About this price
How the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Happitots is a fantastic nursery. My daughter is almost 5 and has attended since she was a baby. Everyone is caring, helpful and 100% focused on teaching my child. My daughter has grown into a bright and confident little girl and I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

My child has been in Happitots for over one year now and I must say it's been a pleasant journey. Recently she started toilet training and I wasn't too sure if she would get on well in nursery, however, the staff have been very helpful and have helped her toilet train in the nursery which was amazing. Also, they keep all activities she does in the intranet which provides more information on how she is getting on in nursery and what to train her on while at home to help out. Overall, I am very happy with the nursery and its staff. The recent refurbishment has also given the appearance a positive boost and even my child commented on it positively. I won't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone.
My little boy has been going to this nursery for a good few months now and he loved it, used to cry leaving me going to his old one, now he will go in here no bother. He loves all the staff and they are great with the kids.

My daughter loves nursery and I think it's amazing that they learn Spanish at a young age. There has been a couple of times I've had to keep her in with family issues eg., hospital and the manager was very kind. Fantastic nursery and staff.

The staff in the nursery are friendly and helpful, my grandson has really come on since he started attending. The management are more than approachable, you can turn to them for anything. The nursery is very clean and has lots of activities for the children of all ages to take part in. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for the staff if you need to ask anything. He likes the food that is provided and it is always very healthy, he now loves eating fruit.
Happitots Cumbernauld is a brilliant nursery, my daughter has been here since seven months old and wouldn't have her anywhere else - couldn't thank the staff enough for their support and great work!
