Review from Natalie T (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started at happy days in January. We are more than impressed. From the warm and friendly welcome at reception to the staff directly looking after my son. Everyone genuinely seems to care.
My son really enjoys himself and is Happy to be going to ‘Happy days’. The staff have done a fab job at welcoming and settling him in.
The room and nursery itself are always clean and tidy, with lots of toys and a great outdoor space for the children to explore. My son particularly loves the outdoor area.
I feel it’s been the best decision placing my son here and always look forward to hearing about all the fun he has had.

Keep up the good work Bradley Stoke happy days!!

Overall Experience

My daughter started with Happy Days Bradley Stoke as she turned one. I continue to be incredibly impressed with the standard of care and attention she receives, a huge relief when you're returning to work and need to focus without worrying. My daughter is incredibly lucky not only to have a fantastic key worker, but also that everyone working there knows her name (and the name of my eldest who is with me when we collect her!). Any changes to her routine (naps/food), likes and dislikes are noted and actioned as if I were there, in effect she has a mum/many mums away from me, I couldn't ask for a better place for her to be.

We are very fortunate to have Happy Days on our doorstep and I know it'll be a sad day when my daughter comes to leave for infant school! I know what she has done, what she has eaten, how many nappies she's been through and what time, and all naps in a daily report given to me when I pick her up. Wonderful place, wonderful people - thank you!

Overall Experience

What a fantastic nursery and an exceptional team of people. Our daughter has been attending the nursery for the last 18 months and during this time we could not be happier with the care that has been provided for our little girl. She really is thriving. The staff all seem to genuinely care about her, which is a great comfort when you have to rely on other people to look after your child at times. We have never had any concerns about leaving her there and she is always happy when we pick her up. She is particularly chatty and has lots to say about the brilliant activities that she has done that day. Our son will also be attending the nursery in the near future when I return to work. My husband and I would recommend this nursery to anyone without hesitation.

Review from Abby S (Mother of Child) published on 22 May 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am so glad I enrolled my twins with Happy Days Nursery. They have both settled in quickly and are so happy there. The staff are always welcoming and friendly. Already in the short space of time that my twins have been attending nursery, they have both developed so much by being allowed to explore and experience all different sorts of new adventures. The food they provide is always varied and healthy along with the odd treat for birthdays and special occasions. I love the review form that is sent home with them after each session so I can read all about what they have been up too and I am really looking forward to our first parents evening in a few weeks. I just wish I could afford for them to attend more days than they do.

Review from Rich M (Father of Child) published on 30 September 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

After looking at several nurseries in the Bristol area and not being inspired walking into Happy Days at Bradley Stoke was like a breath of fresh air. All of the staff are friendly, very welcoming, professional and clearly love what they do. We wanted to find a nursery where our son would not only have fun but also experience new things and learn each day, we certainly have found this here. I can't recommend Happy Days at Bradley Stoke high enough.

Overall Experience

From the first time we visited to today we have not had anything bad to say about this nursery. The care he receives is outstanding. He receives a lot of care and affection and is always happy to go. The food is home cooked, fresh and a big variety. The activities are always interesting, varied and age related. The staff and management are always happy to talk and answer questions and provide daily feedback. I would highly recommend Happy Days.

Review from Jo B (Mother of Child) published on 22 April 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little boy started at Happy Days Bradley Stoke when he was 10 months old, I looked around several nurseries and knew that this nursery was the right one - he did initially start at another nursery - however due to problems that occurred with his settling in sessions I decided that nursery wasn't for him! Bradley Stoke is wonderful, the staff are lovely and I really like the bond my son has built with his key worker despite him only going in one day a week.
They do lot's of nice activities with the children, I especially like receiving things he has made throughout the day - the garden is also a lovely area for little ones to explore.
When I pick him up he always seems bright, chatty and happy! :-)

I hope in the meanwhile the other nursery have had additional training to ensure their nursery standards match Bradley Stoke!

Review from Michelle H (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter loves her time at nursery. She started at 17 months and despite struggling with being separated form me at first, the staff were great at reassuring and supporting both of us. She settled in really quickly due to the efforts of the Happy days team. She now loves it! Christmas was a very exciting affair, it was lovely to have so many gifts bought home! Her speech and socialisation skills have really come on as an only child she now thoroughly enjoys the company of other children. I have nothing but high praise for the staff at Happy Days who are warm and welcoming. When I pick up and drop off. Have already recommended to other friends.

Overall Experience

Very happy with the decision we made to change my daughter's nursery. The staff at Happy Days are very good, committed and friendly. The management is doing a very good work of running the nursery in an orderly manner. The premises are always clean and the children are given all the attention they need. I can see the changes in my daughter already. Their interests are re taken into account by activities are developed considering each individual child. Hope to see Happy Days keeping up with the good work by commitment in future.
