About Penrice
Nursery
Happy Days Penrice is a well-established nursery known for its warm, welcoming, and nurturing environment.
The nursery features a spacious and thoughtfully designed outdoor area, which all children can safely access directly from their rooms. A popular highlight is the mud kitchen—just one of many resources that encourage outdoor learning and imaginative play. Indoors, the nursery has a calm, natural feel, creating a space where children can explore, discover, and enjoy quieter moments.
Families often comment on how much they love both the outdoor space and the beautifully refurbished interior, which together create a setting that supports every aspect of a child’s development.
At Happy Days Penrice, we’re proud to provide the very best environments—not just for the children in our care, but also for the dedicated team who work here.

Meet The Manager
Toni Smith
My name is Toni and I have worked in childcare for 15 years. Starting out with my Level 3 and moving onto a teaching degree. I started teaching in SEN schools and gathered a range of experience and knowledge. However, after having my first son, I found a love and passion for the Early Years. I have worked in nurseries for almost 6 years working my way up from Nursery Practitioner, 3rd in Charge, Deputy and now Manager. I love messy play, science activities and music activities.
Our Unique Curriculum
Happy Days has developed an ambitious, broad and balanced Early Years Curriculum titled “Where Children Shine”. It provides opportunities for children to learn, explore and discover, whilst attending a Happy Days Nursery.
