Review from Kelsey C (Mother of Child) published on 24 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We have been to three nurseries before Happy Days - Playbox, and we've never been so welcomed and looked after. I have 100% trust in everyone here, and most importantly, my children love it and always say they have enjoyed it. As a student, my days change randomly, but everyone is beyond accomodating. Thank you, everyone.

Review from A P (Mother of Child) published on 19 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I feel that Playnbox has played a really big role in the development of both my children at every stage. All the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They always manage to bring a smile to their faces. The facilities are brilliant, especially the garden. Both my kids love the outdoors and having the natural green space is their little haven.

Overall Experience
All three of my children have been to Playbox, and despite not living in the area, I would not consider sending them anywhere else.

It is an exceptional nursery with kind, funny and empathetic staff.

Overall Experience

Since my daughter has started here I have found that she has grown in confidence. The staff are always very friendly and welcoming. I am assured that my daughter is getting the attention and care which is very satisfying as a parent it makes leaving her that little bit easier. Thank you.

Review from Karenza T (Mother of Child) published on 16 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My son was thirty hours funded. His care was second to none. The nursery staff have a wonderful way of adapting to every child's needs. My son has a special enjoyment for superheroes and constructing lego, stickle bricks, etc. He has different members of staff who encourage his passion for play, whilst other practitioners are there to make the more challenging aspects/routines more fun (making that great balance).

Thank you Happy Days Playbox for helping my son grow into the adventurous, happy boy that he is.

Overall Experience

My little one has attended nursery since 9 months old. He has thrived throughout his time there. The staff are like a second family going above and beyond to care for individual needs and routine, He is now on his count down to school and follows the smart start programme which enables him to get ready for school following structured activities appropriate for his age and stage.
