My little boy has been at Sunny Days for almost a year now and started when he was 10 months old. He has thrived there and absolutely loves going in to nursery. The staff are all absolutely lovely and I can see he has built a nice bond with them and is happy to see them. He has learned so much whilst there and I appreciate their in depth updates at the end of each session and the updates throughout the day via the app. The management are communicative and really helpful. I simply cannot understand the ofsted reviews and wouldn't hesitate recommending this wonderful nursery to anyone.

Was a good experience for my son, he loves going every day. But too expensive nursery, for a single mom even with the government help is very hard.

Great nursery

We have two children in Sunny Days. Our son is almost 4 and started there when he was 11 months, so he has been through every class. We also have a daughter who is 17 months in Babies now. We have been very impressed by the care in Sunny Days for both of them. Our son has made great friendships throughout his time. He loves going in every day and he is always full of excitement about what he has done. Staff have been very caring with him and we feel that he has come in leaps and bounds and he is ready for school. We feel that the preschool team at the moment is very strong and experienced and we trust them to take good care and offer him new ways to progress.
Our daughter has absolutely loved her time at sunny days so far. She walks straight in with a smile on her face every day and she remains happy even during long days. She has picked up so much at nursery, like songs and signs and different games and we feel that the staff really know her and care for her.
We love how accommodating they've all been about things like baby led weaning and cloth nappies and potty training and how they always have time to discuss the day or any concerns we may have. We feel that our children have come on in leaps and bounds and that they are safe and happy.

Sunny Days Dorchester - Babies

Our daughter attends Sunny Days Dorchester in the Babies room. She has a wonderful time, she loves seeing the staff and will not only wave but blow them kisses and give cuddles. She always looks so happy when we have pictures of her and when we collect her. They monitor food, drink, naps and nappies. I am so pleased we found this nursery for her.

Caravan holiday

My family and I are so happy with Sunny Days, especially with Margret Crisp. She organised a time away for my family and I which was really needed as my daughter currently has Leukaemia. Thank you once again xxx

Amazing pre school

Two of my children have attended Sunny days Parkstone and I can only say how lucky I was to find this amazing place for my children when my family moved to Poole. The Parkstone team are truly a wonderful, professional and caring. All the staff listen and promptly address any questions or concerns. They give great feed back on your child鈥檚 progress, behaviour and daily activities. They manage to incorporate all the children鈥檚 individual needs and interests while helping them get used to a bigger group setting. I feel they have helped give my children the confidence and skills they need to move on to primary school. Myself and my children will deeply miss all the staff at Sunny Days Parkstone. Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback. Since your review, staff retention and recruitment has been one of our main challenges and we are pleased to see now we are in a very strong position with a larger, more qualified team to move forward positively :)

Sunnydays is great!

Sunnydays has been a nurturing and educational environment for my child since he was 10 months. Their communication has always been excellent, as is their support and kindness. We will be sad to say goodbye!

Wonderful Nursery

My daughter loves attending and the staff really care for her and her wellbeing. Everyone who works there is very kind and sees the children as children instead of a salary. They are considerate of my daughters safety and have helped her learn and experience many new things.
