Review 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 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.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Clearly Kids since she was 10 months old and is now in the toddler room. She loves the place and the staff all know the kids really well. I love getting to see the updates through the day on their App with photos showing her activities throughout the day. She eats a great variety of food as well. Would really recommend

Review 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 from Gillian C (Mother of Child) published on 27 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Having only moved rooms a few months ago, I couldn't be happier with how my child has settled in. The staff have been amazing with the transition. They are always so welcoming/friendly and always have lots of fun activities planned. They are great at keeping us updated with observations and daily updates.
I love collecting my child and hearing her stories about who she played with that day, what activities she did and hearing the new songs she has learnt on our journey home!
Recently we started potty training. The staff have been great with encouraging my child to sit on the potty and following the same methods we are using at home.
If ever we have an issue with anything, the staff are very approachable and always happy to listen and resolve.

My child really enjoys nursery days, which definitely takes away the mum guilt of going to work!

Review from B M (Mother of Child) published on 27 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with Clearly Kids. From the very beginning, it's been clear that this is a nurturing and supportive environment where children truly thrive. Our daughter is always so happy to go in each day, which speaks volumes in itself.
What really sets this setting apart, though, is the incredible team. The relationships our daughter has built with the staff are so special. They are genuinely warm, caring, and attentive, and it's clear how much they value each child as an individual. Knowing she feels safe, loved, and runderstood gives us complete reassurance.

We are delighted to have chosen Clearly Kids for our daughter's daycare and would not hesitate in recommending them

Review from V I (Mother of Child) published on 27 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a first time mum, choosing a day care was a big decision for me, but I couldn't be happier with the experience we've had. The staff have been absolutely amazing putting my mind at ease. They are so warm, caring and attentive which has made the transition much easier for both me and my daughter.
I really appreciate the daily updates I get sent through the app. During the day, I would receive a photo and small insight to what she has been doing. It is so reassuring to see how happy and settled she is and what she has been up to.

Overall, I'm grateful for the care and support they provide. The staff go above and beyond and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Clearly Kids Newtownards Road.

Overall Experience
Love the nursery and my son loves going everyday, he loves the staff and all his wee friends he's made!!
His speech has came on so so well and I truly believe it's from having time to interact with kids his own age in the nursery.

100% would recommend to anyone in need of childcare! Kids are well fed, well played all day with updates which I love.

Review from Peter V (Father of Child) published on 26 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I can't say enough good things about the team at Clearly Kids. We've had our son at this nursery since he turned 1 year old and the staff have been brilliant since day one. Our little one is always welcomed with a smile and comes home with a smile on his face as he tells us about all the fun he had at nursery and playing with his friends. The nursery has a curriculum it works towards and always has a variety of learning opportunities for the kids. Due to its location, outdoor facilities are limited but they do as much as they can with the area they have. Regular updates are provided through an app and we feel safe in the knowledge that our son is being looked after by people who genuinely care and who want to provide the best environment possible for all the children.

Review from Danielle M (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 2 year old has been in clearly kids since he was 8 months old and he really loves it. He runs in the door each morning and I can go to work content knowing that he is being so well cared for. He has SEN and is going to speech and language at the moment and his room leader and the manager have always made sure to check in to see if there's anything more they can be doing to help. He's a fussy eater, but they always make sure he gets something to eat at lunch, he's not a fan of messy play etc but they still do try to make him as included as possible as they know thats important to me and I'm so appreciative of that. We adore the manager and the girls in clearly kids. Highly recommend this setting.

The staff at Clearly Kids couldn't be more welcoming and passionate about childcare. My little one looks forward to going in and always leaves with a smile on her face. As a first time parent nervous about leaving my child at first the staff were great and kept me posted on their activities and schedule on the app which helped put my mind at ease.

My little one has been in clearly kids now for 6 Months and I couldn't have picked a better place for him to be. He absolutely loves it and enjoys every aspect, from the food, the staff, to the activities during the day. I couldn't be more grateful for everything the staff do! He was once a shy baby who wouldn't leave my side and now his confidence has flourished!

The staff are amazing! My daughter has grown in confidence and begun to make her own friends. She always eats so well and has a varied diet every day. We get lovely photos of how her day is going and a note of how she's been when she's picked up. The staff really take the time with the children, they're doing something new all the time. Would really recommend.

Clearly Kids Newtownards Road is a hidden gem in East Belfast.

Our son has been here from age 11 months and now nearly 3 and he loves it.

The facilities are warm, bright, modern and spotless.

The staff are first class, lovely, caring, attentive, they have been very supportive and helpful of naps and potty training. You can tell they love what they do and always willing to go above and beyond for the parents and kids.

We are so glad we found you!
