Overall very happy with the care/education my daughter is receiving. Staff are friendly and attentive. Families are good and activities seem varied. Would like more updates on app, meal times and amount/what food she has.

Review from Shona S (Mother of Child) published on 11 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has attended this nursery since she was 8 months old, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better start for her. The staff are caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children's development and wellbeing.

She has grown so much in confidence, social skills, and independence during her time here, and it's been lovely to see how excited she is to go in each day. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel reassured knowing she is in such a safe and nurturing environment.

We are incredibly grateful to the whole team for the love and support they have given our daughter over the years. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a warm, supportive place for their child to learn and grow.

Review from Gemma J (Mother of Child) published on 8 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Moving Teddy to a new nursery felt like a big step for us, and we were naturally anxious about how he'd settle. From the very beginning, Happy Days Nursery completely put us at ease. The biggest strength is the staff-they are genuinely warm, friendly and deeply caring. Abbie, Htar and Shelley, who work closely with Teddy, have been absolutely wonderful. They've taken the time to get to know him as an individual, and it's clear how much they care. Seeing Teddy so happy and comfortable has been incredibly reassuring.

We've also been really impressed with the leadership from Faith and Shai. The nursery is well organised, and communication is always clear, timely and helpful. It feels like a setting where everything is thoughtfully run, without losing that personal touch.

Overall, we couldn't be happier. Teddy has settled so well, and that's entirely down to the nurturing environment the team has created.

All the nursery staff are polite, warm and friendly. Our daughters key worker and other room leaders are great at keeping us informed throughout the day with photos and updates.

There always seems to be lots of activities set up for the kids to do, providing lots of stimulation and fun. Our daughter seems to love it there!

Review from Jade M (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
We have found our experience to be amazing. The staff focus on providing individualised fun care for the children. The children are always encouraged to play outside, read boos and do crafts. My little boy comes home and tells me all the lovely things the staff have said to him during the day, and it melts my heart.

We have needed a lot of admin support and had questions, they are always helpful and accommodating.

Review from H B (Mother of Child) published on 26 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter loves nursery and has settled in really well (she has just been there a year). Lots of settling time really made us feel less anxious about leaving her.
There's not a big outside area especially for the smaller ones but they seem to make the most of what they have with lots of outside time.
They are always doing crafting activities and we get a lot of artwork to display!

We had a switch of key workers due to ours leaving but this was all handled really well. And my little one really loves who she has now! Always feel like we are updated with what she is up to and we have been thoroughly supported through an audiology and hearing loss assessment.

Overall Experience

The staff have always been so honest, engaging and interested in my daughter's development and experience at the nursery. My daughter has developed strong and healthy relationships with the key workers and often speaks highly of them. Although management has changed since my daughter started there 3 years ago, new management have continued the caring ethos the nursery has.

Review from S H (Mother of Child) published on 15 September 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our child's key person is fantastic, and our child is always excited to see her and other staff members. The nursery is friendly and welcoming, and we feel our child is well looked after. The outdoor space is a bit limited (no real grass or vegetation) and our child has only been on one activity our of the nursery in the year they have been there. Some of the toys seem a bit dirty, and the floor too, but we appreciate that it is hard to keep things clean with small children. Security could be better, as at busy times we think anyone could walk in. Our child has learnt a lot at nursery, and the educational and creative activities offered are great.

We've had a really positive experience with the nursery. All the staff are really friendly and have made a real effort to get to know our daughter. She always has a great day and has made so many friends there.
The app is great for communicating but I've also always been able to talk to someone at drop off/pick up or call during the day

Recently they were able to fit her in on an extra day when we needed which was super helpful

Overall Experience
Happy Days Cheswick is a fantastic nursery and my son has thrived since being in their care. They have managed to really bring him out of his shell which has been really lovely to see.
The staff are all very welcoming and you can clearly see that they care for each and every child in the nursery.

Management and the SENCO have always been very supportive with our child's speech and language development and I cannot thank them enough.

Review from D B (Father of Child) published on 7 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The children enjoy their time at Happy Days and the in-room staff work really well with them. The facilities are really good, great to have a purpose built facility with all they could need.

Cost wise, beware of frequent price increases and excessive consumables charges. We live in a time of inflation but it feels like they are taking advantage of the shortage of local nursery places and difficulty in moving. Management staff have little knowledge or empathy which makes it more frustrating. This seems to be an industry problem but they should do better.

We visited a few nurseries and settled on Cheswick Happy Days. I am glad that we did as the staff are very friendly, they all know and care about our child. We enjoy seeing the updates of our child enjoying their day at nursery while we are at work. They also offer extended hours for drop off and pick up.

Such a lovely nursery with amazing staff. Although I'm not there during the day with him, I get a sense he really enjoys nursery and the time he spends there. The staff is so nice, always taking the time to do comprehensive handovers at pick up and they don't rush you. They follow your routines and requests, which is amazing.

In my opinion, this nursery is very safe and clean, the teachers' communication with the children is good, and most importantly, my child feels good there, but I think the education part should be more.

My son has been attending this nursery for just over a year and loves it here. It's safe, clean, happy and a lovely environment. All the staff are brilliant and my son comes home happy after every session. They do great food and have a lovely garden. I know my son is in good hands when here. He has excelled since starting here and improved in confidence and speech.

Very happy with our experience so far. Staff are positive, friendly, caring and informative. The atmosphere is very good and our child is very happy there. We are kept up to date with how he is getting on via an app and telephone calls so the communication is also good. There seems to be plenty of activities for him to do and he has developed really well so far under the care/supervision of Happy Days.
