Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children attend Bella Bambinos Day Nursery in the baby room and in pre-school. The staff in both rooms are fantastic with a wide range of activities planned to interest and develop the children. The babies are well attended to and on an individual level and there is the right balance between
education, fun and discipline/learning right from wrong in preschool. There is a feeling of genuine care for each of the children from the staff.

Excellent childcare facility for my very outgoing and energetic two year old. The nursery staff are excellent and make a real effort to engage the children in informative play. My daughter really enjoys her days in nursery and happily skips in each morning. I wouldn't recommend it enough.

My daughter really enjoys her day's at Bella Bambinos Day Nursery. I put her into the nursery as she was very quiet, shy and reserved. We have had a complete transformation. She is so chatty, inquisitive, outgoing and really responsive. I can't thank all the girls enough. She learns so much more than
I would be able to do with her at home and eats like a champion.

Bellas is a wonderful day nursery. I find it has a warm and welcoming atmosphere which I feel is most important when leaving your child. My son enjoys coming to Bellas every day and has learnt so much. I feel that all the staff really go that extra mile to provide a happy and settled environment and
do so much with the children. I feel so privileged to have a place for my son here at Bellas.

Both my children love going to Bellas. I have no concerns at work as I know how well cared for they are. Their individual opinions are always listened to and staff always show compassion and kindness. I have been using Bellas for 5 years now and can not recommend it enough.

Bella Bambinos is a great nursery and all the girls make the kids feel at home when coming in. The nursery takes the children on days out and for walks.

I have been very pleased and happy with Bella Bambinos. The staff are excellent, have good insight, imagination and time for the kids. They introduce them to wonderful opportunities. Communication is excellent and they are never too busy to talk about my child's day.
Lots of opportunities that the
kids are offered that they really enjoy. They cater for my little ones and her dietary requirements without issue.

Excellent nursery. Staff form fantastic relationships with our children aged 2.5 years and 9 months. It is a home from home. rooms are bright, colourful and clean. Rugs are changed regularly and always. There is a fresh smell of scented candles upon entry into the main room. Both I and my wife work
full time and are very happy with the care, attention and education our children receive. We commute 20 miles a day to ensure they receive the Bella Bambinos treatment!

Review from Nuala W (Mother of Child) published on 1 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A home from home for our children! 2-year-old toddler and a 6-month-old baby - they love it. The way the nursery is divided into age appropriate rooms to make the transition much easier and less overwhelming as kids are amongst their age groups. There are two areas for babies (crawler/ immobile babies)
and one area for walking children.
There's waddlers, then toddlers 1, and then an older toddlers room. There is a never ending volume of arts and crafts, baked good arriving home on a regular basis. Staff are fantastic, kids are very happy. I would highly recommend it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been in the pre-school room for a year and really enjoys it. After spending nearly 3 years at home with my son I was very nervous about leaving him, but the staff in the pre-school room put me so at ease. It is lovely to see that my son has made such great friendships with the children and
the staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Bellabambinos to any of my friends. All staff are very friendly and nothing is a bother to them. My son is very content at nursery and I now wish I had kept him at Bellas for his pre-school year as the care, love and attention is second to none.

My son has recently started in pre-school. He previously attended toddlers so was familiar with the environment. He has settled well due to the friendly, caring staff and enjoys his time here.

Bellas is great for our daughter, she has made lots of friends with the staff and other children. She really enjoys the games and trips, especially the gymnastics. She also has a good choice of food in Bellas which makes it easier for us at home to make food which she likes.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have attended Bella Bambinos from the baby room right through to after school. Staff in all rooms are very friendly and appear genuinely interested in the children. The facilities are inviting, colourful and stimulating and the children do an excellent range of age related activities
which encourage their growth and development. You also get good reports at the end of each day to tell you what the children have done and eaten and regular progress reports once they reach pre-school.

My son has been attending this nursery since they were first able to take him in as a baby. He is now 5 and I can honestly say in those 5 years I have had nothing but praise for the staff and the facilities here.

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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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: ( (180 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 180 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 15 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 15 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.
