Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

My daughter has settled well at Christopher Robin Day Nursery. She has bonded well with the staff and is making good progress. The manager is very involved and gets to know everyone and shows strong leadership skills.

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.

Review from Samantha C (Mother of Child) published on 11 July 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been doing half days for a few months, still crying every time I drop him (guilt trip) but the minute I leave he has a ball! He sleeps well, is eating stuff he never has at home and doesn't use his dummy! He's developed a lot in just a few months and I'm totally confident in bringing him
up to full days now that I am going back to work. The team are so lovely, genuinely care about the kudos, giving lots of cuddles and reassuring me with lots of info when I fetch him. I'm very grateful to the nursery and would highly recommend them to anyone, especially those a bit nervous about leaving their babies!

My daughter loves nursery. Each time we arrive at the door she is excited to come in. She loves watching all the other children, even though she is very little for interacting with them. All the staff know her, even the staff who are not in Roos. She gets lots of cuddles every time she comes and clearly
feels safe and secure. I am so happy and relieved to have found somewhere so brilliant.

We have been using Christopher Robin Nursery for nearly 3 years now and are extremely happy with every aspect of care they provide for our son. It has been a challenging time with the arrival of a sibling for our son and the nursery have been brilliant helping him to adjust. I would highly recommend
to anyone, particularly in regards to the staff and how much they care for every child.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.892)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.892) out of 10 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.892 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh is calculated as follows: ( (367 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 407 Ratings = 4.892
  2. 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 34 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 34 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
