Review from Laura D (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Happy Days for just over six months now, and we couldn't be happier with his progress. He has formed wonderful bonds with his key worker and the wider team, which made his transition so much easier. He genuinely looks forward to his days there! We are impressed by the nutritious variety of meals provided and the imaginative range of activities. The standout feature for us is the outdoor space and wild garden - it's a fantastic environment for children to explore and learn.

Reply from Lynn Wordsworth, Nursery Manager at Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Poole

Thank you so much for a lovely review. The Team in Tiny Explorers are beaming!

The staff and facilities are fantastic. Always listening and adapting to each child's needs. Lovely setting with the garden available to everyone and used often. As my child likes to quote, 'no job is too big, no task is too small'. Needless to say, he loves it here! Thank you!

Overall Experience

My son has been attending this nursery for a while now, and I couldn't be happier with the experience he's having. The teachers are incredibly friendly, warm and genuinely caring. It's clear they put a lot of effort into making the children feel comfortable and supported. My son seems very happy here, and that alone gives me so much peace of mind. The other children are welcoming. The classroom itself is spacious and filled with plenty of engaging activities to keep children busy and stimulated. The garden is also lovely - a wonderful space for them to play outdoors. I appreciate the healthy snacks and dinners provided. My son can tell me about his day, and I am genuinely happy.

Overall Experience

My daughter thoroughly enjoys going to Happy Days Nursery. She has made lots of friends, and she has a great relationship with her teachers in class. The activities are fabulous and very educational, and my daughter's development has really improved since attending. The staff are friendly, caring and very supportive and make it a special place for the children to learn and play. The food choices and the food given could be a bit more varied. The same food given regularly, more meat based food should be provided, lots of vegetarian and non meat based food served, but lots of fruit, which is great. I think Happy Days Nursery is very good, keep up the good work!

We love Happy Days and could not recommend them more. The girls in both Explorers 1 and 2 have made my daughter and us as parents really comfortable and informed on every step and progress. We couldn't be more thankful for the love they show my little one.

An amazing, supportive and caring nursery. My daughter is thriving at Happy Days Creekmoor. She goes in happy and comes home smiling, excited to tell me about her day. I couldn't have asked for a better nursery.

My little boy started at Happy Days last March and moved to Explorers 1 in December. The staff have always been so lovely, and he has settled in quickly to the new room. We are always kept up to date with what he has been doing, and we love seeing the pictures. He has learnt so much. The staff are always setting up different activities to keep them engaged. We are really happy that we made the choice for him to attend Happy Days.

Review from Amy P (Mother of Child) published on 9 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been attending Happy Days Poole since she was 12 months old. She turned 3 last year and is now moving up to the preschool room. Our daughter has excelled whilst being at Happy Days. She is a bright happy 3 year old and loves her days at nursey. She has also made some great friends. The daily activities from making bread, water play, discussing emotions etc. are brilliant and our daughter talks about these fondly. The staff including the management team are excellent. They understand each child's needs and makes sure they feel happy and secure. We are always kept informed, either personally or via the family app. We could not recommend Happy Days enough to other parents and have already referred family members to the nursey.

Our daughter has been attending Happy Days since she was nine months old, and she has always felt very happy and safe there. Whenever we pick her up. She is always having a nice ti,e, and she is very fond of the children and staff. I asked her what her favourite thing about nursery is, and she said 'the singing' - she loves all the songs and says they sing every day!

Review from Karla M (Mother of Child) published on 5 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are incredibly happy with the care and attention our daughter receives at this nursery. From the very beginning, the staff have been welcoming, professional, and genuinely caring. I struggled with Post Natal Anxiety and being with my daughter on her settling-in days was such great help. One of the standout features is their beautiful outdoor facilities - thoughtfully designed to encourage exploration and connection with nature. It's such a joy to see our daughter happy and socialising with the the other kids. She's thriving in this environment, growing in confidence, curiosity, and happiness. We couldn't ask for a better place to support her early development!
