So happy to welcome you!
We are the proud team of Happy Kids (Altrincham Preschool Playgroup). We are a passionate and committed Early Years’ team and we strive for the best outcomes for every child. At Happy Kids, children’s learning takes place through play. Highly trained and experienced practitioners tune into your child and support their learning by sensitively observing and supporting their play in a safe and enabling environment. We aim to create a real love of learning, awe and wonder which will last with your child for a lifetime.
​
The Early Years are such an important time and we strive to create some very special memories during the time your child spends here with us, and in so doing lay solid foundations for their future learning.
​
We love to welcome visitors to our setting as it is only by visiting us and seeing everyone at play that the real atmosphere can be experienced.
​
Please contact us to arrange a visit or pop in if you are passing. We look forward to meeting you!
