Our son, now just 2 attends this nursery 3 out of 5 days a week. The team are great. The manager is great. The way they operate is I think exactly how all children's nursery’s should operate. The premises is clean, safe and the team that look after my son are friendly, always polite and approachable. Im so pleased i found this place. Thank you to the manager and team for doing a great job with my baby boy.

This is an exceptional nursery, very professional, really well managed and all the staff work to a high standard; the care and development they provided to my child was outstanding. I cannot recommend Happy Rainbows enough if you want a setting that feels safe and your child will thrive!

My son has been going here since he was a baby and is now in the pre-school room. He leaves to start big school this September. He has really blossomed since he has been here. The support we have had from this Nursery has been amazing, we are always kept updated on everything that our child does. They are a great team that work here and my son loves coming. He is always talking as much as he about his key worker and all his friends. We had concerns about our little boy when he was younger as he wasn't talking but the team have been so supportive and now he can talk for England. He has learnt so much coming here and would always recommend Happy Rainbow Nursery to everyone!

Happy Rainbows is truly amazing! The moment I visited and chatted with them I knew straightaway our son would be cared for and looked after. All the staff are absolutely amazing! So trustworthy, caring, friendly, nurturing, and knowledgeable. They always communicate with you. You always know what your child has been up to when there. The staff are there for you as a parent too. You can see they really love their job looking after the children. It’s 1 big happy family. My son absolutely loves coming here everyday. He’s been coming here since the age of 1 and he’s now 4 and graduated preschool! Will miss the family. From the bottom of my heart- THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING AND THANK YOU FOR GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND. Victoria Walmsley. X

Amazing nursery!! I honestly could not of picked a better nursery for my daughter who has been there for around 2 years. She has come on leaps and bounds especially with her confidence. The staff are all so lovely and caring. There is always something going on for the children from challenges at home to a special day at the nursery. You are always greeted with a friendly face and a warm welcome! I would highly recommend sending your child to Happy Rainbows 🌈❤️
