  • N Family Club - Balham, London
N Balham joined the family in 2020. A sensitive restoration of a beautiful period building, the space is filled with character while equally purpose-built to support every element of the early years curriculum. Packed full of features including a dedicated art studio and mini children’s kitchen, the huge garden has an adventure playground, gardening patch, sports area, water play area, mud kitchen and sandpit.

N Family Club are striving to rethink early years education. They're preparing children for life in the modern, ever-changing world. Working with leading early years experts, N have created their own bespoke curriculum, covering and building upon the EYFS, and featuring their N extras: yoga, Spanish, cooking, Doodle Dance, and the N passport - a series of cultural trips that N expect all children to have been on before the start school.

N Family Club, Balham has been an absolute joy for us as a family. He has settled in so well and he is always so happy to be dropped off. The staff are incredible and so friendly and supportive. One of my highlights and favourite things about the nursery has to be the enormous garden. When the weather
permits the kids are out there twice a day which is just so good for them. They get to play in the nature on proper grass, not in an artificial playground. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone. I know that lives in the area.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been in N Balham for 8 months now and she absolutely loves it! The nursery has very bright, spacious, airconditioned rooms and has the huge outdoor garden. The children spend a large part of the day (I've seen up to 4 hours so far!) outdoors which we feel very grateful for. It's truly
unique for London in the amount of outdoor space (real grass!) available. The menu is also always healthy and very varied and would be food I'd eat myself. Every day the educators prepare fun and educational tables for the children to play at.
The most important thing about a nursery is the staff though, and I could not be happier with all the educators and managers. They are super personable and you can tell they truly care a lot about the children. The ratios are great and staff turnover in our experience has been very low so far. The staff appear happy as well, which I think is important for a good atmosphere alround. I couldn't rate N more and would highly recommend it to anyone!

We are so happy we sent our daughter to N Balham, her development has come on leaps and bounds since being there, she comes home with new words each week and is becoming more capable of performing different life skills such as undressing or hand washing . The educators and management team are so kind
and friendly and it has a great community feel. Our daughter's key workers have always been fantastic and she has a great bond with them!

My son has been at N Family Club in Balham since he was 12 months old, he's now 2 1/2 and in his third room.
The educators in all three rooms have been fantastic and have really got to know my son.
The facilities at the nursery are excellent, especially the outdoor space which is used daily in all
weathers!
The menu looks balanced and nutritious and I get regular updates via the app on mealtimes, naps, and what he's up to as well as photos.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

A little slice of heaven that I want every new parent to know about. My son started when he was 6 months old and it's his favourite time of the week going to nursery. The team in Bay are some of the loveliest people I have ever met and my son absolutely adores everyone.
The app is so good! The team
share updates throughout the day on your child's progress which is so helpful when you have a little one on a routine. I could not recommend this nursery more! 10/10 also if you haven't already check out their garden.

Outstanding teachers, environment, overall nurturing and quality of education. We had experienced 3 years of daycare, and nursery environments in another location, where we paid almost double the amount we're paying now. None of those experiences came close to what my child gets to experience daily.
So thank you for everything.

I'm so happy with N Family Club - Balham.
Staff are so helpful and friendly. Even the ones that don't work in my baby's room seem to know him and his name.
The garden/outdoor area is our favourite spot, but the rest of the building has also great facilities, everything very organised and clean.
The
app works so well! I love that i can easily communicate with the team and also see updates on my baby's day.
My baby has developed so much since joining. I would recommend this nursery to anyone. Actually got some mum's from my baby group now looking to join.

We are delighted with our experience of N Family so far. Our son has been very content since starting and have made us feel very relaxed and informed throughout his journey. The staff create a caring, fun and positive environment, encouraging the children with lots of different learning activities every
day and supporting them with their progression. Not only do they focus on getting to know the children, but they put importance on building relationships with the parents. The facilities are good and clean and the garden is excellent. I also like the variety of nutritious and fresh food they provide. We are very happy with our choice to send our son here!

Could not be happier with N Balham. There is a palpable sense of positivity in the building and that is a direct consequence of the excellent team. They know every child's personality and are very thoughtful and communicative at all times. I couldn't wish for a better environment for our child, who
comes home happy and well-fed every day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son started fairly recently at nursery and the transition is easier, which is all due to the incredible staff at N Family. They really listened to us when we explained his character, likes and dislikes, how he's developing, what comforts him and they planned the most incredible activities to help
with the children's development. The facilities, and particularly the huge garden, are absolutely second to none, but they really make sure they use the facilities properly to ensure the children are stimulated and having fun. The food, all I can say is I wish my daily meals were as good as that, it comforts me so much to know how incredible the children's diet is. We have seen our son change in so many positive ways in the short time he has been there and I have no doubt this is due to all the wonderful, individualised hard work of the staff.

We have a 3-year-old and 1-year-old at N Family Club Balham and could not be happier with the care and opportunities provided for our children. My daughter comes home speaking Spanish and asking to talk about the solar system! I’m pretty sure my son prefers his educator to me. The staff are like family
and make time for open and honest conversations for the support we need. We are so lucky to have found N Family Club Balham.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.987)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.987) out of 10 for N Family Club - Balham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.987 for N Family Club - Balham is calculated as follows: ( (233 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 236 Ratings = 4.987
  2. 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 - Balham is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 98 number of registered child places is 19.6, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
