Our daughter loves going to nursery, she feels very comfortable with the staff and her surroundings.
We have seen great development in her skills and learning. The nursery provides an excellent infrastructure for her learning and development, growth in her social skills with the other children, something
we would not be able to fully provide at home. Staff are really caring an provide excellent care for her. We are really impressed with Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh and would highly recommend them.

My daughter (14 months old) absolutely enjoys her time at nursery. The Cranleigh team are lovely, very supportive and caring, they have welcomed my daughter just like a family. Since starting nursery, she has been doing a lot of playing, learning and interaction with other kids and although she was
always such a happy little girl, she became even happier since joining the nursery! I couldn't recommend Christopher Robin enough.

Great support from staff. All have a good understanding of the needs of my son. All appear to have a gentle attitude in supportive young children when starting preschool. My son's confidence has increased immensely in this setting and I feel all his developmental and emotional needs are being met.

Our son attends the nursery full time, that is 8am - 6pm, 5 days a week. Obviously, we need to be happy with the care, as they see him more than we do in term time. Our son is happy, he is kind, he is articulate, he has good friends. What more, can a parent ask for?
The staff are warm and caring and
yet have a firm touch with the children who are taught to share with others, to be able to enjoy mealtimes together, to play and learn as they do so. He talks about his experiences with enthusiasm and is very attached to his key worker, who show him genuine affection, exactly what you need.

My daughter is full-time at Christopher Robin Day Nursery and she is very happy. All of the staff are friendly and genuinely care about the children's happiness and development. We get detailed daily breakdowns of activities and food eaten.
The online log is interesting and informative and a lovely
way to share progress with grandparents.
We couldn't be happier at Christopher Robin Day Nursery.

My son started Christopher Robin in February 2015. He settled in well then in September 2015 he was diagnosed with cancer. The staff were amazing and truly there for me as it was a difficult time. He went back August 2016 and he was delayed in his development. They did everything possible to help him.
He started to talk and really progressed. They were so proud of him. Christopher Robin was more than a nursery for us they were like family.

My daughter is very settled in Kanga Group. I was invited to a Halloween party which was lovely. Great to see my daughter in the nursery environment, playing and also being able to see her food, watching her eat with other children.

The staff at Christopher Robins Cranleigh are thoughtful and caring and treat the children as if their own. My children have and are having a really enjoyable time here. Highlights from my children are the baking, craft making, sports and French and the garden.
Improvements - slightly more learning
focused in lead up to school and overall central management could be a bit more modern.

Christopher Robin Cranleigh is an excellent nursery.
We feel so lucky to have this on our doorstep.
From the moment we walked into look around, we had a very positive feeling our daughter would thrive here. Wonderful outside play area, light, bright wide area with lots of amazing toys, books and puzzles.
The staff are absolutely amazing and so good with the babies and children. I really look forward to my chat with my daughter's key worker at pick up time. Highly recommended.

All the staff at Christopher Robin have been amazing in supporting my son and me with settling into nursery due to my return to work. My little boy has developed leaps and bounds already in his eating and walking and never cries when he is dropped off in the morning which makes me happy and relaxed
to leave him.
I couldn't ask for more!

Our daughter has been very happy at Christopher Robin for the past 4 years.
Our daughter feels very comfortable at the nursery, she is excited to start the day and see the staff and her friends.
Great outdoor space and free flow classrooms.
Staff are all really friendly and make an effort to get
to know each child and their family.

I have been blown away by mine and my daughter's experience of this nursery!


It is utterly fantastic and I can not recommend it enough. The staff are always happy, smiley and bubbly. They have genuine, caring relationships with the children and excel in their roles.


I receive daily feedback

about my daughter's time at nursery, both through discussions with staff and feedback forms. The feedback forms are brilliant! They include little photos of my daughter doing activities and important information about her diet. I can also access observations, photos and information on her development through an app provided by the nursery.


I absolutely recommend this nursery and have done so already to lots of family and friends!


I was apprehensive about sending my daughter to nursery at such a young age (12 months), however, could not have received more support and reassurance! I know that my daughter is well looked after and enjoys her attending nursery. The induction process is excellent.

My Son joined Christopher Robin Cranleigh from another nursery when he was 3. and whilst I was concerned about how he would settle in, I needn't have worried - he absolutely loves it! The staff are all fantastic and really do go above and beyond. I'd wholeheartedly recommend the nursery to anyone!

Our experience of Christopher Robin Day Nursery could not be more positive. My daughter is at her happiest when she is dropped off at nursery and sees all of the happy, welcoming faces greeting her. She has thrived and developed so much since starting - her eating, talking, walking and socialising have
all come on leaps and bounds. Importantly, the staff really care for my daughter and I trust them implicitly to show her all the care and attention she needs.

Absolutely fantastic. Everyone genuinely cares and there is a high level of personalisation. The environment is designed to encourage child-led investigation but caregivers are always actively involved. Communication is clean and frequent.
We could not imagine a better nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.850)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.850) out of 10 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh 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 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 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 4.850 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh is calculated as follows: ( (401 Excellents x 5) + (60 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 466 Ratings = 4.85

  • 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 - Cranleigh is based on 39 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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 39 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.
