Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Bella Bambinos Day Nursery since she was 11 months. She settled in immediately and I had no concerns at all leaving her to go back to work. All of the staff are very friendly and communication is excellent. My daughter has learnt so much at Bella and I plan to keep her here until
she starts school. I have already booked a place for the next baby due in February 2025.

Bella Bambinos Day Nursery has been fantastic, from baby room visit through to after-school. Our child has developed leaps and bounds from going here and each and every teacher is an absolute credit. The only nursery we will ever recommend. 10/10, keep it up!

I absolutely loved Bella’s. My daughter started when she was 8 months and my son was 2 years. It was warm and friendly and very accomodating. My daughter was a little bit complicated with foods due to intolerances and they adapted so well. The activities were great and so were the staff. they made my
anxiety about leaving the kids disappear with the care and love provided. Overall i would highly recommend.

I feel Bella Bambinos Day Nursery is a great nursery where my child has been since he was 7 months. He has learnt many skills through being at Bella Bambinos and I feel this is due to the great staff looking after him and the range of activities that are available.

I always had great peace of mind knowing that my 2 boys were extremely well looked after whilst I was at work and seeing that they were always happy after having spent the day in Bella. I always found that there was such a vast range of different activities for them indoor and outdoors that was stimulating
and also beneficial for their development. The staff were always very welcoming and approachable and willing to help. I would happily recommend Bella's to family and friends as my boys thoroughly enjoyed their time there.

My grandchildren have been coming to Bella Bambinos Day Nursery for a number of years. As a grandmother leaving my grandchildren off and collecting them the staff have been very welcoming, helpful and understanding of their needs. My grandchildren go in smiling and leave smiling so that makes me very
happy.

My child is in her final term in senior pre-school and we have been delighted with her progress! Staff have been supportive throughout the year and have provided a high standard of activities in line with the N.I curriculum. The provision of additional trips has been amazing; Salto gymnastics, private
swimming lessons, forest school and the museum. My child has loved her pre-school year and is moving to school a very confident and happy girl.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having not had any experience leaving my elder child in a nursery, when it came time to look at nursery provisions for my younger daughter, I was apprehensive. After our preliminary visit to Bellas, we raced home, wrote the deposit cheque and never looked back. This is an amazing place. The children
are so well cared for, and nothing is too much trouble. After 2.5-years, my daughter moved on to preschool, and we were heartbroken to leave. Couldn’t recommend a better start for a little one.

This is the second child we have sent to Bella Bambinos with no worries or stresses. Bella's have been amazing with both my children. I have recommended to my colleagues that they should send their children here as well. One since has, and loves it. No better recommendation.

My daughter has been attending Bella Bambinos for 16 months now and I have nothing but praise for the staff. She loves nursery and had no problems settling in. Does lots of arts and crafts and enjoys a varied diet. They have a good approach to her medical needs and keep me updated with any changes in
her progress. I am happy with their approach to Covid and have no concerns with sending my daughter there. She loves it! Thank you for everything.

We have been delighted with the standard of care from Bella Bambinos especially this last year during Covid. Staff always go the extra mile and greet the kids each morning as if they are the most important person. It has really felt like a secure environment and huge amounts of efforts have gone into
meeting and surpassing all the Covid standards. Both my children have always enjoyed the full and varied programme delivered by Bellas

I have been using the nursery for seven and a half years and can honestly say the nursery provides excellent care and have recommended the nursery to a lot of people. Being a foster carer for Southern Eastern Trust any member of staff who has had to collect a child from the nursery has commented on
how warm and friendly the staff are.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can't rate Bella Bambinos high enough. From day one my little boy has loved it. The professionalism of the staff, care and attention that they give is outstanding. The staff go above and beyond to ensure that the child's experience is exceptional. There is genuine love, care and respect for each child
and in all instances, the staff are very accommodating to my little boy's needs.
I would highly recommend Bella Bambinos to friends and family and am delighted that my little boy attends it. As a parent, I feel that my child is in safe hands and with staff that he genuinely has grown a bond towards.

I can only say good things about Bella Bambinos. My son started in the middle of a pandemic and as an essential worker, I have never felt so safe and couldn't ask for a better place for my son. Good Covid policies and communication through these uncertain times. Excellent staff making it even easier
to leave your precious little one in safe hands.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Bella Bambinos Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for Bella Bambinos Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (276 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 276 Ratings = 5
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bella Bambinos Day Nursery is based on 23 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
