Day Nurseries Owned by Rascals Day Nurseries in County Down

could follow everything that was happening. What I really appreciated were all the fun activities, the positive energy of the staff, and the cosy environment. We were truly happy there and already miss Rascals now that we have moved to another place. I highly recommend this nursery school to anyone who has the opportunity to attend! The flexibility and opening hours are excellent, but above all, the knowledge and attitude of the staff are hard to find anywhere else!

and will definitely send our next child here.

set out for the children every day were well thought out and so much fun! The manager was so helpful with anything we needed to ask. The nursery is very clean and excellently run. The food offered is varied and healthy while being appealing to the children. Would recommend this nursery to any parent!

in that development.
The manager and her team are absolutely amazing - our son loved every one of them. He had the same wonderful staff throughout his 3 years, which gave him a real sense of stability and comfort. We were also really impressed with the meals provided. The food was always healthy and balanced, and our son happily ate every bite!
Communication was excellent, and the staff were always approachable and ready to help. We especially enjoyed checking the updates and photos on the app - it was such a nice way to stay connected to his day.
We're so grateful to Rascals Balmoral for helping shape our little boy into the amazing person he is today. Thank you to everyone at Rascals!

boys confidence soar since he's started attending.
My little girl has an allergy and I have found the care and communication around this excellent. Recently they both came home with an Easter treat. An allergy friendly option was sent home with my little girl, which meant a lot to us, they are really inclusive.

care they received. There wasn't the constant turnaround of staff that there appears to be in some day cares and there was a high level of organization I felt informed and also listened to for example, if there was a change in routine I needed staff to implement. After a natural settling in period, the twins ran in and never looked back for me (even though they attended part time). They were happy to be there. Whilst it's pricey, I have no hesitation recommending Rascals.

grow and thrive in ways I couldn't have imagined.
The activities and learning opportunities they provide are both fun and educational, allowing my son to explore and develop. It's clear that the team is dedicated to fostering each child's individual growth, and my son has made incredible progress since joining.
I'm so grateful for the peace of mind knowing my son is in such capable hands. He absolutely loves going to nursery (his work) every day, and it's wonderful to see how happy and confident he is as a result of the care he receives.
From a communication point, all queries are always dealt with straight away, and the app is updated regularly.
Keep up the great work!

at Rascals show genuine care for the children and this is apparent every single day.

the quality of food provided by their own in-house chef - everything was made from scratch. My son now attends and has settled in very well. I'm sure he will enjoy it as much as his sister!

(07.30-6 pm) and food is made on-site, which was also an added bonus for us!
Thank you everyone in Rascals!

make all the children feel like it's a second home couldn't recommend anywhere else.

a decision. After meeting the team and seeing the facilities, it was a no-brainer that our choice was Rascals. I couldn't recommend the amazing team enough. During every drop off I felt at ease and confident leaving my daughter for the day, knowing she will be completely taken care of while I work. We are sorry to leave but would recommend Rascals Balmoral (Upper Lisburn Road) to anyone!
A massive massive thank you to all the staff that looked after my daughter.

shown why they are rated 10/10. From the baby room right up to preschool the staff were incredible and really went above and beyond with making every day engaging, fun and safe. They were always so accommodating when it came to us adding an extra day when an emergency popped up etc. We now have another son at nursery stage and the experience has been just as positive with him. Highly recommend 10/10!

Her development came on hugely as soon as she started, both physically and verbally. The staff are all so caring, we had 100% trust that she was safe and happy while in their care. They always keep the children busy with fun and educational games and activities. We were always delighted at the artwork she would come home with for all the big holidays. They also really make a big effort to keep the parents informed of themes and activities each month. It's truly a wonderful environment for your little ones.

team here enough. If only they could stay there forever.

with a great big hello in the morning and my reason for picking Rascals was that it’s long-established which is very important when choosing somewhere for your child and plenty of great recommendations from friends in our baby clubs we attend and the family app they run is 5star with updates of what he doing throughout his day and photo uploads that puts me at ease when at work that my son is having a great day. I feel reassured leaving him.
