Could not fault this nursery. The staff are considerate and kind and go above and beyond to bond with and care for the children. They are fed such healthy well rounded diets and have engaging child led activities every day. My daughter loves going there so much and misses the environment dearly when she is off. They have supported me as a parent as well and I can not thank them enough. I completely trust this team with my child and have recommended them to many of my friends.
Thank you for your kind words. We love to see your daughter's fashion choices each morning, the more sparkly the better! We feel privileged that you have chosen us to take care of her.
During the settling-in period, the girls were brilliant at settling both of us! Sending pictures and updates and being so kind and reassuring.
One of the things I especially love about Hullabaloo is that it has such a family feel - the girls know all the children's names and you can see they take such a keen interest in each and everyone of them and their interests/likes/dislikes. They all go above and beyond in their care of the children at Hullabaloo. Both myself and my husband couldn't recommend it enough.
Thank you for your lovely review. Your daughter has us all wrapped around her little finger and we love being such an important part of her early childhood. Thank you for choosing us!
My son has been going to Hullabaloo since September 2023 when I returned to work. He absolutely loves it and is straight in the door every morning with hardly a look back! The staff are all incredible and he has developed a lovely relationship with them. They provide a wide range of activities and play and he is very well fed! I would highly recommend Hullabaloo to any parent!
Thank you for your lovely review. It has been a pleasure to watch your son grow from baby to little boy in the time he has been here so far and we love to watch him explore new things daily.
Thank you everyone at Hullabaloo!
Thank you for your lovely comments. We are proud to know that you think of Hullabaloo as your little one's second home - that's exactly the sort of care we strive to provide and we are delighted to be a part of his journey!
My worries were very quickly settled once I saw all the care he was receiving from the staff and the fun he was having with other children his age. My youngest boy has just started his Hullabaloo journey this month and I have 100% faith in the staff when looking after him as they have already shown fantastic care towards my oldest and have definitely helped in shaping him to be the amazing wee character he is today!
Thank you for your kind words. We feel privileged to be looking after both of your boys and love to watch your older son in his 'big brother' duties! They are both a pleasure to look after!
My little girl has been going to Hullabaloo for two years and it's nearly time for her to start school now. Both of us were new to the area and I was obviously apprehensive about my daughter starting somewhere new. Hullabaloo has a wonderful family feel and in no time at all my daughter felt loved and cared for. Within a short while, she would look forward every morning to going there, and she quickly established strong relationships with the staff and her little play companions. I had complete peace of mind with my child at Hullabaloo - I always knew she would be looked after, engaged with, entertained and well-fed! At pick-up time she would always be full of stories about what she got up to that day. I couldn't recommend Hullabaloo enough - we will both really miss it and all the brilliant staff, sending my daughter there was one of the best decisions I have made for her.
Thank you for your lovely review. We feel privileged that you chose us to care for your daughter and we have enjoyed watching her grow. We wish her the happiest of times at 'big school' and hope you will both come back and visit!
I have had my daughter in Hullabaloo since January 2021 and would highly recommend their nursery to any parent. The staff make this nursery great - they have been so caring and supportive to my daughter who was so shy when she first started. She has built lovely bonds with all staff and has blossomed and made lots of friends who will continue with her into her chosen primary school. I can't thank Hullabaloo enough for being so supportive of me as a parent, they always put me at ease and I trust them 100% to provide outstanding care for my daughter. If they offered after-school care, I would have no hesitation in keeping my daughter with them. Thank you, Hullabaloo, for everything, and my daughter will miss you a lot when it's time to leave.
Thank you for a lovely review! We have been privileged to look after your daughter over the years and will be very sad to say goodbye. She has given me some original artwork recently, which I will always treasure. Please come back and visit!
Our two children attend Hullabaloo and have done so for the last four years. The staff are lovely and as it is a small nursery they have got to know both our children very well and know their individual needs. This gives us full confidence leaving them in their care each day. They organise daily activities including arts and crafts, and have a theme, shape and colour of the month which has aided their development. Our eldest child attends the local nursery school and Hullabaloo have been great with drop-offs and pick-ups, and flexible when the nursery school times change. Both our children love attending Hullabaloo and we would highly recommend it.
Thank you for a lovely review! We enjoy being involved in your children's growth and learning and nurturing the strong sibling bond that is developing between them.
My daughter started at Hullabaloo when I went back to work, she was only 6 months at the time (now 13 months). It was obviously very hard for me to leave my little baby but within days I felt completely at ease thanks to the amazing staff. I can tell they all genuinely adore and care for her so much. My baby loves going to nursery there and loves all her carers. This has made my return to work so much easier and I am so grateful for them. They also have so many activities and educational themes every month. I would definitely recommend them!
Thank you for a lovely review Charlotte. It's hard to believe it was 7 months ago when your wee one started with us and she has come on leaps and bounds. Her wee expressions are hilarious and I do my best to capture them for the newsletter each month!
There is a varied range of activities, so something for everyone. The outdoor play area is brilliant all year round. The daycare regularly have little outings and visitors in to entertain the children.
We would happily recommend Hullabaloo. Both of our children love their days in daycare, they both run in without looking back! I know that my son has made lifelong friends and I will be forever grateful. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words. Your children brighten up our days with their smiles and stories - your son is great craic and we love them both to bits.
My daughter has a severe nut allergy and I feel that she is totally safe when in the care of Hullabaloo, which is the most important thing for us. My son is also a very fussy eater and thankfully the staff have made accommodations to ensure he never goes hungry! I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone.
Thank you for your lovely review. We love to see your two coming in in the mornings and having a great time! We are also now experts in nut allergies!
Hullabaloo is a wonderful nursery, the smaller setting gives it a more family feel and means the staff get to know all the children really well and understand their individual needs. The girls are all excellent, they provide so much care, affection and attention to the wee ones and work closely with the parents, communicating each day on how the day went and what the kids got up to.
They provide a good variety of healthy snacks and lunches each day, as well as daily routines and activities to aid development such as arts, crafts and music. The outdoor play area is a fantastic space for all ages in the nursery.
We would happily recommend Hullabaloo to anyone considering a daycare setting in the area. Both our children loved their time at Hullabaloo and our family will always remember our time here with big smiles! Thank you!
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so proud to have been such a big part of your children's early childhood and we have many fond memories.
With staff is very kind and well trained. The place is clean and spacious and the kids love coming back every day as they learn new exciting things and you can actually see a difference in their development almost every day. Couldn’t recommend it enough.
Thank you for your kind words. Your wee one always has something important to tell me each day!
The staff are warm and welcoming and genuinely care for all of the children. They have numerous available activities suitable to the age of the child. The nursery always keeps in contact and is flexible to your individual child’s needs, whatever they may be. We always get a debrief at the end of the day during handover, and it is clear the staff really care.
Our 1-year-old daughter has really thrived at Hullabaloo - she loves to try new foods and we feel she has really developed socially by being surrounded by other children. She’s often tired out by the end of the day and we know that is a result of all the fun she has had during the day at Hullabaloo!
Thank you for your lovely review. We will miss your daughter terribly but wish you all the very best with the big move!
Our daughter started at Hullabaloo Day Nursery when she was 15 months old. At the beginning, we struggled with the separation, her and us but the girls were amazing in understanding. We had settling-in days in which we were able to become accustomed to the day-to-day process of dropping off our girl and letting her get familiar with the setting and new faces. Since then, she has flourished significantly. She loves going in with the girls in the mornings to play with her friends. She has become really confident/independent in all aspects and even enjoys a wider range of food. The staff are incredible and listen so much to our wishes for our child in terms of nap times etc which gives us so much peace of mind (easier bed times!). I always recommend Hullabaloo to anyone who needs childcare in a personalised and family-oriented environment.
Thank you for such a lovely review. Your daughter is such a joy to be around and it has been amazing to see her flourish. We are privileged to be able to play a part in her childhood and watch her form her first friendships.
The staff are brilliant all the girls are so caring and really get to know the children so well, they gave my daughter a book and record init sleep times/nappies etc and always give an update on how your child’s day has been when you collect them. The manager is lovely and always puts the children's needs first. She works with you to accommodate every child with any special requests or needs, unlike other nurseries my older children have attended in the past. The care here is by far the best! I highly recommend Hullabaloo Day Nursery!
Thank you for your lovely comments. We are so happy to have been chosen to look after your daughter and we love to see the excitement on her face when she tries something new!
My wee man is having so much fun! Thank you to everyone.
Thank you for your lovely review! We love to see your wee man's smiling face in the mornings - he is such a joy!
My little girl is almost 2 years old and just started Hullabaloo Day Nursery in February 2023. This was a big change for us all, but in the short 5 weeks she’s been here we have already noticed positive changes in her willingness to try new foods and being a little more confident around others her age. I feel she’s settling in well and the staff have all been wonderful at putting us at ease during the day with updates and pictures. All the girls are brilliant at handovers at both drop-off and pick-up times.
Thank you for your kind words. It's a pleasure to look after your daughter. She's coming on leaps and bounds.
My son has been attending Hullabaloo Day Nursery since October 2022 and he has settled in so well. The staff were amazing in the beginning to reassure us and calm our nerves by giving updates throughout the day of how he was getting on and sending photos. They were also more than happy to follow the schedule we had for him until he was ready to progress to their standard schedule. We can tell he just loves attending and is happy going in each morning.
Thank you for your kind words. We love seeing your wee one in the mornings - he has such a lovely smile and a twinkle in his eye!
Children are really well looked after, with their individual needs well catered for within nursery routines. Staff work well with parents and provide detailed updates about children's well-being. We have been using this nursery for 18 months and are very happy with it.
Thanks so much for your kind words. Your wee one is practically staff - she keeps us all right in here!
