Day Nurseries Owned by Thrive Childcare and Education in Aberdeenshire

A smile on a child's face when you either drop them off or pick them up speaks volumes for atmosphere and character of the staff

My daughter and son attend the nursery and come home every day happy and tell me very hating they have been doing that day! Staff are always helpful and go above and beyond for us. Highly recommend this nursery

The staff are so fantastic and understanding. I feel they treat every baby as an individual. I cant imagine going anywhere else. The activities they plan for kids are fantastic and always ensure they have a range of different sensory and learning crafts.

My daughter has recently started Riverview and has had an incredible start. All the staff we have met so far have been nothing but kind and welcoming to the both of us. The room itself has a large variation of toys and activities as well as the large outside area- She always comes home very happy at the end of the day with lots of positive things to say about her day at nursery. I am so thrilled and look forward to her enjoying her time here. I know she will thrive and be very well looked after.

My daughter has been going here for over 18 months and she loves it. The staff are beyond amazing, they are accommodating and considerate of issues at home and help work with my daughter to resolve them and make her more confident in day to day life. My only negative would be that the pre school garden could do with some love and attention regarding the bark chipping as has become a mud pit from over the winter.

I feel confident that my wee dude is in safe and nurturing hands when I drop him off, thank you so much

The staff and environment is fantastic at Happitots and my son has grown in confidence and development over the last year which is fantastic to see, and a direct influence of the team at Happitots.

They are always on hand to support with both my son and us parents when we need it.

We have had an excellent experience with this nursery. All the staff are so kind and welcoming and the way my child is being supported is unmatched! Nothing is too much bother for them and I am so glad I picked this nursery for my little boy to go to.

Our childs development has come along since starting nursery in september. He loves attending nursery and the staff are teaching him vital and valuable life skills while he is their. It is a lovely environment with fantastic staff

My son has attended this nursery since he was one and has progressed from the baby room through to the pre-school room and all staff have been amazing and are so patient with all the children. He loves that they get to spend so much time outside in their lovely garden and out for walks around the village. When they are in the nursery when the weather isn't great they are brilliant at helping him learn through play and he has really thrived while attending here.

Happitots has made a huge difference to our little one's overall communication learning play and social development. The kind caring attitude of all the staff truly sets the nursery apart. We're incredibly proud to have a child at Happitots!

Lovely nursery. They have really helped my child develop his confidence and learn so much. He has additional needs and they are great at communicating with myself and professionals to learn the best ways help him.

My little girl loves nursery, the staff are great and both indoor and outdoor environment fantastic. With school approaching this year, the nursery are doing a great job of preparing her for school. Working on her writing, letters and numbers. She loves the food and snacks and often asks for seconds!

My son loves his time at nursery and his confidence has grown so much since attending. The staff are so helpful and the kids have lots of fun both indoors and outdoors. He has attended since he was 1 and moved up through each of the rooms in the setting.

I'm delighted with the care my daughter has received since starting corner house. The staff in the teddies room are very attentive to her needs and are always trying hard to make her experience as enjoyable as possible. They go above and beyond to settle her if she gets upset at drop off and nap time. Thank you ladies, I'm very grateful for everything that you do.

Corner House is a fantastic nursery. My daughter has attended for the past two years and it is like a home from home. The staff have been excellent in supporting her from her first settling in days, through transitioning rooms, and through any wobbles in confidence along the way. She has formed close bonds with the staff who treat her with love and respect. They go the extra mile to make her time at nursery both fun and educational, supporting her development socially and academically.

Since he's been there we've been hugely impressed with the range of activities/experiences that the children get to take part in. The staff put in so much work to make sure each day is different and keep the children interested. They very quickly formed a positive relationship with our son and he is clearly happy when interacting with any staff. We would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

My son has been at Happitots for a year and a half now, and he loves it. All the staff are great with him and always so helpful. If I ever has an issue or question, they are always so helpful and communicate well. I fully trust them when it comes to the care of my son.

Both of our boys attend Corner House nursery and absolutely love it. The staff are really lovely and make it a special place for them both. It is always overwhelming returning to work and putting your children to nursery but the nursery and staff have made this as easy as possible for our family. We couldn't recommend them enough! Our boys love playing with the other children, nursery workers and learning news things. They are always so excited to go!

The staff at Corner House are absolutely fantastic. I feel extremely confident leaving my child in their care and am regularly updated with what he has been getting up to. The nursery promotes lots of outside time for the children and they often go on walks to the local park, they are constantly kept busy and stimulated. This is the second child i have put through corner house and i am extremely happy with the level of care my child receives and the effort they put into his development.
