Review from S L (Mother of Child) published on 30 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have been absolutely delighted by the experience at Happy Days. We moved our daughter from her previous nursery just after they opened and very quickly saw a difference in her confidence, development and overall happiness.

She talked about Happy Days every day of the week and looks forward to going in on her set days. She's made friendships quickly and the staff really know her so well.

We love seeing her updates throughout the day and the communication through their app is fantastic.

There's a lovely community feeling in the nursery amongst the staff, children and parents.

In particular we'd like to give a shout out to Becky and Charlie who have made her feel so welcome.

Overall Experience

Can't recommend Happy days nursery Boorley Green enough, I was very anxious about sending my daughter to nursery but it was the best decision sending her here, she absolutely loves it. The staff are so attentive she can't wait to see her key workers. We are always kept up to date with what she is getting up to. The nursery its self is very clean and the facilities are excellent. Every member of staff we interact with have been amazing. On pick up all the children seem so happy and clam.

Overall Experience
We were one of the first families to get a place at happy days Boorley and we are so glad we did. The staff have been there for us every step of the way. Our daughter is very happy there and loves seeing everyone. We were made to feel welcome from day one with settle sessions and contact during her first days. All of our worries about starting nursery disappear when we see how loved our daughter was there by all the staff. She has now moved up a room and the transition was so smooth. When we struggled as a family with our daughter's illness-staff checked in to see how they could help. And putting her on a dairy free diet was no trouble. After mentioning concerns about her speech we are now working with the team at happy days to monitor and encourage

Overall we are super happy!

Review from Rita K (Mother of Child) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have been waiting for this nursery to open for a while now as we live on the estate and like to avoid getting in the car if possible to support active travel. Similarly to others I didn't want to disrupt my son as he was attending another nursery where he settled in quite well. However the transition was so smooth and he settled in very quickly thanks to all the attention and care he received straight from the settling in sessions. He absolutely loves and thrives at Happy Days. He has connected with all the teachers and made friends with the other kids too. I love seeing him walk in every morning with so much confidence and a smile on his face. One more thing to highlight, the design of the building is outstanding too and definitely feels like it was designed with children in mind. I cannot recommend Happy Days enough. Keep up the good work!

Review from Lauren M (Mother of Child) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter had been at another nursery for about 2 years and had never truly settled there, she still cried every morning at drop off and said she didn't want me to leave her. When she started at Happy Days Boorley Green last month I was worried that her separation anxiety would get worse because it was all new but I have been so surprised by the transformation I've seen in her! She walks in every morning with a smile and waves me off, she comes home talking about her friends and what she's done that day. She loves all the staff and I really feel that they care about her. When I go to collect her she's always happily engaged in something and seems so settled and content. She says things like "I love my new preschool the best in the world!" and "I used to cry at my old nursery but not at my new preschool". She is thriving at Happy Days and moving her there has been the best decision I ever could've made for her. I don't worry about her when she's there because I know she's having fun!

Review from Hannah E (Mother of Child) published on 22 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I've had such a positive experience with Happy Days Boorley Green. My son has been there from when it first opened and the staff were excellent at settling him in and still continue to be great.
I moved him from another nursery and I wasn't sure how he'd settle, as he was never that happy going to nursery, but it was the best decision. He loves going to nursery now!
The nursery is smaller than the one he was at, but I think this is why he's settled so well, as it's less intimidating for him.

I would highly recommended Happy Days Boorley Green if you're local. It's a lovely new, clean and friendly nursery :)

Review from Srianilkumar B (Father of Child) published on 13 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
It wasn't an easy decision to move my son from a nursery he attended and settled well to a new nursery, which is closer to where we live and my elder son's school.
We happened to move my boy to Happy Days Nursery, Boorley Green and we are glad we made the right decision!
Right from the start, the nursery staff and manager (Kim) have been very helpful and accommodating our requests for settle session to get the baby used to the setting. My boy settled very well in just a couple of weeks and he now loves going to the nursery every morning.
Such a great place to send my kid to play, learn and make friends.

Highly recommend the nursery and the staff.

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

We couldn't be happier with the care our daughter receives at Happy Days in just 12 weeks since it opened. The team clearly puts a great deal of effort into ensuring the children develop the confidence, independence, and skills they will need for their next steps.

The nursery environment itself is exceptional. The resources are always clean, tidy, and beautifully thought out, creating a welcoming and engaging space for the children to learn and play. It's clear that every detail has been carefully considered to support their development and curiosity.

Most importantly, the level of care is outstanding. The staff are warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child's wellbeing and progress. We feel incredibly reassured knowing our daughter is in such capable and nurturing hands. We are so grateful for the positive impact Happy Days has had on our daughter's growth and development so far!

Kim Amos
Kim AmosJob Title:Nursery ManagerJoined: 2026

My name is Kim, and I bring 27 years of childcare experience, having worked in a variety of roles across early years settings. For the past 10 years, I have held management positions, allowing me to support teams, lead high-quality practice, and ensure positive outcomes for children and families. I hold a Level 3 qualification in Childcare and Education, and throughout my career, I have completed numerous additional courses that have strengthened my ability to meet the individual needs of children in my care.

As a parent to two young children, I understand firsthand the emotions and decisions families face from choosing the right nursery to navigating developmental milestones and everyday parenting challenges. This perspective has deepened my empathy and strengthened my partnerships with parents.

I believe every child deserves rich, meaningful experiences regardless of age or ability. By providing inclusive, nurturing environments, we give children the tools they need to become confident, curious, lifelong learners.
