My daughter has been going to happy days since June 2022 and will be sad to be leaving for school this September. Every single member of staff at happy days is amazing. I know my daughter is so well looked after. So much so we've put our daughter (yet to be born ) on the waiting list for September 2026. What I particularly like other than the lovely staff and amazing care is staff only send my daughter home she is really poorly to be in nursery, rather than trivial things like a stuffy nose or 'if they're having a bad day' which I have heard other nurseries do. This helps with working at Derriford and not having to leave to pick her up all the time, but also knowing if I do then I need to take it seriously as it rarely happens. My daughter loves it at happy days, she's so excited to see her Key Workers in the mornings and tells me she wants to be like them when she grows up. I can't thank happy days enough!

Our son has attended happy days since he was 11 months old. All the staff have been amazing all the way up to pre school. They are engaging, fun and really do learn what is best for your child individually. All his prior teachers are still very much loved by our boy! We are gutted our youngest can't attend this nursery due to no availability!

I have 3 children at the nursery and have always been so impressed! The staff are absolutely amazing! We have twins and they are so helpful and generous with their time. They help me get the boys to and from the car. They care for my children as though they are their own. We will be so sad to leave! I can't thank the Happy Days staff enough!

Lovely friendly nursery. Team are supportive and caring. My son participates in different activities for the day and enjoys all his meals. The team keep me well informed and I have regular daily update via an app.

My eldest daughter attended Happy Days 8 years ago. When I had my youngest daughter I knew that I wanted her to go to Happy Days. The staff are so kind and caring and the reason I can go to work without worrying!

Amazing nursery for my little girl she's been going since 9 months old and loves going in every day. The staff are really friendly and accommodating. My little girl has multiple allergies but these are dealt with so well she doesn't miss out on any food everything is made safe for her in the room. I wouldn't change anything about the nursery.

We are very pleased with the nursery. My kid loves it there. Staff are very friendly, kind and caring towards the kids. The management staff are also very nice, flexible and accommodative. Overall very satisfied.

The nursery has great facilities & has a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are always so friendly, greeting us as we enter & leave which adds to the positive experience. Any issues/concerns we may have are dealt with promptly and taken seriously. We love the app that allows us to see how he is doing here - although would love more regular updates. All-in-all it is a lovely nursery & we feel our child is learning a lot. What would make it even better is if there were 'halal' food options.

Our daughter has had the most wonderful care and experience since starting at Happy Days nursery. She has experienced so much from explorative play with sand and animals to a variety of different foods for lunch and dinner. I am so happy to leave her every time as I know that her key workers and all nursery staff have her best interests at heart. I would recommend it to anyone.

My son has been attending Happy Days Nursery & Preschool since he was about 9 months old and is now going to be 4 years old. He has always enjoyed his time at nursery and is always excited to go and see all his friends and all the staff that look after him. Lots of the staff most importantly his key person have always gave him so much of their care, time and attention and always keep us up to date on his day and how he's been whilst at nursery.

So much love for Happy Days Nursery & Preschool! Our daughter, who is now 4, joined Happy Days 2 years ago (after bad experiences at another nursery) and the whole team were so welcoming, thorough, kind and caring from the moment we started our settle sessions. Every member of staff we have spoken to have been happy, joyful, kind, caring and so supportive. Our son, who is now nearly 2, started at around 12 months old. He found being apart from me very challenging at first and it was a really difficult time as I had no choice but to return to work after maternity leave. I had much needed hugs, tear wiping and support from various members of staff and they all bent over backwards to help settle my son into the new routine. I thought he'd never cope with nursery, but now, a year on he walks in smiling and happy (and usually makes a beeline for breakfast!). Our children are happy and they both lean in for cuddles and comfort from the staff, which to me, is the biggest telling factor for how good Happy Days is.

The nursery has been supporting my son, who has autism, and they go above and beyond on their support. He started in April 2024 and the improvements are visible day by day. He enjoys going to the nursery.

I am beyond happy with the choice I made to send my child to Happy Days. From the first visit and look around, I just knew it was the nursery for us! My child is kept safe, cared for and supported. Over the years the care and support has extended to me too, to which I am very grateful for. Nothing is too much trouble- they are amazing at reassuring my parental anxieties. My child absolutely loves going to nursery and has built secure relationships with staff.

I have been really pleased with care given to my daughter and the support given to us as a family when getting used to the world of nurseries. My daughter loves being at nursery, she gets excited about going into the car park which I have no doubt is down to the teams hard work in making her feel safe, nurtured and fun. My daughter has been learning loads and it really is lovely to see her flourishing (which I have no doubt the nursery team contribute to). I feel my daughter is very cared for and safe, even when she's slightly under the weather I know the team are making her feel safe and secure so thank you for that!
10 February 2025
Due to me working, Happy Days is really convenient as it's close by. My Daughter enjoys her days there, the staff are so friendly, kind, reliable, and great teachers. I do recommend Happy Days to other friends and family.

Happy Days Derriford is a fantastic nursery. Both of my children are really happy in nursery / pre school and that is down to the staff who are friendly, warm, attentive and professional. The team are very approachable and the environment is welcoming to children and parents. Thank you for all that you do.
