Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been extremely pleased with the nursery in many aspects. My son has really grown the past few months. His speech has come on and the nursery workers have really helped with his development. I had him in a different nursery prior and this nursery has really exceeded my expectations, especially
in comparison to the previous one. Very friendly staff.

My daughter grew up with Happy Tots nursery since two years and I could see a real improvement in my daughter's learning skills. Very happy with the work that they are doing with her.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my daughters attended Happy Tots since they were tiny babies. Now they both are in primary school, so they are coming to Happy Tots for The Holiday Club.
I am extremely happy with the care provided. Over the years I have seen continuous development, both staff and the place itself in order
to ensure the best childcare is provided.
When my girls are coming to the club I know they are in a safe environment and are involved in a variety of activities which makes their day super fun. Thank you Happy Tots.

Very good first impression. My son settled in within a few days - all went according to plan. He is happy to come here, even at home, he talks a lot about his key person and the toys he plays with.
Excellent outside play area - an overall safe place for children to play.
Excellent staff - can recommend
it.

Since my child started nursery, she's been great. The settling sessions have been helpful for her to get to know everyone. I have noticed that she's got used to this place now and she enjoys coming.

Review from Brandon W (Father of Child) published on 5 April 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Excellent staff who are very caring, well organised and competent. Daily sheets are always completed and inform us of toilet habits, food consumption and what activities have been completed. The rooms are bright, light and pleasant which created a wonderful learning environment. Displays are personalised
for the children in the room and often used for learning.
The intercom promotes a high level of safety but frequently the buzzer In the ladybird room doesn't appear to work. There have been a few issues with the fingerprint system.
The intercom outside is very quiet which can be hard to hear.

Review from Suna T (Mother of Child) published on 22 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Happy Tots Nursery when she was 8 months old. She is now 3.5 years and attending the pre-school room. From day one she has enjoyed going to the nursery because staff are caring and dedicated. She thrives there. My husband and I place great trust in the nursery nurses and management
and have never been disappointed in all these years.


Staff have excellent communication and teaching skills, are genuine and compassionate, go the extra mile to support children in their development. For us, as parents, it is very reassuring to know that our daughter is so well looked after and having fun learning and playing, whilst we are at work. We are both health professionals and work with children and families ourselves - we could not be happier with the care provided at Happy Tots Nursery, the learning experiences for children are diverse (imaginary, sensory, educational) and staff work well with the parents in the best interest of each child. A very safe and nurturing place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been here for 6 months now, he has settled really well and loves going to 'school' now. The staff are so wonderful with him, you can see how much they love the children. The nursery is lovely and bright, clean and happy. I would really recommend Happy Tots to anyone, they let my son do extra
induction sessions as he took time to seperate from me, he has built good relationships with the children and the girls (staff).

My daughter is in the pre-school she learns a lot everyday. She loves her teachers and friends and loves gong to nursery which makes it easier for me to work. She has lots of friends at Happy Tots and the staff are lovely, I would highly recommend the nursery for children and parents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This place has been a dream from start to finish. The staff at Happy Tots have helped our daughter so much. They are kind, caring, communicative and my daughter loves spending time there. In particular, a special thanks to the staff in the Ladybird room, one of whom my daughter really took a shine
to. Had we not relocated to a different part of the city, we would have kept our daughter here. We received daily bulletins of what she had to eat etc and had termly updates of her progress. We felt so comfortable having her there.
There was also a 10% discount as we were both teachers, which was very good and as we only required the service term time, the management at Happy Tots kindly allowed us to pay pro rata. This is one of many, many examples of their flexibility, kindness and care. We (and especially our daughter) will miss you very much. Thanks for looking after our little one.

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.
