March 27, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter started attending in September 2020. At first it was all very new to her and quite daunting. However the team at Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School – Abbey Meads always made her feel at ease and were so upbeat, warm and friendly which made such a difference. Now she looks forward to the days when she is scheduled to attend. She loves it. The staff are amazing, the handover at the end of the day is always so detailed and informative as you get a real insight about how the day has been. I know that its going to be hard to say goodbye in August but I can honestly say this year has been a very difficult one for all children but Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School – Abbey Meads have taken it in their stride and made all the children their priority to keep them safe and well. Would highly recommend to anyone.

March 27, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son joined this nursery at the start of March and he absolutely loves it. He is always so happy, content and loves his nursery teachers. They made him feel so welcome and he always asks for them at home.

November 4, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Happy Days since the start of September. It took him a few weeks to adjust to nursery life, but he has now settled in well.
He really enjoys going to the Nursery and is eager to go inside when he sees the building and staff. The staff are very approachable and I believe have really helped with my sons development in such a short time.

November 4, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Happy Days for 2 years now. He used to cry at drop off as he didn’t want to go (purely an attachment issue to me) but that soon stopped as he enjoys it so much and knows he will be doing fun things there. The staff all care so much and are approachable and knowledgeable about my son and his development.

July 26, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended Happy Days since she was 11 months old and next week will leave nursery as a happy, inquisitive 4 year old who is looking forward to starting school. The staff have done a brilliant job in preparing her for school, although she is really going to miss the adults with whom she has build fantastic relationships.
The staff were brilliant during the pandemic and when my second child joined during this time, they made sure that his induction was as smooth as possible given the circumstances. He has settled in really well and has built some lovely relationships with the adults in his room.
The communication between nursery and home has always been extremely good and a detailed handover is provided at the end of each session.
The purpose built building provides a warm and welcoming environment for the children. My children always go in happily and look forward to seeing their friends and taking part in the wide variety of fun activities that are planned for them.

July 28, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Happy Days Nursery for two years now and will not miss a single day if he can help it. After visiting many nurseries, Happy Days was far cleaner, decluttered and spacious. I love the outdoor learning opportunities and free flow system, which is synonymous with how we provide care for our son at home. The staff are approachable and courteous, and I am provided with thorough feedback after every day. My only niggle is I wish my son would come home with more arts and crafts and see a range of mediums used. But this is purely nitpicking.
Lastly, as an epi-pen user, the care and preparation in making the nursery a safe place for my child have far outreached my expectations.

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter attends happy days and absolutely loves it. The staff are brilliant and attentive. My son will be starting in January and I’m certain I will be sending my youngest there when it’s their turn.

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been at Happy Days since May this year, it was the first time he had been to this kind of setting and it took him a couple of weeks to settle, but the staff were so understanding and patient. Now, he absolutely loves it – he talks about it all the time! If there are days when he’s feeling a little homesick the nursery have put together a family book for him with pictures of all the people in his life and he uses it to help him, he loves it all! He has grown so much and really come out of his shell, hes also non stop talking now! Thank you!

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has enjoyed her time at Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School – Abbey Meads, forming close bonds to her key workers and other staff. She takes part in a wide range of activities and enjoys helping with meal times. The nursery supported us during potty training which we are also very thankful. Pickups have been improved with the reduced restrictions and we enjoy going into the nursery to hear about her day and see her thriving in the setting.

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Happy Days Nursery in Swindon since January and we are extremely happy with the progress he has made once he adjusted to nursery life. The staff are always polite and enthusiastic at drop-off, allowing for my son to feel at ease when going in (he now willingly heads into the building). I’ve never had an issue with the nursery, the facilities are great and the staff are extremely accommodating with my son’s food allergies.
I’d highly recommend this nursery to anyone considering.

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son joined Happy Days in June – I have been so impressed with the way all staff have welcomed him and made me feel informed and happy about this massive transition for him and for myself. The team are all so caring and supportive of him and his needs to make his induction as easy as possible.

April 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has attended nursery since March 2022. The staff were so understanding about leaving him for the first time in a nursery environment. He settled really well and built good relationships with his key person and the staff in the Explorer room. He has come on leaps and bounds with his development. He communicates so well using some simple sign language, as well as speaking.
My son is very active and absolutely loves being outside in the amazing garden space that Happy Days have to offer.
Staff give good informative feedback, also adding in the highlights of the day.

April 20, 2023 at 12:00 amWould really recommend Happy Days to anyone looking for a nursery setting. Both my girls have and are attending, and they are wonderful providers.
My daughter, who currently attends some mornings, was always hard with the handover, but when she was welcome in a calm manner and reassured.
Thank you, Happy Days staff, for all you do for all children.

April 20, 2023 at 12:00 amThe whole team are amazing. My little girl has thrived at nursery – they are honest, compassionate and trustworthy, and I feel she is very well looked after. They offer a huge range of activities daily for their development. Two ladies, especially in explorers, are fab. Would highly recommend.

April 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son absolutely loves coming to nursery to see his friends and his teachers and always comes in with a smile on his face.
The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the rooms always look lovely.
I work at this nursery also and have to say this is the best company I’ve ever worked for as the managers and staff are very lovely.

April 21, 2023 at 12:00 amGreat and friendly staff my daughter always has the best time. Great feedback on how the day has been. Helped my daughter settle in well at the beginning with multiple settles before she started I would 100% recommend this nursery!

April 25, 2023 at 12:00 amA lovely bunch! We’re new to the nursery but have already found everyone to be so friendly and welcoming. They’ve really helped to settle our little one in and it’s so nice to see her little smile when she’s dropped off in the morning.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amMy Daughter has been attending Happy Days Nursery since 2022. Since then she has developed a medical condition, which the Staff have been absolutely great with. Reassuring her and understanding her needs. Also the Nursery Staff are very good in seeing a child’s needs and don’t treat the children all the same but as individuals. Very glad we chose this Nursery. The Chef at the Nursery is also really good, cooking lovely food and lots of variety. Well done.

June 5, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son loves coming to nursery. He tells me how his day is and if you have got a question the staff always give me an answer then. It reassures me and if you need a bit of help they are always there to guide you.
