Emma and Paul go out of their way to ensure the children are happy and loved. My little girl started with them over 2 years ago whilst at a Flying Start nursery and then into school nursery. From day one she has loved it. Emma and Paul accommodated her dairy allergy with no problem and supported us whilst we worked through it.
They have a lovely home set up to make all the children feel like it is their second home and that they are part of their family. They do such a lovely range of activities like parks trips, walks in the woods to do yoga, mindfulness, emotion wellbeing stories and activities, themes related to the time of year or to link with school/nursery.
Emma and Paul have also been a big support to is as a family with a lot of other things going on, always happy to listen and support when they can. The daily diary updates of what the children have been doing along with photos is so lovely too.
We will really miss Emma and Paul, our daughter is already saying we have to go and visit soon.
Thank you for all you've done.

Aww we miss little Miss already. And you guys!
Please keep in touch and thank you. Love Emma & Paul ☺️

Our journey with Happy Childcare started 2 years ago when our almost 3 year old was in a very expensive private nursery which didn't offer wrap around to our local school. A mum friend recommended Emma and Paul who not only could offer school wrap around, but also accommodate our required number of days a week to fit our schedule, and we haven't looked back since.

Another bonus (and what we'll be eternally grateful for) was that Emma is a nutritional therapist who helped us through our son's poor relationship with food. We now have a regular family eating structure and he has a far more varied diet now and willingness to try new foods - something he wouldn't contemplate before.

The setting is a lovely home with dedicated play room and outside space to play, our son felt super comfortable there and made special memories and the closest of friends with children of all ages. Emma and Paul treated him like he was one of their own. We'd get digital daily diary updates of what they'd been up to, the meals they ate and multiple photos every single day, which was so lovely to see them all playing happily together. Trips out to the park, bear hunts in the woods, practising yoga, dancing, educational activities, lots of outdoor play, Lego, arts & crafts, dressing up, watching films, even a splash in the paddling pool on summer days.

I can't recommend Happy Childcare enough as a safe, loving home from home ❤️

Aww thank you Jo. I’m tearing up again 🥲We miss you all already. Keep in touch. Emma & Paul 🧡

I can't recommend Happy Childcare enough - our daughter had previously attended private nurseries which were great but here, it was like she joined a family ❤️ and she absolutely flourished. Emma and Paul have been so brilliant with her - especially as she had an unusual allergy to accommodate for. Thank you so much!

Aww she has been an absolute pleasure to care for. We will all miss her kind, caring and loving ways so much. Thank you😊

My daughter started in September 2021, and felt at home instantly. Emma and Paul were always very welcoming, and happy to fit around my timetable.
My daughter felt like one of the family, and talked about what she gets up to whilst she's with them. She's loved the new meals she's tried with them too.
I'd wholeheartedly recommend Happy Childcare for your children, I couldn't imagine anyone better to look after my daughter.

Excellent childcare provided treated our little girl as one of the family and loved being part of a lovely group of children.
Instantly bonded with our daughter and she always had a smile when we dropped her off and a tear when she left.

Emma and Paul were great in giving us updates and created a really informative newsletters that showcased all the amazing things the children have been up to.

Would definitely recommend as a loved and secure place for your little one.

I’m so glad I chose Emma and Paul to look after my little boy, they are amazing with him, he has been settled there from day one. He often doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day and talks about them and the other children constantly. I wholeheartedly recommend them ☺️

Emma and Paul have been looking after my 4 children for nearly 7 years. My children settled in instantly with them when they were babies. They are a lovely couple and their home is a very welcoming enviroment - they treat all the children they look after as their own.

They have been a great help with potty training and with their many years of experience it didn't take long for my children to grasp it which made life so much easier for me.

Time is made for reading stories and singing songs which has helped immensely with their speech and vocabulary.

My children have enjoyed many trips to the farm and playcentres with Emma, Paul and their family. My childhren have also gained friendships with the other children they look after.

Emma and Paul are highly professional and are very passionate about what they do. They have been an absolute god send to me and I dont know what I would have done without them. I have been able to go to work and have no worries about my children as I know they are looked after fantastically.

My daughter has been in childcare with Emma and Paul since she started primary school. She is now in her final year. I will be beyond gutted to not have the peace of mind in the mornings that Emma and Paul have got my child off to school safely without me having to worry about anything.
Their family environment is always welcoming, their own children are a credit to them and my daughter idolises them.
It’s literally a second home, my child is treated as their own child while she is in their care.
I can always count on them for help with care out of my days if I’m stuck, they are more than accommodating and so so reliable.
Their rates are fair and it’s more than value for money knowing how well they look after my child. You will not be disappointed with this childcare service! 5 star!

Our two children spent many years with this fantastic couple, who have played such a big part in our lives.
Our son went from nine months old when I returned to Work, emma and Paul helped with every aspect of his development. I could work daily knowing that he was In safe hands and enjoying himself with the various activities that took place.
Our daughter went every morning and after school. Both children enjoyed socialising with all the other children, and enjoyed all the home cooked meals.
We are truly great full for everything they have done for us and will always remain good friends.
Thank you xx
