Admissions
We’re delighted that you’re considering Happy Tots Playgroup for your child.
As a long-established, family-run playgroup, places are limited and in high demand. Our admissions process is designed to be simple, personal and focused on getting to know each family.
👶 Age Requirements
Children can join Happy Tots from:
👉 2 years and 10 months old
Our programme is designed to support children at this important stage, helping them build confidence, independence and social skills as they prepare for Nursery school.
📅 When Registration Opens
We offer places at key points throughout the year, with registration opening in:
- September
- November
- January
These intake periods allow us to welcome new children in a structured and supportive way.
🔗 How the Process Works
Happy Tots operates a private enrolment process.
Rather than open public booking, parents are invited to register via a private link, which is shared directly after initial contact.
The process is simple:
- Get in touch with us
- We’ll provide more information and answer any questions
- You’ll be invited to register when places become available
💬 Get in Touch
If you’re interested in a place for your child, we’d love to hear from you.
Getting in touch early is the best way to ensure you’re considered for upcoming registration periods.
💷 Childcare Vouchers
We accept NICSS childcare vouchers, helping support families with childcare costs.
💛 A Personal Approach
We understand that choosing a playgroup is a big decision.
That’s why we take a personal approach to admissions – giving parents the opportunity to ask questions, get to know us and feel confident that Happy Tots is the right fit for their child.
