They made her nursery transition smooth with their warmth, patience, and genuine kindness. We’re also grateful to Kerry, her initial key worker, for her early support.\n\nWe’ve loved the photos and updates through the app—seeing our daughter happy and exploring gives us such peace of mind. Ella’s personalised handovers have been especially thoughtful.\n\nAs our daughter moves into the Kiwi room, it’s reassuring to see Ella and Eleanor continue their support. Their professionalism, empathy, and positivity have made a lasting impression.\n\nWe’d also like to thank Becca for always being cheerful, helpful, and responsive.\n\nThank you for having such an amazing team who go above and beyond every day.",

From the first day, we were really impressed by how welcoming and thoughtfully designed the nursery is. It’s clear they’ve put a lot of love into creating an environment where kids can learn and have fun at the same time.\n\nThe curriculum/actives are well-planned and engaging, and we’ve seen our daughter thrive in ways we didn’t expect. She’s grown more confident, social, and curious about the world around her, and I know it’s because of the experiences she’s had at Happy Trails Play. They really know how to make learning feel exciting for the kids.\n\nWhat truly stands out, though, is the staff. Every single person there is warm, friendly, and incredibly dedicated. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in how they care for the children. They’re always full of energy, and they genuinely seem to connect with our daughter (and other children) in a meaningful way.\n\nWe feel really lucky to have found such an exceptional place. The team at Happy Trails Play deserves all the credit for creating this special space, and I would recommend it to any parent who wants the best for their child. It’s been an amazing experience for our daughter, and I’m so grateful for everything they’ve done for her.",

HAPPY TRAILS IS THE BEST NURSERY!!!! We wanted to share our heartfelt thanks to Ella and Eleanor for their wonderful care of our daughter in the Blueberry room. They made her nursery transition smooth with their warmth, patience, and genuine kindness. We’re also grateful to Kerry, her initial key worker, for her early support. We’ve loved the photos and updates through the app—seeing our daughter happy and exploring gives us such peace of mind. Ella’s personalised handovers have been especially thoughtful. As our daughter moves into the Kiwi room, it’s reassuring to see Ella and Eleanor continue their support. Their professionalism, empathy, and positivity have made a lasting impression. We’d also like to thank Becca for always being cheerful, helpful, and responsive. Thank you for having such an amazing team who go above and beyond every day.

We've had a truly wonderful experience with Happy Trails Nursery! My son absolutely loves it there and is going to miss it so much now that he's graduating. The environment is nurturing, fun, and filled with so much joy. A special thank you to all his lovely teachers who took such great care of him-listening patiently to all his stories, encouraging him to express himself, and even making him dance with happiness! Your kindness, dedication, and love made all the difference. We'll always carry these memories with us!

Happy Trails Play has been such a wonderful place for our daughter, and I can’t speak highly enough about the impact it’s had on her. From the first day, we were really impressed by how welcoming and thoughtfully designed the nursery is. It’s clear they’ve put a lot of love into creating an environment where kids can learn and have fun at the same time. The curriculum/actives are well-planned and engaging, and we’ve seen our daughter thrive in ways we didn’t expect. She’s grown more confident, social, and curious about the world around her, and I know it’s because of the experiences she’s had at Happy Trails Play. They really know how to make learning feel exciting for the kids. What truly stands out, though, is the staff. Every single person there is warm, friendly, and incredibly dedicated. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in how they care for the children. They’re always full of energy, and they genuinely seem to connect with our daughter (and other children) in a meaningful way. We feel really lucky to have found such an exceptional place. The team at Happy Trails Play deserves all the credit for creating this special space, and I would recommend it to any parent who wants the best for their child. It’s been an amazing experience for our daughter, and I’m so grateful for everything they’ve done for her.

Our Daughter joined Happy Trails Play in March and we can see what progress she has made since she joined. We see how much she loves going to nursery and she enjoys her days there fully. I want to say big thank you to all the staff members in nursery, they are welcoming, kind, amazing and caring. Also the owner of Happy Trails Play is amazing . She has made our daughter transition very smooth and also she has been very supportive with us.

Happy Trails has been an incredible find for us. Our little one does several days a week and is loving it. The key workers are amazing, super helpful and their values and mantras are so well founded and grounded. They've already added so much to the community and we can't wait to participate more, especially with the allotment next door. You can tell everyone there is striving to do their best to produce the best atmosphere for growing minds and bodies. The environment is clean, the activities are varied and all the staff are friendly and professional. 10/10 from us so far! (Blueberry room).
