Good nursery. Try to help my child and be willing to do more to help her with her ASD and other issues. The manager is very kind and helpful and good at listening. Key workers are good and willing to help in any way they can.

My Son enjoys a lot to go to Be Happy Preschool, we have changed to Be Happy recently which warmly welcomed my Child and provides good care and support. He loves going there everyday and missed school during Holidays. Along with that I really appreciate the Management, which has provided us many support,
importantly workshops such as Speech and Language support at home. Appreciate your efforts and expecting same support

I cannot thank the manager and the team enough. They have been so warm and welcoming to my family since day one. My daughter has been incredibly happy in their care and enjoys all their activities and the photo updates have been great.
They are friendly and caring, their kindness shines through.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My niece always has the best time at preschool, on the days I collect her she is always so excited to tell me about her day and what she has been doing with her friends.
The staff are very attentive and ensure the children's needs are always put first, and they have excellent parent partnerships too
with regular contact and updates throughout the week. I can't wait to visit the preschool next term as a volunteer too, especially as I can't wait to see what my niece and her friends get up to for myself!

Be happy preschool is an excellent nursery. My child is doing very well and loves to go in every day. The staff are helpful and caring about the children and their development. The nursery environment is lovely and encourages imagination and development. A variety of options during snack time so my
child gets to try new foods.

Review from Ioana Crina R (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My nephew attended the nursery 3 years ago. He improved a lot on his talking and behaviour. I have mentioned a good communication and dedication from the management and staff. And I decided that will be a great nursery for my son as well.
My son really enjoyed going to nursery. He is very confident
now and he learned lots of good things. His English is much better now.
He is going to school but he told me he will miss all his teachers from nursery, we will definitely go and visit his teachers later.
I want to say thank you, to all the teachers for their time spent with our kids, and for everything they have done for our kids. It was a really huge help for them to develop and grow.

My Son has been attending Be Happy for the past year. The staff are excellent and our son always looks forward to Nursery. We regularly receive text alerts about the activities that have taken place and are able to discuss this with our son.


The communication between us and the Nursery management

is excellent, and we always have effective and prompt responses to any queries.

Very good school and definitely recommended. Their way of communication to parents is very good. My child was crying for the first 3 weeks but now he is used to the school and he also started talking only after going to school. I see lots of difference in him.

My daughter has attended Be Happy preschool for a month now and I can not praise it enough. The day is well structured and staff very caring, kind and mostly enthusiastic which has helped my child settle in.


The manager goes above and beyond with communicating with the parents via emails, newsletters,

and texts and so I always feel a part of what my daughter is doing and very much involved in this community preschool.


We love looking forward to what my child brings home from an activity and what she is learning from each week's themed learning. Overall the staff, the layout and planned activities really make it enjoyable to send my child to this preschool.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.056)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.056) out of 10 for Be Happy Preschool Slough is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.917 for Be Happy Preschool Slough is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.917
  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 3.139 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Be Happy Preschool Slough is based on 1 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 = 3
    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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.2 = 0.139
  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.
