My daughter thrived here over the last 8 months. Great nursery, all her needs were met and she made some very good friends there. Updates via the app to help us track how her day was going. Care was seamless throughout.

Banana Moon, Longford has been a part of our lives for the past seven years. Both of our children started as 10-month-old babies and with the care and support they provided our children, they are both ready to take on school. We were lucky that when our eldest finished at the nursery we knew we still
had a few more years left with them with our youngest child. The staff at Banana Moon have always cared for our children with so much attention and love. The nursery has helped nurture and shape our children into being kind and confident, in an environment they have always felt safe and happy. We will forever be grateful for the encouragement you gave our children, the cuddles, you cared for them with and the memories that will stay with us. Nothing will say thank you enough for the nursery being so lovely and accommodating and being part of our nursery journey!
You’ll not only be missed by the children but by us the parents too!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son is going to this nursery for one year and a half already, even at the beginning the accommodation was slightly difficult with cries when I drop him off, but the staff was always incredible with my son and I feel safe but also cared for. If ever I’ve needed help, they are there sometimes at incredibly
short notice to lend a helping hand. The selection of food, activities and toys is great at Banana Moon, and I feel they go above and beyond to make everything child-centred sense focused. When my son is at home, he asks for the girls all the time, calling them his friends. I am so glad I enrolled my son, and there is no doubt in my mind that he has a great time when in the nursery, and I will be very, very sad the day he leaves. Thank you to the team for making my job as his Mum easier! Also, they help me a lot in so many development processes, my son is so independent now (eats alone, dress up alone, give up nappy) and start talking very fast since he starts. A very big Thank You!

Brilliant staff always polite and helpful. Very accommodating when I have had to alter days. Staff are always welcoming at drop off and equally as enthusiastic when collecting my son giving me an update on him before even having to ask. Most importantly they treat my son as if he were their own.

Since my son has started at Banana Moon Longford I couldn't have been happier with every aspect of the nursery. They are so caring and clearly devote huge amounts of time in planning engaging activities. The app is updated so regularly throughout the day which keeps me feeling connected to his experience.
All of the staff are friendly and his key worker is simply amazing. My son loves it and therefore so do I.

My little boy started Banana Moon during the pandemic due to being deployed to the hospital. The staff are lovely and welcoming, and he was able to start as soon as he was ready. Every day he comes home from nursery, he has new stories to tell when looking at his day on the app. The nursery staff have
helped massively with potty training, and even getting a very fussy 2-year-old to try new foods. He is always happy and excited to go to the nursery and cannot wait for the next day. The staff are amazing and always willing to help and see how you are as well as your child. Cannot fault this nursery, and I am so happy I made the choice to send my child here. If anyone is looking for a nursery for their child, I would highly recommend Banana Moon as a safe and fun environment to send any child. Thanks to all the staff!

My little girl has been coming to Banana Moon for two months now. She has come on so much and loves attending! The staff are all so lovely and caring and have been really accommodating for us. I was really anxious about sending my daughter to nursery beforehand - I now have no worries at all! It’s a
lovely nursery, that does the best for the children.

It is really hard to find people who are looking after children, not money but I found them! They are in Banana Moon. My daughter, every day, comes in with a smile and comes back home with a smile on her face and for me, there is nothing more important than her happiness. She started to attend this
nursery around two months ago without the English language at all. I never saw her frightened or scared, and she can already count, recognise letters and using English while playing with her toys! Every day I receive a summary of her day on the mobile app - what and how much she eats, what was she doing during the day, and lots of pictures regarding that. My daughter is happy there and I am happy.

My daughter started at Banana Moon when she was nine months old, her development has rapidly changed and I can see how happy she is daily, she has built amazing bonds with the other children and staff, I am always greeted with a smile and made to feel comfortable. I was anxious about bringing my daughter
during the COVID-19 breakout but the staff spent time explaining their new in place policies and procedures and steps they were taking to ensure the children are kept safe, I have been kept updated daily and from this, I knew my child's well-being and health was going to be a main priority.

I have been sending my daughter to this nursery for the last two years and I have never had a cause to complain. In fact, they have come to my rescue through the whole pandemic accommodating dates and times so that I could go to work being a key worker. My daughter has been well looked after and she

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.858)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.858) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Longford is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.858 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Longford is calculated as follows: ( (279 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 323 Ratings = 4.858
  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 Banana Moon Day Nursery Longford is based on 27 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 27 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.
