Absolutely impressed with staff care of my child.


My 20 months boy started to talk so much and sign songs they learn daily. The menu is also great daily very nice meals and attention to each child.


I have 2nd child now in the Happy Tots and couldn't imagine my kids elsewhere, so thankful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Great nursery, amazing staff I'm so glad I picked this nursery for my boys after visiting around 20 different ones.
The staff have been amazing with my boys, one of my sons is nonverbal, and in the year has been attending he is now saying around 10-15 words with the help of his keyworker.
If there
is a problem you have no matter what the problem is they always do their best to fix the problem.
Be sad when my boys leave in summer.

I have been using Happy Tots for a number of years for two of my children and the service has gone from strength to strength. Everybody is friendly, patient, and understanding.
They are excellent at communicating and I am particularly grateful for them helping my child to toilet train.
My child has
come on leaps and bounds during their time at Happy Tots and is always excited to attend their sessions.

I am extremely happy and satisfied that my child is receiving the best care and education at Happy Tots Nursery. All members of staff are friendly and approachable. My daughter always leaves nursery happy with lots to talk about her day and the activities she has completed. She is making good progress
academically and personally this is largely due to the support and opportunities offered to her.

My child is always happy after returning home. I can see great progress in his independence. The teachers are very helpful and patient. There could be better communication between parents and the nursery. I recommend.

This is a wonderful nursery, with wonderful staff. My husband and I are very happy with the facilities and the service they provide.
I think what sold it right away was the lovely staff who work very hard to keep our child, and every other child, happy and healthy. Would highly recommend it!

Just one word to describe the care they have for my children and it’s AMAZING! All the staff are lovely but I want to say a huge thanks to one member of staff in particular, the bond that my little boy created with her makes me feel very safe and relaxed when I drop him off. Keep up the good work!

We have always had a great experience at Happy Tots. The staff are caring and patient and I always feel reassured that my daughter is being treated like an individual and that her key workers really care that she is safe and happy. I like that she gets lots of time to play outside (weather permitting)
and her room has lots of things to help her learn and develop. Her key workers always communicate with me and keep me up to date with how she is getting on.

I would like to say that my son is having a good experience in the nursery. He has improved his speaking very much since he came here and staff are very helpful and kind to my son. He feels happy when he comes to nursery. I can see my son has improved his language and speaking, at the same time, he
has lots of fun in the nursery. Also, the key person speaks to us every day about his day and what he has done through the day.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.411)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.411) out of 10 for Happy Tots Private Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 11 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 4.826 for Happy Tots Private Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.826
  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 4.585 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Happy Tots Private Day Nursery is based on 11 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 94 number of registered child places is 18.8. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.8 = 0.585
  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.
