30 April 2025
I am delighted with the choice of nursery for both of my children, they are stimulated, well-fed and most importantly have a brilliant environment to flourish. Staff are nurturing, caring and friendly and I regularly receive updates/photos via app which is reassuring. Key workers are brilliant and communication has been great from day one. Settle session have been reassuring and they couldn't be more smooth. Management is available and they do listen. It is honestly a wonderful place for my little ones to grow and develop!

From the moment we brought our little one to Happy Days, we felt calm and confident in the care he was receiving. From his initial settling in sessions to his current stage, we've been given regular, informative feedback with a clear breakdown of his food, sleep and other activities. They have always been responsive to all of our questions (which is a few being first time parents) The staff are incredibly caring and patient, they have supported our son through his development and have been incredibly supportive with accommodating our requests due to work commitments. All of the staff are very friendly and treat our son as one of the Happy Days family giving him big smiles and cuddles at any opportunity. Even with some of the difficulties of illnesses, irregular sleep and dietary requirements, the team at Happy Days have always been supportive and done their best to keep our little man thriving and happy.

I collect my granddaughter from happy days ones a week and I am always greeted with such happy faces and see her playing happily with the other children. Although my daughter gets information about her day on the app, the girls in her room will always give me verbal updates about how she has been. Couldn't recommend more.

Since joining in November, our little girl loves coming into nursery to see all of her friends! Happy days have made her feel very welcome and we feel content knowing our little girl is safe and happy in a thriving environment! Our little one doesn't even turn back to say goodbye anymore, she comes straight in to see her friends and get stuck into the resources. We feel very lucky to have found a fit that is right for us and our little girl!

Very good nursery and lovely staff. My daughter is still settling into her new room but seems to be getting on really well. Receive regular updates by an app throughout the day so I always know how she is getting on and what she has had to eat during the day.

All staff have been amazing in supporting both my little ones settle into the nursery. All questions and worries have been answered and reassured. The staff are brilliant in supporting the needs and interests of my children. Brilliant start to our Happy Days Nursery.

Despite this nursery not being my first choice for my little boy, who started nursery when I went back to work after 12 months, I have been beyond impressed by just how well he's settled in there - and that's all down to the people who welcome us in every morning! When I made my initial enquiry, management were fantastic at answering all of my questions and concerns related to tales I'd heard of staff shortages (under former management) and they were more than accommodating, inviting me to come and look around, for 'stay and play' sessions to see how things were done - and they were only a call away if I needed any further reassurance. I was understandably nervous leaving him in any childcare setting, but his key worker, the supervisor, management and all of the staff at Happy Days have been amazing - week in, week out. They always seem to do new, fun activities to nurture his development and I've seen him come on massively since he's started. I'm really happy with the service so far.

I'd like to praise the staff from the management down. My step son always comes home happy and clean. The environment there is always pleasant and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Always happy to answer questions you ask to the best of their ability. A place I'd highly recommend if you want to be reassured your children are in safe hands.

Since our daughter started at Happy Days Nursery, Thornbury at 8 months. She has noticeably thrived and flourished under the care of the staff there. It's a tough transition for anyone, but we were supported and encouraged the whole way. The staff clearly tailor their care to each individual child, and I'm so grateful we have a space where my daughter is genuinely excited to go in the morning. Special thanks to one member of staff in particular as a key worker, one of my child's favourite people ever!

My granddaughter has learnt so much since being at Happy Days Nursery. She has grown in confidence and is very chatty. The staff are amazing and caring. No request it too much and they show my granddaughter so much love. In the year she has been with Happy Days she has become confident, chatty and very outgoing. Management are extremely helpful and are in hand to help with any query whilst offering a warm welcome when you walk through the door. My daughter is so relaxed when dropping off my granddaughter and knows she is safe and secure and learning everything she needs to.

Awesome nursery! Made my son very welcome and he has settled so well. All the nursery workers are lovely and so kind and patient! They always give me a detailed update on his day. The app system also works really well as it puts your mind at ease when you receive the updates.

My child loves her time at Happy Days Thornbury. The staff are always friendly and the staff all form good connections with the children. They have a lot of indoor and outdoor play and organized activities. However, I wish the nursery provided a more realistic food menu. They are very healthy meals but not meals I would personally make for my child so she doesn't end up eating them and they don't have much of an alternative to offer. Altogether though I think the nursery is a nice environment and my child is happy there.

I have been absolutely thrilled with the start my little one has had in Happy Days Thornbury. The staff have been so kind and accommodating from day one. It was such a relief to drop them off today and see them immediately reach for their key person. Going back to work as a first-time mum is really hard but it's made so much easier seeing how contented he is in his environment there.

My daughter started at Happy Days Thornbury in January 2023. She loves it and has started to do settling-in sessions in the next room; they are going well. There have been ups and downs but Happy Days is without doubt on the up. I would definitely recommend.
24 June 2024
My son has been at Happy Days Thornbury for 2 years, he absolutely loves it. He is now in the preschool room and will be doing 4 days a week until school in September 2025. The staff have been amazing in supporting him with his extra needs. Like anywhere, there have been changes with the staff but honestly, the children are so happy. Drop-off and pick-up are always smooth, they also have an app where events are logged throughout the day. I would definitely recommend.

Happy Days Nursery in Thornbury is such a lovely place. My son has been doing settling sessions to get him ready for when he starts. They have been amazing and so helpful with helping him to settle in. I highly recommend Happy Days as it's a lovely environment and has a great bunch of staff.
31 May 2024
Since my son started at Happy Days he has come on leaps and bounds with his speech, identifying colours/shapes and making friendships. I always feel the staff have my son's best interests at heart and I know he is being well cared for. I am notified of any activities he has taken part in and what he particularly enjoyed about his day. If I ever feel worried I can easily talk to the team to voice my concerns and I know that they have been taken on board. He very much enjoys going to Happy Days and as a parent, I can go to work and feel reassured that he will have a great day.

My daughter started nursery in September she loves going to nursery, it has made her much more confident with other children and her speech has improved greatly.

We have been with Happy Days Thornbury for many years now and have referred friends to the nursery as we always felt it was the best one in the area. Recently with the introduction of the app, the staff have gone out of their way to upload photos and videos for us to be able to get a peek into what our children are doing and learning when we're not there. The staff truly make the nursery a warm and engaging place and you can see they care, they go the extra mile without being asked- extra cuddles on an emotional drop-off day, or finding games the children will excel in and be excited to talk about. Thank you to all the Adventurers staff.
