Review from Charlotte B (Mother of Child) published on 7 October 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Happysaurus Nursery is a wonderfully bright, warm and nurturing environment where my son is learning beautifully. There are many different wonderfully prepared activities, a variety of learning measures to support his learning. The staff are incredibly welcoming and supportive and my son thoroughly enjoys attending nursery here.

Overall Experience

Both my son and daughter have attended the Saurus group of nurseries with my daughter being at Happy since she was 18 months old. Staff are amazing, dedicated, nurturing and go above and beyond to ensure the safety and emotional well being of both child and parents at times! Continuously improving and adding to their impressive garden and play area and do some interesting creative work too. Healthy and innovative freshly prepared food. Could not recommend them high enough, facilities are amazing but it’s the staff that sets this place apart from all its competition in Shoreham.

Review from Amy (Mother of Child) published on 23 December 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started in September at 9 months and my husband and I are so pleased with the care and attention she receives. We love that she will be in the baby room until she is 2 and can really establish herself there. There is so much space (3 rooms for the babies alone) and she gets to do so many exciting things while she is there. We also love that we get a record sheet of her day so we can easily refer to this. Thank you to everyone for making her transition to nursery so easy and for all the love and care you give her!

Both our children are at Happysaurus and love their time at the nursery. We are very happy, with the kid's interaction with the staff and other children, they have a great relationship with both.

Our experience at the nursery have been excellent, we have really seen it, and the children learnings.

Overall Experience

I can't rate this nursery higher. The whole experience has been nothing but perfect. My son's whole attitude has completely changed for the better. He's become more confident, more self-aware he has become more independent and happy to help and do things for himself. They also helped me massively with potty training. Lovely staff.

Review from H S (Mother of Child) published on 7 October 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended the setting since he was 7 months old. Since starting the nursery my son's confidence has grown immensely and all the staff have such a caring approach with him, all the staff are very welcoming and will go above and beyond to put parents minds at ease. The amount my son has developed and learnt since being in the setting surprises me every day. It is also such a positive that they teach all children British sign language to incorporate into the daily routine. Overall I am very happy with the setting and would highly recommend to others.

Overall Experience

Happysaurus members of staff have been very welcoming and caring to us. The environment is amazing, especially the fantastic large garden with loads of bikes and a pirate ship to play in. The staff are always very approachable and give lots of feedback to the end of every day. Great great nursery!

Review from Philippa M (Mother of Child) published on 21 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at Happysaurus Nursery since he was a year old. He loves nursery and has developed so much in the time he has been attending Happysaurus. The staff are all brilliant and obviously care hugely about their work and the children. My son has developed obvious bonds with a number of the staff and his keyworker is brilliant. The range of activities offered is so wide-ranging and the whole atmosphere and environment is so welcoming and fun. I cannot recommend this nursery enough and have never had a single worry leaving my child there while I am at work. He didn't even really ever have any issues being handed over and now actively moves into the arms of the staff at the drop off time!

Overall Experience

My son has attended the Saurus group of nurseries since he was 9 months and has just moved to Happysaurus due to the amazing space here. I can confidently head to work knowing my son will be happy, safe, well fed and will have a great day. I wouldn't think twice about recommending this nursery. The staff are so friendly and caring and have a genuine interest in my son as he's grown up.

Review from Ewen R (Father of Child) published on 10 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Fantastic nursery setting with all mod cons for modern development of a child. Our son moved to this nursery as soon as it opened and has been extremely happy there, as have we. He seems already to have developed further with added confidence and attention span, which is in no small part to Grace and her team.

Would recommend to anyone.

Meet the Team (2)

Nikki Job Title: Nursery Manager
Nikki

With over 13 years of dedicated experience in early years education, Nikki has risen through the ranks from an apprentice to a manager. She is deeply passionate about early childhood development and takes great joy in witnessing children learn and progress through the various stages of their lives. Her comprehensive understanding of how children's brains develop has been further enriched by raising her own daughter, who also attends the setting with her.

Throughout her journey, Nikki has held positions as a team leader, assistant manager and now a manager. Her hands-on experience and commitment to fostering a nurturing environment have been instrumental in creating positive and enriching experiences for children. She believes in supporting parents by providing them with the reassurance that their babies are in capable and caring hands. Her goal is to ensure that every child's experience is not only safe but also filled with opportunities for growth and learning.

Rachel Job Title: Deputy Manager Joined: 2012
Rachel

Rachel began her career in the childcare sector in May 2012. In the early stages of her career, she completed her Level 3 apprenticeship qualification. This role allowed her to develop her understanding and knowledge of children and young people, focusing on how they learn and develop, and what childcare practitioners can do to provide an enabling environment. The goal is to stretch and challenge the children in her care to reach their full potential while ensuring their safety and meeting their care needs.

She is a strong believer in helping children and her team develop a growth mindset, encouraging each child to think independently and critically while building the resilience to persevere in all they do. A wide range of early years theories are used to support children's learning through play. Alongside this, she helps children develop school readiness by fostering independence within the setting so that by the time they leave, they are prepared for their new journey in school.
