Review from Holly M (Mother of Child) published on 20 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I honestly couldn't recommend Happy Days Bradley Stoke enough. The care, attention and effort the staff put into everything they do is amazing.
The activities they plan are fantastic and really support the children's development in such a fun and engaging way. There's always a great variety of things for them to do, and it's lovely seeing how much my daughter is learning and growing.
The meals they provide are also brilliant, with a great variety that keeps things interesting and ensures the children are eating well.
Most importantly, the staff are absolutely wonderful. They are so kind, caring and attentive, and it's clear how much they genuinely care about every child there.
My daughter comes home happy every single time she attends, which says everything. It's such a reassuring feeling as a parent knowing she's in such a safe, supportive and nurturing environment.

Overall, an amazing nursery and I'm so grateful for everything they do.

Review from Jemma S (Mother of Child) published on 26 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We just wanted to share how incredibly happy we are with our son's nursery experience. He has settled in beautifully and genuinely looks forward to coming each day. As parents, we've been so impressed with the whole setting - it's the little things that make such a difference, like being greeted with a smile and hearing a friendly hello from every member of staff, even those who don't work directly with us.
We've seen such amazing changes in our son since he started. He's trying new words every day, has begun signing things like "more," and is constantly singing the songs he's learned. We've also noticed how nicely he now sits at the table to eat. It's clear that nursery has played a huge part in his development, and we're so grateful for the care, encouragement, and kindness he receives from the whole team.

Thank you all so much for everything you do - it really shows!

Overall Experience

I was worried about my daughter starting nursery as she had only been with myself form when she was born but she has settled in really well and I think that is all down to the staff in her room. She has built strong relationships with every member of staff and you can clearly see how much they care about the children in their care. The communication home about how her day has gone and if they need anything from me is fabulous. The management are very welcoming on arrival always greeting myself and my daughter with a big smile and making conversation. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience
5 stars isn't enough
Happy Days is hands down the gold standard of nurseries. We couldn't have asked for better.
Two particular teachers and the whole baby room team completely eased our fears as first-time parents. They gave our boy so much care, fun and support - we saw him grow in confidence every week.
Big shout out to the manager and the admin team too - everything ran smoothly and communication was always kind and clear. You lot made a potentially stressful time feel really easy.
If we could have stayed, we would have. We'll be recommending you to every expecting parent we know in North Bristol.

Thank you for being such a special part of our journey.

Review from Daniel C (Father of Child) published on 18 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter started at Happy Days back in May, we could not be happier with how well she settled and how she's been getting on.
We've noticed major improvements in her confidence and communication since she joined, and when we saw recently that Happy Days had achieved Outstanding in their Ofsted report, we were impressed (but not surprised).
As a former teacher, I understand achieving Outstanding is VERY difficult to do, and this speaks of the incredibly high standards HD has in terms of the staff, facilities and the support offered to families, too.
We feel lucky to have our daughter attend a nursery that makes her feel so safe and supported, and one that recognises her individual interests and personality, and lets her explore both in a fun and engaging way.

Other honorable mentions: the app is amazing, giving updates through the day. The location is spotlessly clean, has great safeguarding policies, lots of activities for the kids and fantastic staff across the board.

Overall Experience

Great nursery with lovely staff who are always friendly, professional and supportive. My son has grown in confidence since attending. They supported brilliantly with potty training and he learns something new everyday. They have a lending library where he picks a book to bring home and this has helped support his love of reading and language development. Amazing nursery and team.

Honestly the best nursery, I am so glad I made the decision to choose this nursery. Firstly the staff are amazing, they go above and beyond everyday I see them. They are so friendly and approachable. My daughter settled so quickly and they made me feel so reassured they she was safe and cared for outstandingly. Secondly the nursery itself is so clean and tidy and resources seem very age appropriate.

I can't praise the nursery enough. I know that when I leave my daughter for the day she's going to be safe and well cared for. The smiles when I pick up prove she's had a lovely day. I would recommend to anybody looking for a nursery.

My daughter has attended Happy Days for the last 3 years and loves it there. I can't compliment the staff highly enough, they work so hard to help my daughter be secure and confident. It gives me peace of mind to know that she is somewhere safe, where she is happy and enjoying a range of activities.

Overall Experience

I had my daughter at Happy Days and they helped so much with her confidence and were a big part of the beautiful girl she is now. They supported her emotionally through a very sensitive time and was a happy safe space. Now I have my little bot there, my wild child, and in just a few short weeks he has settled really well, built up lovely relationships with the staff and has become a kind, happy boy who is excited to go to nursery. Both my children had speech delays and the nursery has really helped grow their vocabulary. I wouldn't have my children at any other nursery. They are all simply amazing.

Reply from Rebekah Fice-Thomson, Marketing Manager at Happy Days Nursery & Preschool - Bradley Stoke

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad to hear how both your children have flourished with us, from supporting your daughter through a sensitive time to helping your son settle and grow. It's wonderful to know we've contributed to their development, especially with their speech. Your kind words mean a lot, and we're honoured to be part of their journey!

Overall Experience

We feel very privileged to have our son looked after by the incredible staff at this nursery. Since his first settle in session (which were robust and a great way to ease both him and us into the new routine!), his key worker and other staff in the room have been attentive and kind. They have worked hard to get to know our boy and have supported him in becoming more confident and curious about the world around him.

Overall Experience

I cannot thank Happy Days Bradley Stoke enough. The confidence that my daughter has gained since coming to the Nursery is a joy to see. She goes into Nursery with a smile on her face each morning (despite the early start!) and more importantly, comes out beaming at the end of each day, excited to tell us all about the amazing day she has had. The staff are outstanding and have made us all feel so welcome and part of the Happy Days Family. I really could not ask for anything more. The fact that all of the staff, not only those who are in her room, know who my daughter is, tells you everything you need to know about how much everyone there puts in to being there, and everyone seems to genuinely enjoy what they do. Thank you for everything!
