Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
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.

Lovely nursery - very caring staff with lots of fun activities. My daughter attends 4 days a week and is normally disappointed when I tell her today is not a nursery day. Staff are always happy to help.

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.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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!

Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh has been a huge support over the last four years. As a mum, I have always felt safe leaving both my children with the staff. They are friendly and helpful. They listen to the children's individual needs and are very approachable. I would certainly recommend

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter only joined a few weeks ago. We had moved her from another nursery where she had been since she was 9 months old (she is now 3 and a half). I was incredibly worried about her settling in as she can be quite shy but I needn't have worried. She loves it and was made to feel very comfortable
within the first couple of days. The nursery has great facilities, the nursery manager and assistants are lovely and my daughter is being stimulated daily. I am so glad we chose Christopher Robin and I would highly recommend it.

The team at Cranleigh are very caring and knowledgeable. My son always enjoys himself. I love the learning the stories that they create. The outdoor provision is great. The staff give very good feedback and always work with you to resolve any issues. I feel this is a direct effect of the excellent management
of the nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My review would be to cover the entire time that my son has attended the above nursery. I have found that the whole team at Christopher Robin, Cranleigh have been nothing short of outstanding, in their attitude and commitment towards caring for my son. I feel that they have excelled in preparing my
son for the start of his school life. They have successfully recognised his strengths i.e. numbers and letter and continued to push his development beyond the median. Should I have another child I would not hesitate to enrol him/her into Christopher Robin. I cannot recommend the team highly enough as words don not do them justice. Every child should have a "Christopher Robin".

Review from Ellie V (Mother of Child) published on 10 October 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son attends Christopher Robin Nursery in Cranleigh and my husband and I have been very pleased with the nursery. He started in the baby room when he was 7 months and is now 3 and a half, they have helped him grow into a confident, polite and adventurous child who loves to try new things and meet
new people- what more can you ask? I don't worry about him being bored as, when the weather is nice, they go into their lovely garden and when it isn't so nice the children have a wide range of things to play with and do inside! The staff who work there are very friendly, a few have come around and babysat for us, and they genuinely care about the children. At the end of the day, we get a full rundown of everything he has done and they deal sensitively with times he has not been well behaved. We have been pleased that their recent Ofsted was good as this better represents the nursery than the score before. I would fully recommend Christopher Robin Cranleigh to anyone who asks.

Christopher Robin in Cranleigh has provided my son with a fantastic environment in which to learn, experience new things and enjoy himself. We are delighted with the care and attention given to him by the personable and dedicated staff - their energy and enthusiasm are remarkable, even at the end of

This is the first day nursery I have used as previously grandparents had provided childcare. I am pleased with Christopher Robin. As the environment and staff have been incredibly nurturing for my daughter.


The outdoor and indoor space is purpose built and the access to facilities is excellent. The

nursery was recommended to me and I wouldn't hesitate in referring others.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.909)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.909) 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 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.909 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Cranleigh is calculated as follows: ( (385 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 419 Ratings = 4.909
  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 35 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 35 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.
