Happy Days Nurseries & Pre-Schools is celebrating after winning the Nursery World Award 2025 for Online & Social Media. 🏆

The prestigious award recognises the outstanding ways Happy Days connects with families, staff, and the wider early years community through its website, social media channels, and digital resources.

The judges praised Happy Days’ website as a “one-stop shop for parents, providing clear, practical information… from curriculum details and early learning approaches, to nutrition, menus and how children’s wellbeing is supported.”

The group’s innovative use of TikTok was also spotlighted, with behind-the-scenes content such as “day in the life” videos helping to revolutionise recruitment and reaching more than 300,000 viewers. Meanwhile, the Happy Days Podcast was described as “a fresh and innovative way to connect with audiences and showcase the team’s knowledge and passion.”

Alice Avery, Digital Marketing Executive at Happy Days, said:
“Winning this award means so much to our team. We know how important it is for families and practitioners to feel supported, connected, and informed, and we’re proud that our digital platforms help make that possible every day. This recognition is a reflection of the creativity, passion, and teamwork across our nurseries.”

For Happy Days, online communication goes far beyond visibility – it’s about building authentic connections and offering accessible resources that make a real difference to families and early years professionals.
