Puddleducks Day Nursery Belfast

Also, the location is really handy as I work in town so can dash over straight from work, then get extra time with the kids as we head home. Fees are fair, and Tax Free Childcare/NICSS are accepted.

Amazing place filled with tons of fun and learning activities , my baby boy comes home happy man everytime , his face lifts up with a smile everytime he sees a staff member, the provide good healthy meals , and take good care of my son and his belongings :)

All the staff make my grandson so welcome and it's a joy to see him so happy .The range of activities are superb and educational.From the outside play area to the inside halls .also the lunch and snack menu is very good .

My daughter is happy, growing, and thriving-and that's a testament to the loving, skilled, and attentive staff at Puddleducks. I would highly recommend them to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive daycare environment.

Puddleducks is an amazing nursery for a child to develop, grow and learn my 10 month old son has came on leaps and bounds already within the short time he has already been at Puddleducks and I look forward to seeing his future progress.

Our daughter has additional needs and the team have been amazing in caring and supporting her as she continues to develop and progress. She notably looks forward to coming everyday and moves to give the team a hug in the morning.

It's great to know that my daughter is being so well cared for annd the team clearly love playing with her annd sending us regular updates. This puts us at ease whilst we are in work.

Thank you team!!

Puddleducks is a wonderful place for a child to build their personalities and learn. Such a pleasant environment with lots to keep the children engaged throughout their day. The staff are warm and friendly and make the children's day by creating imaginative play scenarios on a daily basis. Great place and great location if you work in the city centre

Puddle ducks is a perfect place for kids, the staff is so helpful and caring, there are several activities for kids, which is very helpful in their development, my daughter gets really excited as soon as we enter the building, when I compared puddle ducks with other nurseries I was looking for the nanny vs child ratio, cleanliness, how engaged the kids are kept, how much space the facility has and in all the parameters I found puddle ducks to be way ahead, the only thing I can say they could improve is the timings due to work it is difficult to pick the child before 1715, I have to leave office by 1630 everyday to reach on time, if the time could be extended to 1800 it would be huge help.

I currently have 2 children attending puddleducks - one of which has been there for almost 3 years. From the management right through - the staff are exceptional, welcoming and warm. They make both parents and children feel at ease. Their professionalism and passion for what they do is like no other with key workers assigned to children giving developmental updates, working through major milestones like potty training, movement and speech to support parents and intentional play. Puddleducks is far from a daycare where you drop your kids and go, it is like a second home and both my children are absolutely thriving. Regular updates through the day, an on sight chef who provides menus each week with tasty food (and the kids LOVE), staff are highly trained and noticeably extremely knowledgeable, I couldn't fault it.

Always happy to leave my baby off here everyday. A very welcoming place where everyone seems to care a lot about quality standards. The pricing is very reasonable, and the location is really convenient.

We love Puddleducks and send both our boys here, one with additional needs. The love that is shown to both boys is incredible and the nursery were so understanding with both boys having a tough time settling in.

They work one-to-one when they can with my son with additional needs and both boys have come on leaps and bounds since joining Puddleducks.

The girls all show so much love and care, and its wonderful to see!

Our little girl has been at Puddleducks since the baby room in 2024. She's moved up and has recently just started in the "big girls room" called Cygnets. She really loves it and has been so happy in each room, with different staff and wee friends. I would really recommend Puddleducks to anyone thinking about it.

The Manager and Staff organised a lovely Christmas party for kids and my son totally had fun. I was worried about my son being comfortable in the starting days and the Staff were very kind to my son. In the initial days if he cried, they held him until he settled down. Once when I went to pick him, I saw him sitting in one of the Staff's legs and happily playing :) They also teach kids to sign, have story time, painting and outdoor fun times. Overall it's a happy experience for my son in Puddleducks

I would recommend Puddleducks to any family. The care and compassion that the staff have for the children shine through. I can raise any concerns or queries easily or even just talk about my child's development, likes, dislikes, any issues, with any member of staff. management staff are very available, easily reachable and responsive. Also great food and car parking for drop off. It is so reassuring to leave my child in their care and I will be sending my second child when I go back to work without hesitation.

Fantastic Nursery they have been looking after my baba since 5 months old and I am so grateful for the care and attention they give I have popped in a few times randomly to drop things off and the girls are always being so attentive to the kids weather that's rocking them or playing and engaging with them they girls are all so so lovely and it really comes across like a little family they always keep me informed and they work with you when your baba is at different stages and keep the home routines in the setting it's such a unique setting they give advice and guidance, I was recommended here by few people and I'm so glad I got a space my little one had come on so well and she absolutely loves it as much as it can be so hard leaving them it really helps to know I'm leaving her here cause I know she's looked after and they are straight on the phone and app with any concerns I would highly recommend Puddleducks

My daughter has been attending Puddleducks since she was 11 months old, and it has been such a wonderful experience. She truly enjoys her time there and loves all the engaging activities they provide. The team is absolutely awesome-the love and care she receives is amazing. With great food, a consistently clean environment, and such a welcoming atmosphere, I couldn't ask for a better place for her. Kudos to the entire team of Puddleducks.

Great nursery, extremely caring environment for young children with great facilities. My little girls love it and have settled so well there. Fully recommend for anyone working in Belfast city centre.

I couldn't imagine a better childcare setting, both of my children have attended Puddleducks since they were 9 months old. You just need to look at the kids to see how happy and comfortable they are in Puddleducks. My youngest can't wait to get into Puddleducks and start her day. Even on the days that she is not feeling 100% she puts her arms out to one of the team for cuddles. The chef continuously provides menus that are nourishing, healthy, and delicious. My son was very disappointed that he wasn't offered the same standard when he started school. When a child is sick, they inform all the parents by sending an info sheet giving the signs and symptoms to look out for, also tips on how to ease the child's suffering. Throughout the day they send updates/photos of how the child is getting on and regularly give developmental updates. Their patience and understanding is invaluable. I could not recommend Puddleducks highly enough, they all go well beyond the call of duty.

My little boy (aged 34 months) just adores attending Puddleducks! I was a bit concerned as to how he would settle in as he'd had very little contact with other children prior to starting there but from day one he has absolutely loved it and hasn't looked back since! His speech and ability to interact with others has really noticeably improved in the six or so months since he started and he always comes home happy with lots of stories about his friends and what he's been up to. The manager and the team are so welcoming and always ready and able to answer any questions. When we started potty training they were very helpful and really put me at ease that it wouldn't be a problem for them to assist with it while he was in their care; I feel this has been a significant factor in how successful it's been. With fantastic staff, great, healthy food and all the indoor and outdoor facilities you could ask for, I really can't recommend Puddleducks enough!

My son has been in Puddleducks for nearly 2 years now and I could not be happier. The team are brilliant with the children, diligent, kind and patient in their care but also very considered in the children's activities. He has come on leaps with his speech, his love of play and books and his diet. I could not recommend Puddleducks to parents, who are looking for a nursery, more. My son is very content and happy when there, and I never have any concerns when he is in nursery.
