Here at the Nursery our philosophy towards day care is centred on the principle that each child is an individual, who brings to Nursery unique life experiences that have shaped the child into the person s/he is.

At Happy Learners Day Nursery we are committed to provide an environment for the child that is welcoming, safe, stimulating and challenging. We provide for children’s Social, Emotional, Physical and Moral development to enable them to grow and develop to their full potential. We strive to create an atmosphere of working in partnership with parents and carers so that the children are happy to attend nursery and you feel confident about leaving your child in our care.

We aim to: To provide a caring, secure environment in which every child is valued as an individual. Offer a quality of experience to further the round development of each child. To encourage independence, confidence and self-esteem. To encourage respect and care for others. To offer equal access to a full range of activities within a broad and balanced curriculum. To develop children’s ability to devise and make independent choices To provide opportunities for exploration, investigating and creativity. To help develop a shared understanding of spiritual, social and cultural diversity.
