Day Nurseries Owned by Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries Ltd in Surrey

We had a wonderful experience with Monkey Puzzle. We moved here a year ago, which was a big transition for our son, and he started preschool as a very shy little boy. Thanks to the amazing, caring and supportive staff, he has grown into such a confident and happy little boy. He was always happy to go to nursery, and it was lovely to see how much he grew and developed during his time there. We are so grateful for all the care, support and encouragement he received. We would happily recommend Monkey Puzzle to other parents.

My daughter and son both go to this nursery and I would highly recommend. The staff are fantastic and you can see they really care about the children. They put on lots of activities throughout the day (including messy play I wouldn't do at home!) and take them out on regular trips to the local parks / allotment / river. The rooms are clean and well laid out. My daughter also raves about the food and eats far more at nursery than she does at home! They're both learning so much and run in without a backwards glance. The nursery also put on some lovely, celebratory events throughout the year. Thanks Monkey Puzzle!

I have a daughter who attends preschool here and she couldn't love it more! The staff are incredible and have made the nursery feel like a home from home. I couldn't have chosen a better nursery for her!

My daughter has been with Monkey Puzzle Guildford for over 3 years. We have got to know the team really well. My daughter has learned loads and is so proud to bring home her art work and baking. We will be sad to leave. Thank you to everyone there.

My son recently started here and I have been blown away by all the staff and the facilities. They are the nicest, sweetest bunch of people I've ever met, the children clearly adore them all and they are fantastic at reassuring new parents into this next step! The food all looks incredible too what they offer the children and the building/facilities and toys are impeccable. I couldn't be happier that we are going here!

My son has been attending Monkey Puzzle Lightwater since January, and the difference in him compared to his previous nursery has been incredible. The team has supported his development so well, especially with his recognition skills and eating, and the progress he has made in such a short time has been significant.

He is always happy to go in, has built a fantastic rapport with the whole team, and I feel confident in their care because of their clear communication, willingness to listen, and commitment to working alongside me to support him.

I recently attended the first graduation at the nursery, and it was such a joyful event. Seeing the children have fun together and celebrating their achievements was incredibly special. The team had thought of every detail so each child felt valued and celebrated, reflecting the caring, nurturing environment the team has created. I couldn't be happier with my experience and would highly recommend Monkey Puzzle Lightwater to any family.

Amazing care setting for my little girl. We have especially enjoyed the extra activities for the parents to come and see the nursery and get involved in play with our little one. Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter and then the summer fair. It is so nice to see our baby progressing through the different rooms! We love the app where we can see photos of what they've been upto, I work away for upto 5 nights at a time so it makes me feel closer to her knowing what she's getting up to. The staff are fabulous as always :-)

My son absolutely loves attending Monkey Puzzle Lightwater! He smiles at me as we approach the door knowing where he is going for the day! The team in the baby room are so lovely, very friendly and i know take great care of him. They always give a detailled handover every day, and can tell they really care. One very happy parent and child!!

This nursery is amazing, the staff are so helpful, so friendly and so welcoming. Our son joined last year when the nursery opened, and he has thrived ever since his speech has come on such a long way. He has a great relationship with his key workers, on Saturday 18th july 2026 the staff held a fab summer fair which was circus themed they pulled out all the stops and made the nursery look great they had stools, fun fair games, magician , music, face paint, food, bouncy castle, they really thought of it all. They all work so hard daily to provide the best environment and best education for our children. It is always so clean and tidy. I would really recommend this nursery to anyone who is wanting somewhere for the child to go

I couldn't recommend this nursery more

Monkey Puzzle Lightwater is an amazing nursery, it has a caring nurturing ethos. The children have a fun filled structured day allowing their personalities to shine. All activities are meticulously planned to ensure learning, play, independence, confidence and milestones are achieved. Staff are professional, approachable and knowledgeable, providing a safe and emotionally stable environment so the children thrive. Any issues are dealt with promptly and parents/carers are kept informed at all times. The meals and snacks provided are excellent, nutritious and varied thanks to the great chef. My grandchild is very happy and content at Monkey Puzzle.

I can't recommend the team enough for it all, everyone has been really supportive, helpful and hands on. Thank you

Thank you for giving our son such a wonderful start. We couldn't have chosen a better nursery and will always recommend Monkey Puzzle Walton without hesitation.

My child has been at Monkey Puzzle for the past 6 Months, he started just before his first birthday. I was nervous to leave him but everyone at monkey puzzle has made the decision to send my child to nursery the right one! It's so great to watch him grow and develop in a supportive, welcoming and exciting environment. The staff are great, there's frequent updates on the nursery app and they are very easily contactable as and when I need. My child also loves the food they serve each day! Would highly recommend this nursery!

This was a very enjoyable afternoon spending time with my granddaughter showing me and demonstrating all her many activities. I was very impressed by the staff and their connection with the children.

We truly couldn't be happier with our nursery choice. A special thank you to Georgina, Abi, Chantelle, Amber, Jake and Vicki in the toddler room for all their hard work, care and dedication. You make such a positive difference to our daughter's experience every day!

The staff are incredibly friendly, kind, and attentive. They have been great at checking in on things like naps and feeding and working closely with us to create the right routine for for our son. I feel completely confident and happy knowing he is in such caring hands.

I couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are incredibly caring, patient, and genuinely invested in each child's wellbeing. My little one has grown so much in confidence, independence, and social skills since joining. Every day she comes home excited to tell me what she learned and who she played with. The environment is clean, organised, and full of positive energy. I feel completely at ease knowing she is in such safe and loving hands. Truly a wonderful place.

Since our son joined in April he has had a wonderful experience at this nursery. The staff are caring and attentive, creating a warm environment where he feels happy and secure. There are a wide range of engaging activities that encourage learning, creativity and confidence. The sensory play is so imaginative and links to a weekly theme. We also love the outdoor experiences he gets at the allotment, park, garden and playground.

We love monkey puzzle! The staff are friendly, caring and energetic. There is something fun going on every day! My child walks in with a smile on his face and walks out with a smile on his face. It feels like a giant family!
