Happy Days Nursery provides excellent care for preschool children. The staff are, without exception, warm and welcoming. My Granddaughter recently started attending nursery for the first time and Happy Days provided a gentle program of introductory sessions. The experienced staff ensures that the babies
bond with them so any distress on leaving the family member is kept to a minimum. My Granddaughter now happily goes to a member of staff, arms outstretched and looking forward to playing with the toys provided. The program of planned activities during the week provides new experiences to broaden children's learning across a range of skills. There is outdoor space available for all the children and I like the links with the local nursing home for social visits and to share their grounds for Forest School activities. The meals prepared on the premises are received well by my Granddaughter and encourage trying new flavours and textures. An online daily report is available.

We moved our little boy back in October 2023, he settled in straight away and was comfortable and confident in the environment. He has an amazing relationship with the staff and is excited to see them every day.
No two days are the same, the activities are fantastic- from baking cookies to science
experiments and studying the sky outside upon pick up. My little boy is currently under Speech and Language Therapy (SALT) and the support from the staff has been second to none, regular check-ins and always happy to adapt and build activities around any requests or focus' from his sessions.
Both his speech and confidence have come on leaps and bounds and time has been invested in him to support. A huge thank you to the staff for their support, patience and understanding!

Happy Days Droitwich is a fantastic nursery and my child loves going there. He didn't want to leave today! The building is spacious and bright with lots of interactive toys and books. It is also clean and tidy and the staff ensure there are different activities available to the children e.g. there is
water play, mark making, painting, shredded paper etc. The outside area has plenty of activities including trikes, a kitchen and a sandpit. They are never bored! The staff are excellent, they are brilliant with the children but are also friendly and helpful to parents/guardians. It feels like a very welcome, family environment and I definitely recommend this nursery.

Came to a stay-and-play session with our grandson, which was a really good experience. Staff were friendly and always walked around keeping an eye on the children, they were having a fruit-tasting session with all different types of fruits and making chocolate crispy cakes which the children really
enjoyed. The children looked very happy and engaged.

Happy Days is such a fantastic nursery. It's very spacious and modern and there are vast amounts of toys/activities for the children to play and learn from, including wooden kitchen areas, building blocks, reading corners etc.
My daughter has become less ill at this nursery too.
The staff are amazing.
So friendly and caring. Our daughter has settled in so well. There is an on-site chef too so the variety of food the children are offered is amazing. I love the interaction the nursery has with the care home just down the road, taking the children to see the residents and Santa at Christmas.
They create activity packs for the children and there is also a book library when you leave which you can take and return/swap.
There is a purpose-built outdoor area, which is flat and has a cushioned floor and is very safe for the children.

We moved our daughter to Happy Days Nursery not long after it opened, we were nervous and worried if this was the correct decision for her at the time, as it would be changing and disturbing her routine but we are so glad we made the move and have no regrets. Her confidence and development have come
on so much since starting here. The staff are so friendly and accommodating, they always greet us with a smile and are very welcoming every morning when we arrive. The activities the children do are very well thought out and the facilities at the nursery are amazing.
Thank you to all the staff for providing such an amazing safe learning environment for our daughter!

A great place for little people. From viewing, we knew it was the place for our little boy to go. We adore and trust all the staff and can see that the feelings are reciprocated. The food choices are healthy and varied which is a big thing for me. I like what the curriculum has to offer and how it differs
from others. My youngest will be starting soon so I will have both children at the setting and I couldn’t be more thrilled about it.

Absolutely fantastic nursery. Our little one settled in so nicely at 11 months old and after a week or two, she was reaching out to the wonderful staff on drop-off. She has such a lovely time and is always busy learning, playing and reading. The app is so helpful and you can keep track of what your
little one is up to; with photo updates and details from how well they eat at meal times, how long they sleep at nap times and who changes the nappies etc. We couldn't be happier with Happy Days. The all wooden toys are so much better than plastic and the nursery is really well laid out. The outside space is great for when spring and summer come around.
We couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough. Huge thank you to all the staff and our little one's amazing key worker. You are all the reason Happy Days is as highly rated as it is. 5 Stars!

We moved our son from another setting to Happy Days Droitwich Spa in October 2023.
We have noticed a huge difference in our son he has come on in leaps and bounds.
The staff are excellent one of the reasons for us leaving our old nursery. Five members of staff in particular have all worked so hard.
We love how big it is and how open it is.

Our daughter was quite late starting nursery, so as parents, we were apprehensive about leaving her; however, the staff were very reassuring and took the time to get to know our daughter. She now loves going to nursery, and we can see how much she has taken to the staff. Since starting, her confidence
has grown so much, and we couldn't be more grateful to everyone at Happy Days. they always take the time at the end of the day to talk to us and answer any questions.

Happy Days have far surpassed my expectations of what a nursery can offer and I couldn’t be happier with the support they have given for me and my daughter as she has settled in. They are so professional, communicate really well about what happens while she’s there and, above all, seem to really care
about her. They have been very flexible with extra days we’ve needed childcare for too. Highly recommended!

We loved happy days from the very beginning at the open day. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Nothing is ever too much and you never feel rushed to leave at pick-up time.
The app is regularly updated and the feedback is really useful as to what framework indicators they have achieved.
I feel
that my child has developed such a lovely bond with his keyworker and other staff and I feel like they really do care.
The facilities and the resources are lovely and very clean. The menu is also great as it gives them a good range of different foods for them to try.
Thank you for all the activities you plan to help aid learning.

Outstanding nursery, as a first time mum I was very nervous about my daughter starting nursery. They have squashed every fear I felt and made it an enjoyable and easy process for my daughter and I. She has bonded well with all the staff and loves taking part in the various activities they offer. I 100%
recommend we have come across no problems whatsoever and she enjoys every moment.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.951)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.951) out of 10 for Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Droitwich Spa is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.951 for Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Droitwich Spa is calculated as follows: ( (469 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 491 Ratings = 4.951

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Droitwich Spa is based on 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 96 number of registered child places is 19.2, which has been reached with 41 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
