What a wonderful nursery! The staff are so warm and friendly and the rooms are light, airy and filled with lovely toys and books for the children to play with. The garden is a super space for outside activities giving the little ones time to have fun, express themselves and enjoy using the garden equipment. I can see how well cared for my grandson is and he is very happy and settled at Castle Nursery. I am delighted with it all.

A fantastic nursery. They helped my little boy who attends five days a week settle in so well. Nicola particularly was instrumental in helping him settle in quickly- very supportive and attentive to his day to day needs. All the staff in the Nest room are warm and seem genuinely happy to see the children when dropping off, plenty of time to chat when collecting him to get feedback on the day and what they've been working with him for on. He went rapidly from not crawling to crawling, drinking from his sippy cup which had been a complete non starter at home and generally his confidence and talking have really leapt forward.

Also love the app for knowing what's going on, food menu is amazing, Jess the manager is super responsive and involved. So happy we chose Castle Nursery Godalming!

I have been so impressed by the opportunities my children have been given - forest school, animal visits, etc - the developments they have made and how great each member of staff has been. I would thoroughly recommend Castle to parents looking for a Guildford nursery.

Our child couldn't be happier at Castle nursery. There are always new activities every morning we drop them off and when we pick them up, they've done a variety of things throughout the day. They make sure we're updated with everything they've been up to and it makes the world of difference picking them up and seeing just how happy they are. The staff are so lovely and management really do go above and beyond to make sure they look after both parents and kids. Super quick at responding, happy to answer any (and all) questions and overall just very patient with us. Would definitely recommend them to any parents considering a nursery in the area!

We cannot recommend Markenfield castle nursery highly enough. Our third child is now at the nursery and with each of our children we have the same consistent high level of care and I really feel each child has been recognised as an individual. Management is excellent and there is high staff retention with a number of staff having been there for at least 7years.

Castle Nursery on Markenfield Rd is wonderful! Archie started at 12 months old in September 2025 and has absolutely thrived. From the baby room to the toddler room we've watched his confidence and personality blossom into such a fun, caring, inquisitive and yes slightly cheeky little boy.

With a professional background in teaching you get a feeling when things are being done right and these guys are genuinely fantastic. What really makes them stand out though is their genuine desire to care. You're made to feel like part of the family rather than just another number. From the moment we drop Archie off to the moment we pick him up he's always smiling.

Despite only having a few words he's made lovely friends and built genuine connections with the staff. The variety of themes, activities and opportunities for exploration and learning are fantastic and Archie clearly loves it. They've created a warm and stimulating environment where children can really thrive and we couldn't be happier!

We absolutely love Guardian house/Castle nursery and couldn't be happier with the care our little one receives. The staff in the Nest have been so kind, caring and welcoming, and they always make us feel reassured. It's been amazing to see how much our child has grown in confidence since starting! They've been so patient with her and us! We're grateful to the whole team for making nursery such a happy and special place. We thoroughly recommend them.

We have already signed up our next baby on the way as we love it so much, highly recommended!

Our two children have both attended Castle Nursery and it has been and is a very positive experience for both of them. The staff are fun, caring and even over the summer in the heat wave managed to keep the children engaged and happy. My two year old considers the staff members to be his friends while also having developed great friendships across the ages with the other children. My older son left 3 years ago and still has good friends from his time there.

The nursery is also great at developing a range of skills and my son regularly comes home with new skills that I wasn'aware he was ready to learn. When he showed signs of readiness for potty training the staff had this in hand and just like that he was potty trained. Both my children have had the same key worker and staff retention is largely very good.

In summary I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone.

It's such a welcoming and safe environment and my second child will be starting next month!

Castle Nursery in Shamley Green is such a lovely place to send my daughter. The staff are so friendly and caring and they always put on amazing activities for the children. My daughter always come home happy and exhausted!

Overall, it's a lovely nursery with a friendly, caring atmosphere, and we would happily recommend it to other parents.

My children love going to nursery, they always have lots of fun and have learnt so much during their time there

The staff at Castle Nursery are so caring and are so good at making the children feel safe. My little girl was very nervous and took a while to settle in. The staff went above and beyond to make her feel happy there and now she skips in very happily.

Our daughter has been attending Guardian house for a few months and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Everyone has been so warm and welcoming, and it's lovely to see how happy and settled our child is.

The nursery is always so clean, tidy and well organised, and there's clearly so much thought put into the activities. They're always varied, creative and imaginative, and it's lovely seeing all the different things the children get to experience.

The room leader has been particularly amazing - so kind, caring and attentive, and has made the whole transition feel really easy and reassuring for us.

We started our 11 month old full time, just over a month ago and it has been nothing short of a great experience, from the first email I sent regarding a place for him, to the updates on a weekly basis. We are so grateful for the team at Castle Nursery for being so considerate and attentive, for always giving extra cuddles on days when needed. He goes into nursery happy every morning, arms wide open to receive a cuddle! The key workers are incredible and very quickly picked up his habits, likes and dislikes. His skills are developing every day and it's incredible to see him flourishing. We look forward to hearing about his day and seeing how his week has been!

The Nursery is fantastic! I enrolled my child there on the advice and positive feedback of other parents. I have not been let down. My son has thrived at the nursery and is so happy. Staff are caring and attentive. I couldn't recommend it more.

My two boys have been at Guardian House since it has opened and are absolutely thriving there. The staff have been so kind and caring and genuinely seem to care about the boys and really know them and understand their interests as individuals. The rooms are lovely, bright and spacious with a fantastic range of activities. Highly recommend!
