My son loved attending Nursery. The staff there were excellent. They were great at managing the needs of my child and dealt with any issues with kindness and professionalism. I would absolutely recommend this nursery to any parent. They have a very friendly and personal relationship with the parents
too. I have always felt comfortable discussing any concerns with regards to my child and felt he was in safe, caring hands. My son still misses Nursery.

We have had an excellent experience from the very start in September 2022. My daughter looks forward to going in every day and has a variety of things to play with. She has developed many skills and confidence since joining this nursery. Staff are excellent and have been a pleasure to liaise with at
all times. They’ve taken great care of her and are very nurturing in their approach!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started attending this nursery in September, coming from another setting, I was blown away with the treatment he got from day 1. I cannot thank the Manager and her team enough for all the support, care and guidance given to him. My son is on the spectrum for Autism. All staff made sure he is
no different to any other children at the setting. Every time I picked him up the staff members made sure all children wave to say bye to each other. This is just one of the things I had never seen in our previous setting. The nursery is very diverse and inclusive, I can advise all parents to choose foundation nursery as a happy and academically positive setting for all children.

Review from Nazifa B (Mother of Child) published on 23 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter has had a wonderful time so far at Foundation Nursery. In comparison to her last nursery, she has built a close rapport with the teachers and absolutely adores them all. I've seen her confidence grow and I feel assured she feels safe and nurtured. She's developed wonderful friendships at
the school. The nursery has done a good job in setting up quickly for the 2022/23 school year in a short time, so I can understand why they have been a little slower in setting up social media platforms for updates and comms with parents. Now they are set up, it's been lovely seeing updates and what she gets up to in the day.


I think it would be great if going forward the nursery is able to make provisions for a non-vegetarian diet so my daughter can learn to eat more variety of food ahead of reception. A big thanks to the team for their support!

My Son has been going to Foundation Nurseries Farnham Green from the first day it opened in September 2022. Six months in and we have seen a massive difference in our child. Staff have been extremely supportive and proactive with all our trouble, they have gone above and beyond to settle our worries
and deliver all the necessities that our son requires. Staff are very friendly and are always willing to feedback at the end of the session. They’ve just introduced an App called ‘Famly’ to keep parents informed about daily essentials. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter started the nursery in September 2022 and she settled in very well. My only concern is the teachers don't communicate well with the parents. I don't get any feedback on how my child has been doing unless I ask them how is she getting on. I've worked at other nurseries before, they used to
write down everything a child has done thoughout the day and at the end of the day. We used to come to the parents and let them know how their child has got on today, what they ate, played, what they spoke about. I just feel that builds a bond between the parents and staff. We need to work together. The nursery hasn't had a parent's meeting yet which would be beneficial. Overall the nursery is doing well.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.247)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.247) out of 10 for Foundation Nurseries Farnham Green is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 5 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 4.914 for Foundation Nurseries Farnham Green is calculated as follows: ( (53 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 58 Ratings = 4.914
  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 4.333 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Foundation Nurseries Farnham Green is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 30 number of registered child places is 6. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.833
  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.
