September 7, 2024 at 7:53 amThe settling-in period was managed truly thoughtfully. The key workers are all outstanding and my daughter loves going here. We are so cheerful with the care and enjoyable they provide. Thanks, Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green! Remarkable childcare centre.

September 20, 2024 at 4:55 pmIn my opinion, the level of care they provide is second to none. You can tell each and every member of team genuinely truly care for the kids like they were their own. You are given a written account daily of activities your kid has done as well as what they have eaten along with how much. The food menu is also incredible, so I know my daughter never goes hungry whilst there. Nothing is too much for the team and their compassion reflects in the kids’s happiness at the end of the day. My daughter has loved her time at Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green.

October 9, 2024 at 1:49 pmThe childcare centre made him so welcome on his visits and when he started his three full days a week. The adventurer’s team are so accommodating to my son through his transition and he is happier than ever. He settled truly quickly and made loads of new friends and even bonded with all the team in both adventurer’s rooms. He comes home all the time talking about childcare centre. If we visit over by the childcare centre his face lights up and he says “my childcare centre”. My son moved to this childcare centre as it was easier for me and his dad for work.

November 4, 2024 at 12:47 pmIt has been quite possibly the best decision we ever made.
The childcare centre is new, fresh and has a social conscience (almost all wood toys, plastic kept to a minimum). The carers are expert and passionate about what they do and you can tell they truly know the kids well as individuals. Their enthusiasm is visible in the diversity of activities the kids are involved with. For example his first week they turned the childcare centre into a space station! The journeys home are regularly filled with stories of arts and crafts, books and songs. Our son loves childcare centre and has flourished at Cheerful Days socially, physically and academically.
A fantastic variety of food is prepared onsite by chef, our son eats almost everything and it’s a daily battle to compete at home!
The attentive and approachable office team complete what is a truly incredible team.
I cannot suggest Cheerful Days Lyde Green highly enough. We took the highly difficult decision to move our son from another setting to Cheerful Days Lyde Green.

November 7, 2024 at 9:57 pmThey have supported us fantastically right from the initial transition and continue to be incredible.
My kid is consistently greeted with big smiles and open arms each morning, the team consistently make him sense welcome and excitedly encourage him into childcare centre. This makes mornings so much easier and happier for both me and my kid.
As a parent, it is invaluable to sense confident and trusting of the team attentive for your kid. The childcare centre has gone above and beyond in supporting our family and care so much about kids’s well-being. The manager is exceptional and cares deeply about ensuring kids and families are cheerful and thriving.
The activities provided are exciting, engaging and creative! The team go the extra mile with providing remarkable experiences for the kids! Including local walks!
A excellent space for kids to explore, make friendships and thrive with the care of a exceptional, compassionate and attentive team!
Thank you so much! I have been blown away by the childcare centre.

December 6, 2024 at 2:22 pmMy son consistently comes out cheerful and says he’s had a excellent day. The outdoor area has lots of playtime equipment to playtime with and a large open space. We have never had any issues and most importantly my son settled in quickly and consistently cheerful to go back. A truly lovely childcare centre, welcoming team who are also so welcoming.

December 17, 2024 at 10:21 pmThe room settings are highly cosy with lovely educational toys and outside playtime area. Even though we are still at the highly beginning of our childcare centre journey, my little one already feels highly comfortable around the nurses, and they even managed to put him down for decent amount of sleep. My 1 year old recently started childcare centre and the team was exceptionally welcoming and lovely throughout the settling in period.
Arden Parker
December 19, 2024 at 11:06 pmI was anxious about how she would be and if she would like it but the team were excellent, put my mind at ease and made my daughter highly welcome. She is so excited to go to childcare centre now she beams every day when she is going in and has a big smile when she sees the team. I also appreciate how thorough they are with letting me know what she has done that day, what she ate, activities she enjoyed etc! My daughter has been going to the childcare centre for a few months now, she has settled in so well!

January 12, 2025 at 10:35 amShe settled there highly quickly and absolutely loves going. The team have consistently been so supportive and positive, and take real trouble to do enjoyable, interactive and creative activities with the kids. The rooms are highly spotless, with lots of space for the kids to playtime. My daughter has been highly cheerful here and loves the team. Our daughter has been so cheerful at Cheerful Days (Lyde Green) since she joined in September when she was 10 months.

March 12, 2025 at 11:41 amI am so so pleased with everything, the team are excellent, truly supportive and my daughter is truly cheerful here. I am also truly pleased that the food they are offering is healthy which was truly important to me, no junk or processed foods. Keep up the great work. I could not ask for more.
Carter Hayden
March 24, 2025 at 11:40 amShe has been attending since the age of 9 months, now at just 2 she looks forward to going to childcare centre, the setting is secure, educating and loving for her. All the things I could wish for whilst I am at work and she is in kid care. I cannot fault the professionalism and friendliness of the team.
Both my kids have attended cheerful days, my son and daughter, my son attended a different setting prior to cheerful days, often he was unsettled and unwilling to attend. Once he started cheerful days he was such a different kid, confident and cheerful, I have no regrets taking him out of his first childcare centre and placing him with cheerful days, he flourished heaps and loved every moment at cheerful days. My daughter has such a special relationship with the fantastic team at Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green.

April 3, 2025 at 2:29 amHe has thoroughly enjoyed his time there and is just beginning the transition to the school programme. He has a excellent relationship with his key worker and all the adults he sees. His favourite part is their outside space, forest school and the water tray. He has learnt so much in the last 2 years, we couldn’t be happier with the care and assistance he has received. My kid has attended Cheerful Days at Lyde Green for the last 2 years.
Carter Blair
April 6, 2025 at 5:33 amSince joining the childcare centre we have seen her grow to be a cheerful, outgoing, compassionate girl. She has recently moved up a room and has settled in truly well. This has been largely down to the assistance from the fantastic team. My daughter loves going to Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green.
Indigo Quinn
April 7, 2025 at 1:39 amShe settled in highly quickly and absolutely loves her time there. She has made new friends and loves seeing them. The team are remarkable, nothing is ever too much trouble and they are consistently willing to help. I would definitely suggest Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Preschool – Lyde Green. It’s such a lovely childcare centre. Our daughter started at Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green last year.
Harper Underwood
April 8, 2025 at 4:55 pmI have every self‑assurance when I leave my kid for the day that they are going to have so much enjoyable! The food is varied and all freshly cooked which I adore. Definitely a 10/10 from me! All the team at Cheerful Days are incredible, they are so attentive and all show such adore towards childcare.
Reese Parker
April 20, 2025 at 6:17 amEveryone has been fantastic in their approach, not only to my daughter but also myself and my husband. The feedback that we receive daily is lovely, and team are consistently exceptionally positive. Would suggest to anyone looking for a childcare centre that will care for their kid and enable them to flourish. My daughter started at Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green in October and has settled in amazingly thanks to the remarkable team.
Billie Knight
April 25, 2025 at 7:44 pmHe talks about his friends and about what he has done all the way home. He is so cheerful at Cheerful Days and looks forward to going when he wakes up in the morning!
My youngest at 9 months old started in April and it is like he has been going much longer. He is so content there.
The childcare centre team consistently wear a smile and the handover of the day is consistently so lovely to hear. They have consistently done so much, and often come back filthy! Which is excellent! Makes me cheerful that they are so cheerful. Upon moving my eldest kid from another childcare centre setting he has become more confident in everything he does.
Robin Delaney
June 12, 2025 at 9:44 amThey are welcoming, well‑informed, attentive and have handled the pandemic brilliantly. Thank you all! Dropping your kid off to any childcare centre for the first time is understandably an journey filled with emotion and anxiety, however, the remarkable team at Cheerful Days made this journey a nice one.
Arden Ferguson
June 25, 2025 at 3:46 amThe kids in Explorers seemed cheerful, the team were welcoming and engaged and the facilities are excellent!
She has now been there for 4 months and she loves it! We get daily updates on her sleep, nappy changes, food and activities. We have already had a long phone call from her key person about her development in childcare centre and how they are working on areas of her development.
It’s so lovely to see her becoming more confident, the team are so lovely and they get her to go to sleep for naps (which is a miracle)!
The kids get plenty of outside time if they want and the toys and games are truly thoughtful and allow lots of open-ended playtime. As with many other parents, we were nervous about our daughter starting childcare centre at a year old as she had spent most of her life in lockdown!
I was able to visit the childcare centre and stay for a 1-hour settling in session and it put my mind at ease.

July 9, 2025 at 12:33 amAll the team are exceptionally welcoming, welcoming and supportive. My son absolutely loves going to Cheerful Days! It’s truly brought him out of himself! He loves all the team members, especially his key worker! All the team do a excellent job and would highly suggest Cheerful Days! Highly suggest Cheerful Days Childcare centre & Pre-School – Lyde Green!
