Great nursery, my child enjoys being at nursery. I like that we can use the website to log in and see pictures of what he’s doing throughout the day and the report on there at the end of the day. Pick-ups and drop-offs are easy, using a website to join a queue. Good food each day and lots of space outside
to play with all the toys. My child’s learnt a lot of new things from being at nursery, glad we chose this one.

I love that her carer genuinely cares about my daughter's development. My daughter adores her carer. My daughter has changed so much, her confidence, speech and general social skills have improved greatly. My daughter is coming out of her shell more and loves her nursery days. In general, Christopher
Robin Day Nursery is really great and worth every penny.

We started here a few months ago, and my son absolutely loves it. The staff are very caring and genuinely interested in his development and enjoyment. They are happy to chat about how he’s doing and discuss plans for things like toilet training and communication worries so that we can make a plan that
tracks across nursery and home life.
They’ve got a big garden with loads of different equipment and activity areas, so the children can spend much of the day out in the fresh air. He looks forward to going in the morning, jumps into the arms of whichever staff member collects him at drop-off, and comes back happy and worn out in the evening, so I know he is being well looked after. The nursery is excellent at communicating - every session we get a detailed account of what he’s been up to and how it relates to his development, as well as photos.

Both our children have attended Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Woking from age 1 through their preschool years. We are very happy with the nursery. Staff are loving, attentive and highly skilled at managing this age group and there is always a diversity of high-quality activities that help the children
develop as whole people - socially, emotionally, athletically and using their imaginations. There are good maths and phonics activities for the older groups, although we are less concerned with this aspect. The menu is healthy and has good variety and children learn to serve and feed themselves and clear the tables. We have felt confident and grateful that our children have had the chance to grow, play and make friends in this wonderful setting.

Our daughter has been at the nursery since she turned 1. We have been very impressed with how she has developed since she has attended the nursery, especially in her current room. The range of activities has been great for her and she is constantly excited to go in each day. Her teachers have been friendly,
approachable and helpful and we feel well informed about her development and progress. Seeing everything she has been doing each day online is lovely to have as well. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery to any of our friends or family.

We can’t fault Christopher Robin Day Nursery, both our children have gone through it and both have really loved it. The staff are friendly, caring, patient and very flexible to individual children’s needs. The garden is wonderful, a huge space to play and interact with the other age groups. The activities
are great, from art to sports and gentle learning of basic numbers and letters along the way. We have loved sending our children here and would highly recommend it.

We’ve really loved our daughter being at Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Woking. From when she joined at a year old through to now being 3, we’ve watched her flourish and enjoyed hearing about all the exciting activities she gets to enjoy and learn through. Every member of staff brings their own individual
warmth to our child’s day and we feel very lucky to have them as part of her development. Would highly recommend and hope our second child will join her in a few months.

This nursery has been wonderful for my twins (almost 2). The staff are kind, caring and attentive and we really feel like we are part of a family-feel environment. The independence they practice in the rooms has meant the twins have thrived and I can see a difference in their confidence since they started
here. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Set up is very homely and encourages learning.
Overall, management and one-to-one interaction with kids is the key highlight.

We have had an excellent experience of Christopher Robin Day Nursery for our two daughters. We have found the team in both the rooms and the office to be very responsive to requests and needs and both our daughters clearly love and trust the nursery. I didn’t rate the food here as I haven’t seen it
myself but I know that my daughter comes home happy and well-fed and I’m pleased the snacks are healthy. Value for money: yes absolutely in terms of the quality of the setting, service and care provided; it is expensive for us but that is a problem with government childcare policy and funding, not the nursery’s fault. I appreciate the nursery’s efforts to manage the challenges of the current context and the cost to parents. We really value the overall ethos, homely setting and amazing garden and our daughters clearly love the nursery, have had all the support they need for their development and come home happy every day.

A wonderfully encouraging learning environment staffed with people who are genuinely passionate about your child’s development. In two years neither of my children have ever come home having had a bad day; they love their days at Christopher Robin Day Nursery. Our eldest will no doubt be very sad to
move on when she starts school. I have nothing but positive things to say about the nursery.

Had 2 of 3 kids attend 2019-2023. Central management is disconnected from the impact of decisions on families. When responding to concerns raised it is business first (understandable to an extent, but not wholly as their business is children) & rationalising everything. The Woking manager is not visible
nor personable. Our experience has been she is unapproachable, defensive, and unapologetic. The deputy manager is really enthusiastic and invested in the nursery. Her passion for children and their families is very present. By and large, my boys have been well cared for by their key workers with concerns raised about one two years ago. Two in particular we are sad our third won’t be with at nursery. Third is not attending with very late notice they had no room and no communication beforehand. It was a concern or attempt to come up with a solution. Our settled three-year-old has moved to be with his brother at an alternative nursery. The manager never acknowledged three-year-old leaving or even pretended he would be missed.

Thank you for your comments, we are extremely sorry that your experience with us has been tarnished and we take your feedback very seriously. Thank you also for your positive comments about members of the nursery staff team.


We acknowledge that our communications with all parents on our waiting list at the time you refer to did not meet our usual standards and have taken measures to ensure that this does not happen in the future. We have now made changes to all waiting list administration procedures to ensure that parents are given as much notice as possible if we are unable to meet their needs. We fully accept that there were failings, and we are doing all we can to improve all communication with parents.


Once again, we apologise that we failed to meet your expectations and we sincerely wish your family all the very best for the future.

Our son has been attending Christopher Robin since September 2020 and has transitioned between the three rooms. We recently had our 1st stay and play in Rabbits which was a great way the nursery interacts with the parents as the kids love showing their parents their room and what they do. The teachers
are caring and work to build soft skills and developmental things like holding a pen. Our son loves the outdoor play and the French on Fridays, I've recommended Christopher Robin to other families and wouldn't hesitate to do so again.

Both of my children have attended the nursery. My eldest only joined for a year before school and the education set him up very easily for school and he was settled so well into the room. The outside area is so lovely for the children and they make use of it all the time. The nursery workers are so
friendly in all of the rooms and really care for the children in a lovely manner.
My youngest started at a year old in the baby room and also settled so well. He wants to come to the nursery and helps get himself ready to go in the mornings. The nursery workers are also very attentive to the younger children, have been very good and vigilant with his allergies, and supported us in improving our child's routine which had been a struggle at home. We are very happy with the nursery and know when they are there they are safe and happy. The app that the nursery has is lovely to be able to see the pictures of their day and any special activities they have done also. So many other activities, cooking and French.

Christopher Robin Day Nursery is a brilliant nursery. Our 16-month-old started three months ago and has blossomed since he started there. The staff are friendly and communicative and our little one clearly trusts them and seeks comfort with them. They have great facilities, a lovely garden and put effort
into doing creative arts and crafts and messy play. I would highly recommend! I leave our little one there every day with a peaceful feeling and find a happy boy when we come pick him up.

We have two children at the Christopher Robin Day Nursery in Woking, having moved here in June 2020. The nursery is generally excellent but its major strength is its people. That is the case across the three classes, our son and daughter have settled very easily. The key people allocated are genuinely
invested and really care about the kids' well-being and development. Their outdoor space is massive and has a pretty good variety of extracurriculars such as French on Fridays. Would definitely recommend it to new parents.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.927)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.927) out of 10 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Woking is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 52 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 52 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 4.927 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Woking is calculated as follows: ( (572 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 616 Ratings = 4.927

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Woking is based on 52 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 52 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
