We’ve spent our entire adult lives helping supported children and families. Initially in my capacity as a social worker, and then together, we fostered children preparing them for adoption. We also managed the first family centre with a nursery in the UK. Later, we were commissioned by the NSPCC to run 2 specialist nurseries in London.
When my wife Joy and I launched Sunny Days in 1995, we had one clear goal. To provide the best quality childcare in Dorset.
Dedicated to
Children's welfare
We’ve used our collective training and experience to create safe, nurturing, environments where children can thrive. Children are indeed at the very heart of Sunny Days. Fun, laughter, singing and learning are a normal part of every day.
It’s of paramount importance to us that all childcare professionals receive high quality training.
The Side by Side trainers and assessors are highly experienced childcare professionals. They provide training for Sunny Days staff, and also work in collaboration with other colleges in the area.
We take extreme care in our recruitment and training processes. Our staff, affectionately known as ‘Sunny Days Stars’, are either professionally qualified or undertaking their apprenticeship. This is done through our sister company, Side by Side Training.
It's a
Family thing
We now have grown children of our own, who also play an integral role in the business. Together, we are proud to run a number of ‘extraordinary’ nurseries throughout the south west.
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about us.
Best wishes,
David Scadden
Sunny Days Director
