Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Yate

I can't thank the team enough for everything they do. Their dedication, compassion, and hard work truly shine through every day. I would highly recommend Happy Days Nursery

My son was born with additional needs and he also has anxiety from being in hospital multiple times. Happy Days Manager and two members of staff in particular have been incredible in supporting him from 9 months old. He is now 2 and thriving. They have supported his emotional wellbeing aswell throughout aswell as his drinking and eating. He has grown in confidence and they look after him so well. My daughter also attended from 2-4 and they were fantastic. I would always recommend this nursery.

Happy Days is a truly excellent nursery. We took up a space for my eldest a few months after the Yate branch opened, and I was stunned with just how brilliant both the building and settling in arrangements were. Everything is purpose built, the staff are wonderful, and the entire nursery feels as if it's truly designed with the child in mind.

We had been with two other nurseries in the area with my eldest, but they just don't compare. It's nice to drop off your child and have 0 worries that they are having a good time, that they are safe and being well looked after. The communication has only improved since we've been there too. My youngest is now in the baby room, she has an excellent key worker but all the staff have made effort to create a bond with her. She has a milk allergy too, and they have been so supportive in working with us as she moves up the allergy ladder. I am just so grateful we have access to such an excellent setting.

We have found Happy Days Yate, to have been wonderful care givers to our child. They have helped grow our child's confidence and brought his learning to life through play and activities which are always well thought out. Our child loves his time at nursery and it's thanks to the amazing team at Happy Days Yate.

My daughter has excelled in her learning and growth since joining Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School. Amazing staff feedback that is very detailed with all grounds covered. Love everything my daughter experiences here.

The staff is incredibly caring and attentive, always prioritising the well-being and development of the children. The curriculum is engaging and well-rounded, incorporating a mix of play-based learning and structured activities that keep the kids excited and curious. My child has shown so much progress in both social skills and cognitive development since starting here. The facilities are clean, safe, and equipped with a variety of resources that encourage exploration and creativity. My son especially loves the outdoor play area, which offers plenty of space for the children to run and play. Communication with parents is excellent, with regular updates on daily activities and developmental milestones. I appreciate how involved the staff is in fostering a nurturing environment.

Overall, we really love this nursery and it's a fantastic fit for our son and family.

Our daughter has been at Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Yate for 3 days a week since April last year. I have nothing bad to say about the place, the staff are all super friendly and helpful, they really helped our daughter to settle in and now she really seems to enjoy her days at nursery. The facilities and activities they do with her have helped her development and she even naps better at home as a result of being at nursery. Overall, I'm really glad that we chose happy days over other nurseries in the area.

I wish they did half days but understand their reasons for not implementing them yet. I've now added another day in for my son as I know it will help him get ready for the transition for school.

Overall we really like the nursery and we are very pleased with it so far. All the staff and management know our child by name and interact with her, I feel welcomed every time we arrive and leave. I am comfortable asking questions to different staff members. We may be the lucky ones but we've only had one bump of the head in 6 months so we feel our daughter is safe and well looked after. Her skills are improving vastly which we know is a lot down to the skills she's learning being around other children and being taught day to day.

I think communication could be improved a more frequent news letter would be nice and key dates like picture day being made aware of. Maybe a few more take homes like Christmas cards and holiday celebrations would be nice.

We find the members of staff very good it feels like although our daughter has a key worker a number of staff are comfortable and she is very happy to be with them if the her key workers not around. Overall 9/10

I am so happy with my experience and my child's experience, at Happy Days Nursery school. I cannot rate them high enough. The staff are all really lovely and always go over and above in everything they do.

Happy Days Nursery in Yate is such an amazing nursery and I would love to recommend it to other parents. After viewing a few nurseries about 6 months ago I realised how superior happy days Yate was. The settling-in process is built around the child and makes them feel secure and happy about attending. They do not make you feel rushed to start. The practitioners are open and honest and send updates through the app. We also get photos often. My son has been with them for 6 months now and not only does he love it, but he is also learning new things every day.

Choosing Happy Days Yate was the best decision ever!

My 1 year old attends Happy Days 3 days a week and the standard of care, quality of employee and facilities are of an exceptionally high standard. Other nurseries should be looking at Happy Days as the standard to aim for and certainly nothing in the area comes close to what they provide. For a nursery not long established they should all be incredibly proud of what they have achieved!

My baby just turned 1 and been going to nursery twice a week for the past 3 months. It comes easy for me to say that I am so incredibly glad we chose this nursery. The settling sessions were well structured allowing him to not be scared of being left. The staff are super loving and attentive to the children's needs, they always find instructive and innovative ways to keep them entertained and they never lack attention towards them. The meals are great and the babies are always well looked after. My baby is absolutely thriving ever since going to nursery so much so that we have decided to increase the nursery days to three per week in a few months. The teachers always encourage and support his interests and he always comes home with a new skill. His relationship with the teachers and his key person is impressive and they are very well bonded. My baby is always happy and excited to be at nursery and immediately waves bye bye with a big smile. I couldn't be any happier.

Our son joined Happy Days in June and he loves going in. He gets to experience so many different things to play with and the variety of food is great for weaning. All the staff are really great and communicative.

Activities are set up each day and planned for around their interests and developmental needs - thank you to two and the whole team for everything!

They are very helpful when my husband, who has a disability drops her off, often help with the door etc, very personal service.

I have been really impressed with this nursery to date. My 3-year-old has been attending for 4 months and is loving it. The settling period meant that it was a smooth transition for him. The staff and facilities are great and his development is going from strength to strength. I have no regrets about moving to this nursery.

He's always really happy to go to nursery, and there is so much messy play for him to get into. On the weekend when we are going pit, he will often grab his nursery bag and ask to go in.
