Staff is always friendly, helpful and caring.
Our son loves his key person and always looks forward to coming in.
When he first started he was 1.5 and we felt he is looked after very well. He is now 3.5 and he is best friends with the key person and the rest of the team.

The staff are friendly and very approachable and know my little boy very well. I get a very detailed feedback at the end of every day and it always seems like he has had a fantastic day. I love the MMC, I get to see what my son has been up to and how he is developing. The garden is fantastic, ha slots
of resources and is well kept. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend the nursery.

Placing my 9-month-old son in the care of someone else seemed at first a daunting thought. It soon became clear however that this team is nothing short of an extension of our family providing a safe, fun, interactive and thoroughly enjoyable environment. All activities are expertly documented each day
along with pictures of an extremely happy child allowing us to create a very special keepsake. The individual care and attention, the excellent facilities, enthusiasm of the team and wonderful food make this nursery second to none. These moments will be treasured and I couldn't ask for better people to share them with.

This nursery is by far the best in the area, after looking around 3 other nurseries we chose Christopher Robin Day Nursery as the staff were extremely friendly including management, the place was immaculate, the resources available for the kids were great and the kids were happy and enjoying themselves.
The place has lived up to standards since my child started, he loves every minute of nursery and never looks back when we drop him off, nor one tear for us leaving him. This is down to the staff been amazing at their jobs. He even has seconds at dinner time. Keep up the good work girls, you are doing a fantastic job.

My son has been attending nursery since he was 4 months old and the girls have been amazing. He is now in the preschool room getting ready for school next year.
I love reading his observations on the 'My Montessori' page. I feel the staff keep me informed of any up coming events. He loves nursery
and has strong bonds with the staff and other children.
The team are a lovely bunch and always ready to help if I need it.

Review from N D (Mother of Child) published on 14 June 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having a little one with several (and severe allergies) the first thing we looked at was the overall cleanliness of nurseries and Christopher Robin stood out to us for that- I felt at ease leaving her in very capable hands and she settled in very quickly. The staff and manager put us at ease regarding
her allergy needs and a year and a bit later she has made some special bonds with staff and other children alike. (But to be honest more so with the girls looking after her!) I can clearly see every single member of staff loves children and the amount of activities they do is so much better than I could do at home - (and also not every mum loves glitters on the kitchen floor!) She loves it and I can see she really thrives there.

We are (and have always been) extremely happy with the level of care and learning provided by Christopher Robin.


It has an extremely welcoming and family based atmosphere and our child loves her time there.


She is thriving in the environment and we are happy we have chosen Christopher Robin Cranleigh

Thank you so much everyone.

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 little boy loves coming to nursery and seeing all the lovely, amazing and friendly staff.
The staff take so much time doing the observation and we love looking at them at the end of each week.

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.

Review from R K (Mother of Child) published on 1 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

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.
