What it is like to attend
Happy Days nursery is an exciting place for children to start their education. The nursery provides a colourful, stimulating and motivating learning environment for children to grow and develop. Children settle quickly and are eager to join in with play as soon as they arrive at the nursery. Staff recognise and praise children's efforts and achievements. This helps them to grow in confidence and feel emotionally secure.
Staff are good role models. A consistent approach to managing behaviour ensures children feel safe, secure and listened to. Children behave well and have good attitudes to learning. For example, they listen to instructions attentively when they line up to go outside. Staff help children to understand about taking turns and to share toys. Children learn to be independent from an early age.
Staff have high expectations for children and provide activities that build on what they can already do. Children use their hand-to-eye coordination and small muscles well. This is evident as children use hammers to free sea creatures from coloured blocks of ice. Children enjoy dressing up in the outside area and clearly enjoy imaginative play. The well-planned range of highly enjoyable activities and experiences sustains children's interests and keeps them engaged.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- extend children's good mathematical skills, supporting staff to recognise and build on the opportunities that occur in children's everyday play and activity.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
