About Weston-super-Mare
Nursery
Weston-super-Mare Happy Days is a nursery & pre-school setting within the heart of the Winterstoke Village, Weston-super-Mare. We are ideally located just minutes from the M5 at Junction 21, the nursery has designated parent parking for ease of drop-off and collection.
The setting is bright, calm and encourages free-flow to our outside areas which are available to children all-day long.
Children have lots of fun playing in our low level environments which encourage independence and are wonderfully resourced with equipment that has been carefully selected to ensure the best start for your child.
In January 2022 we opened a new pre-school building allowing our older children to develop the confidence and skills for a smooth transition to school.
Take a look at the guided tour, carried out by our pre-school children!

Leanne Hancock
I am Leanne and I am super excited to be embarking on the journey with the nursery and yourselves and families/carers and all the children, here is a little bit of background about me.
I have 26 years experience within the childcare sector, from running my own business to being a childcare NVQ assessor for Weston College . Working with children has always been a massive passion of mine and want to ensure my enthusiasm and knowledge is passed on to the teams I work with, to ensure high quality care and education for all children and their families /carers.
I myself have 4 children and two grandchildren which I love to spend time with.
I really look forward to meeting you all and helping your children through their happy days journey
