My daughter has been attending Happy Days since December 2024, starting when she was just 9 months old. We've had such a positive experience in both Explorers 1, and more recently having moved into Explorers 2. Her key workers are exceptional. They genuinely care for her, know her well, and are quick to notice if something isn't quite right. Most importantly, my little girl absolutely loves it here, and I've seen her grow in confidence and independence. I would wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a warm, caring environment for their child.

From the start, my little one settled into his room with no problems at all, which really shows how great the staff are. They're so kind, caring, and make every child feel welcome. It's lovely to see how happy and comfortable my child is there each day. The team always keep us updated and genuinely care about the kids. Couldn't ask for a better nursery!

Absolutely brilliant nursery. My child is so happy and comfortable with everyone in the team. Great communication and helpful, both in the rooms and in the office. I was worried about sending my non-verbal child to nursery but it's so obvious how happy he is!

We couldn't be happier with our experience of Happy Days Salisbury. From the very first day our child attended the nursery, the staff made us feel completely at ease - warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring toward every child. It's clear that they truly love what they do. Our baby absolutely adores going each day - always greeted with big smiles and endless affection. The environment is bright, safe, and full of fun learning opportunities. We've seen such amazing growth in confidence, curiosity, and social skills in our baby since joining. Communication with the team is fantastic - they keep us updated throughout the day with photos, activities, and little milestones, which means so much to us as parents. It's such a comforting feeling to know our child is so well looked after and genuinely happy. We're incredibly grateful for the love and dedication the whole team puts into their work. We couldn't recommend Happy Days highly enough

My little girl (11 months) started here just over a month ago, and I honestly cannot praise the team enough. The settling in process can be really challenging for both a baby and parents, I was super nervous it all. The team have been nothing but understanding and supportive about it all, and the photos I get of her grinning from ear to ear really say it all! She was confidently crawling within a week of attending! The food provided is exceptional and the babies are always doing different activities etc. Thank you, from our family x

I cannot fault Happy Days Nursery. As a first time parent, anxious to leave her baby at nursery, they have been nothing but supportive, communicative and accomodating to both mine and my son's needs. My son loves going into nursery, often barely looking back to say bye! He has great fun with classmates and staff there and his development has skyrocketed since he started. We feel very fortunate to have found such a lovely nursery that really seems to care and is continuously striving to make things as wonderful as they can for the children. A super nursery!

My daughter has been at the nursery since November 2024, throughout that time I have nothing but amazing things to say about Happy Days Nursery. My daughter has come on absolute leaps and bounds starting off as a crawling, quiet little child to now a noisy, happy & walking/running toddler. The time and dedication each staff member puts in to each child can not go unnoticed, they really are the backbone of the nursery. Nothing is ever too much trouble and you always get a full debrief of the day and kept up to date on the next steps they are working towards to help with your child's progress. My child absolutely loves coming to nursery now and the staff worked with me when we first started to go from a child who wouldn't let me out of her site without screaming to now dropping her off with her arms open to be handed over to the staff for the day and no tears instead smiles and a wave goodbye. They have exceeded my expectations and I am so happy I put her in this nursery.

I couldn't be happier with my choice of nursery for my daughter. It's always clear on drop off/ collection and through updates received via the app that she is always in a happy, caring & safe environment when she is at Happy Days Salisbury. I would happily recommend to any parent considering a nursery for their child. Thank you to all staff - from reception to her key worker!

We have been really happy with this nursery, we love the setting and varied activities on offer. The set-up of the rooms and outdoor spaces to allow free flow is excellent. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and all seem really happy working there. The office staff are always helpful (including with things like queries about funding etc) and the room staff seem to bond well with the children. Our son loved attending, and we are sad to be leaving. Our older children attended different nurseries, and we consider Happy Days Salisbury to be the best we have experienced. We have never had any problems and would be happy to recommend to anyone.

Having looked around a few nurseries, we chose Happy Days because of the passion the staff demonstrated for caring and nurturing children. Our daughter has attended for almost a year now and loves it. The facilities are fantastic. It is always clean, fresh and well looked after. The learning and development programmes are really good and our daughter has thrived. All of the staff are very welcoming and always smiling which assures us that we chose the right place. Our daughter has built a wonderful bond with staff caring for her. Her key worker and other team members are always as excited as we are when new milestones are reached, which is lovely. We get daily updates on nappies, meals and sleep time via the app and get regular photos and videos. The menus are amazing and I'm often quite jealous of the delicious meals! Overall Happy Days is a brilliant facility and we know are daughter is cared for and safe when there.

The staff at Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Salisbury are always so welcoming. My daughter can have troubles saying goodbye to me most days she attends, but the ladies in her room are always amazing with her and don't rush her. It's never a bother and they go over and above to help her. My daughter absolutely adores the ladies and I know, when I leave her, she's in safe loving care. Happy Days is one of the best it's like an extended family.
07 February 2025
My son started here after we weren't happy with his prior nursery. In short, we have got our little boy back- he has gone back to loving learning, being chatty and taking part in activities. The safeguarding at the nursery is excellent and all of the staff are so friendly. Also, the menu on offer is healthy, balanced and extensive, we couldn't be happier! Putting him in the nursery has been the best decision and if he is like this after just 2 weeks, we can't wait to see the magic they make as time goes on!
07 February 2025
Our daughter has a great time at nursery and is very well cared for by the lovely staff who are so warm and welcoming and really care very much about the children they are looking after. Our daughter eats well and is thriving. We get lovely photo updates and are kept informed of her food, sleep and nappies throughout the day via the app. The environment is very modern and has been purpose built, so is a fantastic place for the children to play and explore.

If I could describe Happy Days Salisbury in three words they would be; fun, attentive and genuine. I am welcomed with a smiley hello by the front office and any key worker who passes me in the corridor before I get to the room. Then, I'm greeted by bouncy happy children who shout to my daughter "your mummy's here!" I always get a detailed description of my daughter's day and enjoy having a giggle with the lovely staff in Adventurers. The managers are brilliant and make a real effort to get to know my daughter and even my 7 year old. I see them make the same effort with other children of all ages - I honestly don't know how they remember each child and parents names. The nursery often has residents from the local care home come to visit the children, where both generations enjoy spending time together. We'll be sad to leave when my daughter starts school this September. I'd highly recommend Happy Days Salisbury to any parent.

Our little boy is so happy at Happy Days Salisbury. The staff are fantastic and always so welcoming. Our little one has a dairy allergy and it is managed brilliantly by the nursery team which really helps to put our minds at ease. Overall, a fantastic nursery!

Our son started here nearly a year ago just before he turned one and has loved it from the start - the staff are so wonderful with him and we are always greeted with big smiles and hellos when we walk in the door! Everybody makes a special effort to know your child and you can tell how much they care for the little ones they look after. The app they use to track your child's progress is great and gives a snapshot of all the brilliant things they get up to and the office team/leadership correspondence is as well; we always know what's going on at the nursery and are supported with funding etc. Everything is really well considered actually, from the food your child eats to how they interact with the local area and community which is brilliant. As a first-time parent it's a scary thing to leave your child with someone who isn't Mummy or Daddy but I can honestly say putting him here is one of the best parenting decisions we made - he is absolutely thriving!

Our daughter started at this provision at the beginning of September age 12 months and we are so happy with the decision we made. A whole month in and we feel entirely adjusted and welcomed. Our daughter hasn't been the easiest to adjust and is a tricky little gremlin with separation/settling but gosh the team have been incredible, I say team because the care and compassion goes far beyond her wonderful key workers in her room. I have no doubts that we made the right choice and have found the perfect provision for these crucial early years to support her development in every meaningful way.

Staff are very lovely at nursery, also they do absolutely their best to make children happy in here.
23 July 2024
My child has been at Happy Days for over a year now. This is our first experience with a nursery and it has been nothing but positive. We are constantly asked by new acquaintances if our child goes to nursery as they are so well-spoken and inquisitive, and this is definitely in part due to the amazing work of the team at happy days. We will absolutely be sending any future children here, and cannot recommend it enough.
29 April 2024
We visited the nursery in July 2023 when our son was only 4 weeks old having recognised the importance of securing a full-time space at a nursery that we were 100% happy with. From the moment that we walked into Happy Days Salisbury, we were hugely impressed and felt at home. One staff member gave us a fantastic and informative tour - no question was a silly question and we were there for well over an hour. Contact and communication from the nursery before our son joined in March was excellent and the taster sessions were fantastic in getting our son ready to start full-time. Our son has now been at the nursery for 6 weeks. Every day he has gone in with a smile on his face and we've been greeted with a smile on our return at the end of the day. He loves it there and he is thriving. We cannot fault any part of his nursery journey - the people; the place; the facilities; the food are all fantastic! It feels like our son and us are part of a family. We would 100% recommend to others looking for a nurturing nursery.
