  • Happy Chalet Ltd, Stanmore
Happy Chalet is a caring nursery offering a welcoming and engaging environment for children from 3 months to 5 years.

The beautiful calming environments cater to the children providing a learning space to thrive in. Their classrooms are smaller which means they get more opportunities to capture those wow moments, support your child to achieve their targets and the focus is always on the children by doing planned activities and spontaneous activities.

The nursery offers a unique French club and every week, children participate in fun and interactive sessions, immersing them in the beauty of the French language. Through songs, games and age-appropriate activities, they learn French and develop an appreciation for diversity and global languages, enriching their educational experience.

Every moment is a chance to learn and grow.

Happy Chalet strives to create an environment with smaller classrooms to maximise all-round development.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We cannot thank the amazing team at Happy Chalet enough for the incredible care, support, and love they've shown our daughter during her time there. Watching her recently graduate was such an emotional and proud moment for us and it's all thanks to the dedication and thoughtfulness of the staff. The
graduation ceremony was absolutely beautiful. It was well-organised, personal, and filled with so much warmth.
Since joining the nursery, we've seen incredible progress in our daughter's development - socially, emotionally, and academically and we know that's largely due to the time she has spent at Happy Chalet.
The staff are warm, patient, and incredibly supportive. It's a lovely community. It's clear that they genuinely care about each child and are passionate about what they do.
Thank you again to everyone at Happy Chalet for giving our daughter such a strong and joyful start to her early years. We'll always be grateful for the memories and the foundation you've helped build.

We could not be happier with our experience at this home nursery. The environment is bright, impeccably clean and welcoming. Children love it there. The staff are truly amazing with kids, caring, and attentive to each child's needs. The level of care they provide goes above and beyond, making each child
feel valued and supported.
The curriculum is enriching, focusing on a variety of skills. The staff are so creative and children enjoy doing the activities. Highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Wonderful experience at Happy Chalet Nursery! My 4-year-old daughter has been attending Happy Chalet Nursery for several months, and I couldn't be happier with our experience. The range of activities and learning opportunities is impressive. I've noticed my daughter's significant improvement educationally.
The chalet's warm environment has become a second home for my daughter. The staff are incredibly caring which provides peace of mind that my daughter is in good hands. Overall, Happy Chalet is a fantastic place for children to learn and grow. I highly recommend it. Thank you happy Chalet Nursery, for all that you do!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We could not be happier with our experience at Happy Chalet. From the moment we arrived, we felt the friendly, homey atmosphere that sets this nursery apart. The large amount of space available for children to learn and explore is fantastic, giving them the freedom to enjoy their activities fully. The
staff's dedication to providing individual attention ensures every child feels special and cared for.
My daughter had a previous bad experience at a larger nursery, which resulted in her refusing to attend nursery altogether. However, she settled in so quickly here and now looks forward to attending. The nurturing environment and attentive staff have made all the difference and her confidence has grown. I highly recommend Happy Chalet to any parent seeking a warm yet spacious setting where their child can thrive.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Happy Chalet Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 5.000 for Happy Chalet Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (189 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 5
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Happy Chalet Ltd is based on 16 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 31 number of registered child places is 6.2, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
