We absolutely love Happy Days Nursery & Preschool - Penair. The manager and the rest of the team are fantastic. My daughter has made so much progress since she started with them - she’s gained so much confidence and her skills with her mobility, puzzle-solving, feeding herself and even going to sleep on her own have all developed so well. It’s lovely to pick her up and see the little changes and improvements she has made during her time at nursery. I love the outdoor space and the way the natural environment is used every day. Our daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and we love sending her there - every member of staff knows every child even if they don’t work with them in their room and the care is really personalised to each child. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Happy Days Penair. Please don’t ever change!
I could not recommend this nursery enough. They made the whole process of dropping off my daughter in very uncertain times, easy- especially as a working mum in the pandemic. I know that she is safe and looked after and is loving the outdoor space, getting dirty with hands-on learning, enjoying nature. After the first 6 week review, it was clear that the staff knew her well and that nowhere would meet her needs as well as the attentive, caring staff at Happy Days Nursery & Preschool - Penair do!
Thank you Lorna, the team really appreciate you taking the time to leave them such a lovely review!
Happy Days Penair have gone above and beyond our expectations with our son! After two quite disastrous experiences at other settings, Happy Days Nursery & Preschool - Penair welcomed our son with open arms and from day one! They have been absolutely amazing with him. Every single staff member has been wonderful and gone the extra mile. One member of staff, in particular, has been a complete godsend with my son's learning and communication and she really is a credit to the nursery. I will be very sad the day I have to move my son to school as he absolutely loves his nursery days and goes in the happiest little boy! I couldn’t have him anywhere else now. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave our Happy Days Penair team with such a great review! We are thrilled to hear that your son is having the best time!
Happy days Penair have been fantastic since the very beginning of my experience with them. We started with baby massage sessions once a week where, as a first time mum, they made me feel welcome in a friendly environment. We now take our son once a week for childcare and he is always happy and well looked after. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for 5-star childcare.
My son has had a wonderful few years at this nursery. He has made good friendships and connects well with the staff. He said to me just this week that when he goes to school he will miss them. We are always kept up to date of any changes, and any issues with invoicing (my doing!) were rectified quickly. It is clear that the staff enjoy working with the children and my son is due to start school a happy and confident boy with many skills that he has been taught while playing at the nursery. It has been invaluable to us as working parents and would not hesitate to recommend.
They have been the best with my little lad! No matter any situation, they have supported us and pushed us in the right direction. I love the layout and my little boy loves the woods and having lots of fun in there.
Happy Days Penair is an excellent nursery and my child has been very happy there. He has enjoyed his time in each of the three rooms (babies, toddlers and pre-school) and the staff have been brilliant throughout. The nursery has excellent outside facilities and the children are outside in the fresh air most of the day. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Happy Days Penair to other parents.
Lovely Nursery with a great team. Both my boys have gone from baby to preschool and loved it. They have a very nice outside space and I like how much time the kids are outside in the woods learning and playing with their friends. As a working Mum, their flexibility has also always been amazing and they really care about their children’s families.
Such a wonderful setting that allows children to explore and enjoy the outdoor environment. My nephew loves going on bug hunts. All rooms are equipped with all age ranges. All staff work well as a team and know all the children throughout the rooms so the transition is easy for the children. I would recommend this nursery to everyone I know, always greeted with a smiley face.
Both of my children have been to Happy Days and both absolutely loved it from start to finish! They are always well organised and have been extremely helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to other parents.
Both of my children went to this nursey, we lived in Redruth but had only heard so many good things. Their outside area sold the nursery for us. All of the staff are friendly and made my children and me feel safe. I never worried if my children had eaten well, as it was all fresh home-cooked meals and a great menu. So many activities done every day that they were there. Overall, would recommend the nursery to anyone.
The nursery has fantastic resources encouraging the children to learn and strive. The woodland area is a great space for different activities. The staff helped support my son settle and was very reassuring. Will definitely be recommending to other parents.
I would not hesitate to recommend Happy Days Nursery & Preschool - Penair to others. My daughter absolutely loves nursery, as did my son previously. There is a lovely outdoor woodland space where my daughter loves running around! All the staff are very friendly and helpful and always interact really well with the children.
Prior to the lockdown, our son was incredibly happy at Happy Days Penair and we were concerned the changes would scare him, we were wrong and he ran into the nursery on his first day back.
He was so happy to see all his friends and the team at Penair, this is a testament to the care he received before lockdown. Following his return he has been settled, happy and content.
We would highly recommend the nursery, the staff are fantastic and we trust them with our child.
Thank you!
My three children love it at Happy Days Penair, the woods allow them to have exploration and freedom outside and the staff are welcoming and caring. The staff have made the transition for all of them as smooth as possible and have built really strong relationships with the children.
My son has settled in extremely quickly; that is due to the welcoming and friendly staff at Happy days. I haven’t left my son's side for 11-months and was extremely anxious leaving him, but I have every faith he is enjoying and he is well looked after at Happy days. I could not be happier with the nursery.
The manager and staff were welcoming, knowledgable and showed warmth to welcoming a young baby to their setting. They were reassuring and supportive to ensure the individual needs of my child were met, and as a parent, I felt confident about the safety and happiness of my baby.
Very personalised approach with a key worker allocated. Good daily feedback and communication on what my child had done during his time in the nursery.
The fantastic outside woodland area with different zones and the baby room is natural and beautifully set out with good activities to support child development.
Would definitely recommend this nursery setting.
I would highly recommend this nursery. They make you feel welcome and reassured from the second you drop off your child and nothing is too much effort. They teach them more than I could teach at home and prepare them for life but most importantly they have so much fun and my children were always smiling!
Our daughter has been at Happy Days Penair since she was eight months old. She is now two and has always loved her nursery days, developing close bonds with staff. She has been supported brilliantly through the crucial early stages of development and thanks to their encouragement, she is a happy, confident child. The staff are always attentive, friendly and great in terms of communication. The children spend a lot of time exploring outside, which we love! We are both teachers and have been thrilled to see our daughter's progress whilst attending Happy Days.
