My son has been going to Cranleigh Lodge Day Nursery since he was 2½years old and now is leaving this year for school. The team at the Lodge have been amazing supporting my son with his delayed speech and giving me tools to help him at home. Each individual teacher and support worker gave him independence, confidence, patience and room to grow along with fun through learning. Best nursery around and should go visit to see for yourself.

All of the staff are so loving and nurturing. The activities the team put together are fun,challenging and educational. My girlie finished her days, excited to return ! We cannot thank the team enough for their support over the years, communication is excellent!! from daily photos and videos to nap times, toilet / nappy notes and meals eaten have all been well documented. A thousand thankyous!! Highly recommend Cranleigh Lodge! Emily2023-03-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son started with Cranleigh Lodge at the beginning of February and I have been so incredibly happy with the nursery as a whole. The staff have been welcoming, kind and reassuring. I was apprehensive about my son starting as he spent the first year of his life without spending much time away from me but the team made everything so easy. They came up with a settling plan to suit our individual needs and were fantastic at welcoming my son into the nursery as well as keeping me in the loop and reassuring me of how he was doing. I cannot thank them enough for making what was a difficult transition for us both, super positive! Jo Wilson2023-02-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so happy with this nursery. We had an awful experience with a previous nursery (Tops) and had to move my son. I did my research lots before choosing Cranleigh Lodge and I’m so glad I did! The staff were fantastic helping my little one to settle. He was very anxious at first and would vomit when going in. The staff never made me feel like this was an inconvenience and were so kind and nurturing with him. He loves all the staff there and has settled so well now. We have since moved to xchurch and whilst in some ways, it would make more sense to put my other little one into a xchurch nursery, we have decided to make the extra trip and put him into Cranleigh Lodge too because we know he will be so well looked after. The activities the staff come up with are so creative too and the kids are well stimulated. Their communication is also excellent! We get pictures every day! And videos too sometimes. Really can’t fault it and would recommend to anyone. It has a real family vibe. amy bee2023-01-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our daughter received a warm welcome at Cranleigh Lodge when she started at 6 months old. For me, the best thing about Cranleigh Lodge is that it feels like all the staff really care about the children. Every one of them knows our daughter’s name, even the ones that look after the older children instead, and it feels like the staff are part of one big family. They send us photo updates every day with a description of what activities the babies have been focusing on that day. They provide useful updates on an app with details of food eaten, nappy changes, and when/how long she’s napped, which is really helpful. We’ve had nothing but positive experiences with Cranleigh Lodge and would certainly recommend them! Keydma Miguel2023-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It is the best nursery I could ever choose for my son. Since he starts he had a great development in every skills. The staff are lovely and very carefully. Highly recommended. Joelle Adams2023-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just a fantastic nursery ! Great staff , all go out their way to make it extra special. My 3 year old is so happy and loves the staff so much. He’s also so excited to come home and discuss his day. They always upload so many photos of their day which is lovely and personal. At Christmas they out on an amazing party for the the children. Honestly it’s such a lovely nursery and I’m so lucky I found it for my child !!! Harriett Freeman2023-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both of my children attend Cranleigh Nursery - the eldest who’s been going for 2 years loves his time there, the staff go above and beyond and the communication received daily allows me to know what’s going on - as trying to get information out of a 3 year old is impossible!! I’d highly recommend to anyone thinking of a safe and educational environment for their child. Tiffany Edmunds2023-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son started with Cranleigh lodge at 9 months old mid pandemic and he has absolutely loved it since day 1. As a full time working single parent it was so important to me that I felt comfortable leaving him everyday but staff really do treat the children like family and it’s obvious how much they all love what they do. He has thrived at Cranleigh and will leave as a very confident happy pre schooler ready for big school with some fond nurseries . I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough. Faye mitchener2023-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm so impressed with this nursery & how they are not only with my son but with us parents too. My son needs extra support with his speech that with his extra funding have got a member of their team to learn makaton to help my son learn & communicate with them & other children. (I'm learning at home myself) Hannah, Katie are lovely supporting me when I need to come in to talk about what we can do at home to help him. My son has a real soft spot for Jade & Angie when he's in their care. Keep up the excellent work and have recommended you to friends already.
