Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

All children, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), make good progress in their development in readiness for future learning. Staff carefully plan targeted interventions to enable children to reach their full potential. For instance, they use training to deliver sessions to help children develop their speech and language skills. This helps all children, including children with SEND, to become confident communicators.

Outdoor space

Staff promote children's physical development very well. They ensure that babies have ample room to cruise and develop their core muscles for later walking. Older children climb and develop their balance as they walk on large wooden wheels in the garden.

When searching for a nursery for my 2 year old twin girls I immediately felt that Happy Feet was the perfect setting. Jade is so amazing at thinking of everything for the children and also communicating and fulfilling peace of mind for parents. I’m very very happy with our choice and equally my children love their days at nursery!!

I highly recommend HappyFeet to everyone. My daughter had difficulties settling in however I am so thankful for their patience, flexibility and making her feel comfortable. She has grown from a shy girl to being confident and bubbly in the setting, as well as excelling in numbers & alphabet and many more. Jade and her team are absolutely amazing and dedicate to the children they take on. I know my daughter is in safe hands. I can't thank them enough for being her safe place when I can't be there.

I chose to send my twins here after sending my older daughter here for 3 years because she was always so happy! It literally is like happy feet, coming in to preschool to play and learn all day. The children were always entertained and learnt new things, and always happy to go nursery, and happy when we collect them. The staff are friendly and helpful, they create activities every day and do little trips out to the park, or train station, or a ride on the bus or local care homes. Everything is well thought, even on the hot days, they get out the water slide and pools. Very child centred! Totally recommend Jade and her team!

I chose Happy Feet Preschool for my daughter back in 2022 and have not regretted it since. She has flourished into a knowledgeable, happy, secure little girl knowing that she goes to school every day with a team that have every child's development and welfare at heart and a routine that nurtures and grows the children into confident little humans, ready to take on the outside world. I highly recommend Happy Feet Preschool as a home from home setting with the professionalism required for the perfect Preschool for any child.

Cannot rate Happyfeet preschool highly enough, my Little boy absolutely loves going here, he is so happy there and the variety of things he gets to do there is amazing. The staff are brilliant and so friendly and helpful. Jade should be so proud of what she has achieved and she puts so much thought into everything she does. I just love seeing how happy he is coming out after his day at preschool so excited to tell me all about his day.
