Review of Greendale Private Day Nursery from Bronagh E (Mother of Child) published on 20 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We've been incredibly fortunate to have both our children attend Greendale Day Care. They each started at just 11 months old and have thrived every step of the way. Our youngest has just turned two and absolutely loves going in each day to see the staff and her little friends.

The team are so caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children's wellbeing. As parents, it's incredibly reassuring to know our children are in such kind and capable hands. Leaving your child in someone else's care is never easy, but the staff are so friendly and supportive that it makes it that bit easier. I couldn't recommend Greendale enough. It was the best decision we made to put them in daycare and watch them thrive and learn new skills among other little ones and see them become friends.

Review of Clearly Kids Day Nursery Newtownards Road from Ewelina D (Mother of Child) published on 28 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been with Clearly Kids for the last over 3 years now. At this point the day care became to my child a part of his family. The continous work and passion I keep seeing from all the ladies is simply hard to match. I do trust completely in a genuine relationship between me, my child and all ladies from our lovely day care. No matter how busy day can get sometime-the staff is always attentive and caring. Nothing is never too much or too difficult - always open and home like everytime we are calling in. Exceptional team of dedicated carers is an understatement - ladies go above and beyond for our children and parents. Superstars deserving recognition.

Review of Clearly Kids Day Nursery Newtownards Road from R L (Mother of Child) published on 28 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have just recently returned to work from maternity leave and naturally it was an emotional rollercoaster for myself and the family. We have chosen to send our little boy to this nursery and couldn't be happier with the decision. The facilities are exceptional, extremely clean and bright. The varied menu for little ones is fantastic, I am sure he will enjoy the cooking more at nursery than anywhere else! Shelley and the girls have made this transition so much easier for us all, their caring nature and efficiency at their jobs is second to none. They have been a huge part of this transition for us and can't thank them enough! Everyone of them is worth their weight in gold.

My son attends Little Gems Afterschool and has done for the last year. They are absolutely fantastic with the children. Nothing is ever a problem and it is so well organised. There is great efficiency in getting the kids to and from school. They do a great variety of activities afterschool and enjoy outdoor play. The staff are all brilliant, really approachable and take great care of the children. Thank you for the hard work you all put in!

Review of First Steps Junior Academy from I G (Mother of Child) published on 20 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery provides a warm, nurturing, and safe environment that immediately puts both babies and us parents at ease. The staff are attentive, caring, and clearly experienced, showing genuine affection and patience. It's reassuring to see how well they understand individual needs, from feeding routines to nap schedules, and how thoughtfully they communicate updates throughout the day.

The space itself is clean, bright, and well-organized, with age-appropriate toys and sensory activities that support early development. There's a lovely balance between structured play and free exploration, allowing babies to grow at their own pace while still being gently guided.

What stands out most is the strong sense of trust the nursery builds with families. Staff are approachable and always willing to listen or offer advice. Overall, it's a wonderful environment where babies feel secure, stimulated, and cared for

Review of Clearly Kids, Lisburn from Leigh H (Mother of Child) published on 17 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I would 1000% recommend this nursery to any parent/guardian!

He has been full time here since he was under a year old and honestly the staff members who have cared for my son feel like more like family members as their help and support has contributed to my sons development immensely. They have been a big support to me as a parent also. From potty training, crafts, weekly themes, well balanced meals and snacks and encouraging my child to be helpful, polite and kind. I will be sad the day he has to leave.

Review of Little Gems Private Day Nursery from S A (Mother of Child) published on 10 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a first-time mum, I was naturally quite apprehensive about sending my baby to nursery from such a young age. However, I can honestly say the experience has been wonderful from the very beginning.
My baby has grown through the different rooms-from babies to wobblers-and every transition has been incredibly smooth and well-managed. There were never any issues, which really reassured me as a parent.
The level of love and care the staff provide is truly exceptional. They give each child individual attention and genuinely follow the parents' lead, which makes a huge difference. Every single member of staff is kind, considerate, and clearly passionate about what they do.

It's such a comfort knowing my child is in a safe, nurturing, and loving environment every day. I couldn't have asked for a better place for my little one.

Overall Experience

My son has attended Greendale since he was 11months old. He loves it. He is now in Greendales pre school and thankfully nothing has changed. He is a sociable and caring child which has only been aided by greendale and their staff. I have no concerns when dropping my son off knowing he will have a fun and educational day.

Review of Greendale Private Day Nursery from Amy D (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

So so pleased with Greendale for my little girl. The staff are amazing, always going above and beyond. My little one made the transition to the toddler room and the girls did absolutely everything to make sure it was as comfortable for her as possible. All the staff have something lovely to say or a conversation every time we are in and you can guarantee the managers, even when busy, will pop their head out and check in or give a cheery wave out the window. Great facilities, great staff and delighted with the progress my little one is making here.

Review of Little Gems Private Day Nursery from Hannah M (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are so happy with the level of care that our son receives at Little Gems. He has been there since he was a baby and we have never had an issue with him settling in to the different rooms for each stage. The staff have always been so friendly and kind and they listen carefully when you tell them information about your child. He is currently in the toddler room and Brooke and her team are brilliant. He has a group of friends and always leaves daycare happy but tired from all the different activities. He gets excited arriving at daycare. Overall, we are extremely grateful with all that Leah and her staff do.

Review of Clearly Kids Day Nursery Newtownards Road from Helene E (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I love how much the staff cares for the children. You can tell they genuinely are proud of their achievements and truly know each of the kids. This also really helps whenever issues occur, e.g. if a child misbehave, they know each of the kids well enough to know what sort of approach to use to settle the matter in the best way.
I also really enjoy the many update we get on the app.
There are many nurseries closer to my home than this one, but I love it so much, I happily drive that extra distance.
All the staff are always very positive and my son talks about the staff at home as well. Wants to bring them with us for holidays etc. Just goes to show how much the kids likes to be there as well.

A big thank you, from a very happy mummy.

Review of Clearly Kids, Lisburn from Alla B (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. From the very beginning, the staff have been incredibly caring, patient, and attentive. Our daughter found the transition quite difficult at first, but the team went above and beyond to support her settling in. They took the time to understand her needs, reassure her, and build her confidence at her own pace, which made such a difference.

Now, she absolutely loves going to nursery. It's clear that the staff genuinely care about the children and their wellbeing, and that gives us real peace of mind as parents.

We're so grateful for the kindness and dedication. We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe and happy place for their child.

Review of Kids@BT9 from V F (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Excellent nursery and pre school. I have had two children attend since March 2021. The eldest has moved onto primary school and the younger one still attends pre school and wrap around care. Their experience at Kids@BT9 has set them up well and prepared them for primary school.

The staff are friendly, approachable and have a great way in each of the rooms. The different rooms stimulate the needs and age range appropriately from baby, toddler and up to pre school.

My children enjoy attending and look forward to going in. Kids @BT9 is very reliable and offer excellent communication. We highly recommend.

Review of Kids@BT9 from Bhargavi J (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
it perfectly balances a professional, high-standard curriculum with a warm, cozy atmosphere.
The Vibe: Housed in charming converted buildings, it's bright, spotless, and much more intimate than a typical commercial center.
The Staff: Genuinely "incredible" teachers who know every child by name and provide the kind of reassuring updates that make a working parent's day.
The Perks: Excellent outdoor play spaces, a private car park (a lifesaver in BT9!), and a 7:30 AM start for easy commuting.

A true home from home environment. I was very happy that my daughter got a place.

Review of Kids@BT9 from M K (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with our experience at Kids@BT9. Our son started in February, and from the very beginning the team put our minds completely at ease. They went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and made sure he had a place in the wobbler room, which we really appreciated.
We were amazed at how quickly he settled in. What could have been a difficult transition turned into a smooth and positive experience and he now goes in smiling every day and happily waves us goodbye, which says everything.
The staff are absolutely wonderful. The girls in the room are so caring and attentive, and we love receiving regular updates and observations throughout the day. It's so reassuring to know he's in such a nurturing, supportive environment.

We're truly grateful for the care and dedication shown to our son and would highly recommend Kids@BT9 to any parent.
