son loves all the things he can explore and play with there. All the staff have been communicative and supportive from the start, explaining all the paperwork and taking the time to message me to reassure me that my son

was settling in well. I love the Facebook photos every day, which allow me to see what my son has been up to each day! And I wish I were there for the food provided.

I'm absolutely delighted with First Friends Nursery - it's been a game-changer for my little one! The staff are like family, always warm and welcoming. They've helped my child grow in ways I never thought possible, and I love seeing the excitement in their eyes when they talk about their day. The nursery

I appreciate the regular updates and communication, keeping me informed about my child's progress.
