Be Happy Day Nursery , Burnham
“To take children seriously is to value them for who they are right now rather than adults-in-the-making.” ~ Alfie Kohn
Our Story
In May 2016, Be Happy Directors Julie Richards and Hellen Llawuo took over Little Blues Nursery School. Julie’s son was attending the nursery at the time, so she already knew the staff, children, and day-to-day operations well. This personal connection inspired their commitment to maintaining a nurturing environment.
A Warm, Welcoming Setting
We’ve created a natural, welcoming atmosphere where children feel secure and happy. By limiting our places, we’ve ensured a premium, intimate experience for children aged 3 months to 4 years 11 months, whether attending day care or funded sessions.
Strong Partnership With Parents
We believe parents are a child’s first and most important teachers. That’s why we work in close partnership with families, ensuring continuity between home and nursery. Our ethos of “placing children first” helps every child feel unique, secure, and supported in their development.
Learning Through Play
Our days are filled with a wide range of stimulating indoor and outdoor activities, tailored to each child’s stage of development. We follow the EYFS framework, offering opportunities for problem-solving, creativity, risk-taking, and independent thinking.
School Readiness & Confidence
Our Pre-School room provides a more structured environment, helping children build the confidence and skills they need to transition smoothly to school. All activities are designed to be fun, engaging, and developmentally appropriate.
Healthy Meals Included
We’re open all year round and offer holiday clubs to support working parents. A local catering company provides our fresh, healthy, two-course lunches, designed in collaboration with our team. Meals are served on a rotating 4-week seasonal menu and can be adapted for most special diets.
Please inform us of any allergies—our meals are nut-free and allergen-aware. Meals, breakfast, and tea are included in nursery fees. For funded-only places, a small charge applies for meals.
Convenient Location
Our setting is based at Burnham Football Club with ample parking, making drop-offs and pick-ups easy and stress-free.
“Our passion and love for children is paramount. We offer quality childcare in a friendly, welcoming environment. At the heart of our ethos is the well being and happiness of the children. We place our children first and work in partnership with our families, creating an umbrella of care for all. We are committed to ensuring that every child will be very happy during their time with us.”
