We’re committed to offering you a nursery experience like no other; and with Godalming, we’ve gone all out. Just a stone’s throw away from Godalming train station, our seven large playrooms are filled with natural light. There’s a dedicated atelier for children to explore art, cooking and wonderfully messy play. Outside, the garden is perfect for outdoor learning and Forest School-inspired sessions, and comes complete with a dedicated baby zone.
We’re all about making things easier for our families, and the car park, buggy, bike, and scooter stores mean you can head off hands-free after drop-off. Even better, our welcoming N Café will serve (much-needed!) coffee and snacks, meaning you’ll be set up for the day in just the right way!

Please note: a multi-day discount has been applied to all 4 and 5 day places.

Fees are calculated based on the 51 weeks of the year that N is open, averaged into 12 monthly payments. Monthly payments will include bank and public holidays as well as inset days, which are payable in full in spite of closure, as our monthly staffing costs remain the same.

3 years +: £108.50 per standard day
Fees include all food, drink, consumables and activities.
Fees are due in advance, and we issue invoices mid-month for the following month with Direct Debits taken on the 27th of each month. For Payments via Tax-Free childcare or Childcare Vouchers, fees are due by the last day of the month. Unfortunately there can be no refunds for sickness or holidays. Any fee increases will be communicated 2 months before affecting your invoice and are based on the nursery’s running costs.
You can extend the standard day (8-6pm) by up to an hour each way at the same hourly rate on a pay as you go basis - i.e. £11.90/hr for under 3s or £10.85/hr for 3 years+; equivalent to £2.98/15mins or £2.71/15mins.
To join the waiting list at N, families are required to pay a waiting list registration fee of £250.
On accepting a place, this fee will become a non-refundable joining fee, and you’ll be asked to pay a £400 place acceptance fee, which will be deducted from your final invoice.
