This is the third nursery our eldest daughter has attended, and by far the best. The teachers are amazingly caring and know each of the children so well. The teachers communicate regularly with parents and keep us updated daily on what the children have been up to. The children do a wide range of crafty
activities and spend time in the garden daily - our eldest is always so excited to tell us about her day. Our second daughter has now also joined the baby, then the toddler class and settled so quickly, loving the small baby class and teachers. I couldn’t recommend the nursery so highly and we will be sad when our eldest leaves for school next year, although we know she will leave well prepared for school.

The nursery has been amazing. I have 2 kids and they love it. They have been secure and independent while being incredibly creative.
The staff is nurturing and pleasant. The other aspect that has worked very well for us is the communication. The staff has been very prompt and intuitive. Very pleased
that we chose Christopher Robins.

Our son has been at Christopher Robin London Road for over 2 years now - he’s happy to go in each morning and is always full of excitement at the end of the day with everything that’s happened “today at nursery”. He’s absolutely thrived and we have been so happy with the care, support and learning he
has received there.
Wonderful staff, strong communication with parent and good opportunities to engage with how our child is doing. We really enjoy the stay and plays and being able to see him within the nursery settings, and it’s brilliant to regularly catch up with his key teacher and hear how he’s getting on. Over the past year we have had some changes in our family situation and the nursery have been amazingly supportive and accommodating - we have been so impressed and grateful.
Would definitely recommend CR London Rd to local families.

This is just the most wonderful of settings - the team at Christopher Robin London Road have created such a wonderful and nurturing environment for both of my children. My son is currently in Tiggers and has developed wonderfully during his time in each room. The team have embedded the Montessori approach
so thoughtfully and are so hands-on and caring towards each of the children. They take time to get to know the children as individuals and focus on their strengths. The team are always happy to speak when you have any questions and nothing is ever too much trouble. The nursery manager is very approachable and hands-on, and she and the team are excellent role models. My daughter has just started in the baby room and the team have been so kind and caring in helping her to adjust.

Christopher Robin (Guildford) has been the perfect place for our little girl. The staff couldnt be more caring, nurturing, focused on child development and full of fun! My daughter started when she was 1, left at 4 for school and its been the best start for her.
The staff are amazing, as a first-time
parent having their support through every stage has meant a lot. I also found it hard sending our daughter to nursery but with Christopher Robin, it was meant to be.
She has grown in confidence tremendously, developed practical and social skills and is so ready for school as a result.
The lead-up to school has been so great, she literally ran to school on her first day and hasn't looked back, thanks to the lovely talks she had with her teachers. Thank you to the team so much!

My child attended the nursery from when they were 10 months old - 3 years old and absolutely loved her time there. The progression she’s made with her learning has been so lovely to see and she formed some lovely bonds with staff and other children. We will really miss Christoper Robin and would recommend
it to other parents.

Both our son and daughter have attended Christopher Robin Day Nursery - London Road (Guildford) and its been a great experience. The staff have supported us from being new parents dropping our baby off, all the way through every stage of development, with such care and gentle reassurance. Our children
have been very happy, made lasting friendships and have moved onto school perfectly prepared for the next chapter. Thank you so much.

My son and daughter attend in two separate classes and have the best of days. My daughter has just graduated to attend school in September 2023 and as a summer baby I was anxious about how she would settle but the team at the nursery have been so patient and kind, getting her so excited to start school.
They both have the best of days and the care from the staff is wonderful. I am constantly impressed. I will always refer people here. My most precious people are loved, encouraged, supported and kept safe.

We are so happy with Christopher Robin Day Nursery and have been from day one. All the staff are so lovely, the room's full of love and fun and all the children are clearly very happy. Our daughter is always smiling when she talks about nursery and the fun she's had during her day. I can't recommend
Christopher Robin enough and we'll be sad to say goodbye when our daughter goes to school.

My daughter attended from 1 year until 4 years and has had the most fantastic start in life because of it.
I can’t thank the staff enough from the bottom of my heart for all the fun, care, love, education and well-being.
My daughter has had a great experience and skipped in every single day. She
is now ready for school, super social and confident. Would thoroughly recommend.
I wish there was more garden but love that there is a park so close and that it’s such a town centre location.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.856)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.856) out of 10 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - London Road (Guildford) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.856 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - London Road (Guildford) is calculated as follows: ( (315 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 360 Ratings = 4.856

  • b) 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 - London Road (Guildford) is based on 30 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 30 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
