The staff, parents and other children are our extended family, that is how close and good we consider our relationship with Christopher Robin - Cranleigh. Our daughter has responded extremely positively to the supportive environment offered by this nursery. It has prepared her for school and society
in general to a very high standard.

I love Christopher Robin, the staff are really supportive and flexible to suit the needs of my boys. I get a sense that they genuinely enjoy spending time with them. When my son comes home, he always talks about what he's been doing in the day and he looks forward to returning the next day.

My experience with the nursery is excellent. They are very caring and helpful especially as my grandson is a cancer patient, his development is behind. The nursery has done so much to help him and his speech is coming on well now. Nothing is too much trouble for them at all. I would highly recommend
this nursery to friends and family.

I happily recommend the nursery; both of my children have been through every room and have enjoyed each stage immensely. Over the past 5 years, I have never felt any concern leaving my children in the charge of the welcoming and caring staff and brilliant manager, their enthusiasm and interest in every
child is impressive and heartening. The baby rooms were nurturing and caring, and the older children room is a safe, social and stimulating environment in which both my children have blossomed. Even my fussier younger child has enjoyed the food on offer; I have been particularly impressed at the staff's ability to persuade her to engage with new food experiences (most recently Chinese food) and discuss different cultures and celebrations. The activities offered (e.g. French and Sport) and efforts to prepare the older children for school have kept my children engaged and learning and my elder child's transition to school were definitely smoothed by this preparation.

I think the nursery provides a wonderful environment and I'm very happy with the hygiene levels.
The girls that work there are very friendly and I feel very happy leaving my son in their care.
I looked at many other places and this is by far the highest level of all round service.

Friendly staff and a wide range of activities have meant that my children have been very happy here. The staff are willing to help in any way and make the children feel happy and comfortable. As a parent of children with hearing problems, the nursery has adapted to meet their needs and sent staff on
specialist training to ensure they can support the children. This has been a great support and we have every confidence in the nursery to look after our children well.

It is very clear from the moment we walk into CRDN Cranleigh that our son is going into a very happy and welcoming environment.


The manager and her team are fantastic at keeping up with our very energetic boy, whilst ensuring that there are clear boundaries for him to follow. This means that he is

encouraged to learn and experience new things on a daily basis, from cookery to gardening to painting and role play.


We are so pleased that we chose this nursery for our son.

Since joining Christopher Robin Day Nursery my daughter has developed in so many ways. She is more confident and balanced and she is very happy going there. The nursery itself is a bright and fun environment and it provides the backdrop for more effective learning. Our experience with Christopher Robin
Day Nursery is fantastic and I recommend it for all my friends and whoever looking for a caring and loving team.

Very warm and welcoming. Very accommodating towards dietary requirements. Been very flexible for swapping days/adding last minute days. The one negative I have is my son comes home overly stimulated. He doesn't go to sleep at night time. More structure and an end of day quiet time would be good.

Our daughter has been at Christopher Robin for 11 months now, she started in Kangas in December 2015 and has recently moved up to Roos. We have been delighted with the nursery to date - the staff are all extremely caring and enthusiastic and our daughter clearly loves the time she spends there. The
rooms are clean and well laid out and I love the fact that the children go and play out in the garden (in rain suits and wellies if necessary) - it's a great environment.
At the end of every day, you are given detailed feedback on what your child has done - what they've eaten, what they've played with, how long they've slept etc which is good to know. The food seems to be varied and menus are available to look at.
I have felt 100% confident leaving my daughter at the nursery, knowing that she is being well looked after, is enjoying herself, interacting with other children, and learning at the same time. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.

Fantastic environment for my little girl to grow, learn and have fun. The team are brilliant at bringing the best out of my little girl. All three of my children have attended Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh and would not change my choice of childcare. I can work without worry and the smile
and giggles on pickup is evidence of a happy girl. Thank you.

I have two boys at nursery in separate rooms and the staff are fantastic. They genuinely care about the children they look after. Staff are friendly and very welcoming. The children always seem to be doing fun, engaging activities and you can tell that staff have accounted for each child's specific
needs. The outdoor areas are fantastic, allowing children to explore and get muddy! I love the ethos of the Montessori care and my boys are certainly benefitting from it. It would be great if there was a slightly earlier opening time of 7:30am and that childcare hours could be used in a more flexible way to allow those who work a couple of days to take advantage of all the hours available.

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough. The staff are excellent and it is so reassuring that the turnover of staff is so low. The children are extremely fond of them all and always gives them big cuddles at the end of the day. The days are well-structured and the learning is at the right level - challenging,
but remaining fun! The provision of sports lessons by an outside teacher is fantastic and thoroughly enjoyed by my little boy. The facilities are small but completed to a high standard. I am particularly impressed with the teaching aids and the food is amazing - I've definitely taken some recipe ideas.

I cannot fault our experience of Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh. The staff have always been welcoming, friendly, dedicated and helpful. They really care about the children as individuals. Their flexibility has been amazing in helping me manage work as a self-employed consultant. I will genuinely
miss them when my son leaves for school at the end of this month!

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.
