My daughter has been attending since she was 9 months old. The staff were so reassuring, as I was so nervous leaving her for the first time. She loves the place. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. My daughter has learned so much from the staff too, social skills, new games, etc. She always comes
home super happy so I know she is enjoying herself there and I look forward to her daily updates.

I am so grateful to the staff at Clearly Kids. He’s well taken care of, emotionally and educationally. Staff are kind, warm and very good at what they do. My son enjoys going in, says hello to everyone that works here and they all have time for him to stop to say hello and have a little chat.
In his
nursery room, the girls always have some sort of sensory activity planned, they get the kids outside to play as soon as the weather allows it and I look forward to the lovely pieces of artwork at Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's etc.

Very happy with the nursery. Facilities are spacious, clean and have plenty of toys.
My little one has been in three groups so far and I can confidently say that the staff really care. I have already recommended this nursery to several friends who had babies in the last year.
The only minus I can
think of is that kids have their outside shoes on in the room where they play.

Clearly Kids is a lovely nursery. It is a lovely bright and colourful environment that feels very professional. It is always extremely clean and tidy and very well cared for. More importantly, though, the staff are lovely, they really care for the children and really encourage their development. Our
daughter loves it there and enthusiastically runs in every morning.

Clearly Kids, Lisburn is an amazing nursery. My son has only been attending for 6 months and his progress in 6 months has been outstanding. He loves going, settled straight away due to the nurturing, friendly staff and management. They offer a safe environment for my son and an abundance of learning
through play activities, the outdoor space is the best and they play outdoors a lot which I love. Couldn't be happier with my choice of daycare.

I could not fault the nursery or the staff in any way, nor would I want to. Our little girl loves the place and has come on leaps and bounds since starting. From starting to form words to her little dances and songs, she loves every minute of her days in Clearly Kids. The staff are incredibly friendly
and she has loved them all since she started. Knowing she is in safe hands whenever she goes in and will be learning as well as having fun gives us a great sense of satisfaction. I cannot speak highly enough of the place and its people.

My child loves going in which tells me all I need to know. The staff know her needs and are affectionate with her. She eats a good healthy range of food, they do varied activities and they go outside.

I cannot fault Clearly Kids Lisburn. It’s clean, staff are friendly, happy and very helpful, my daughter loves the girls in her room. They keep you well informed and have great facilities. The food is made on-site and is good, healthy, nutritious food and the kids love it.

My daughter started Clearly Kids at the beginning of this year. I was very anxious about leaving her as she is very attached to me and finds separation difficult. I am really pleased that she has already formed a really strong bond with her room leader in particular and the whole team know her well
and are so good with her. Any staff member I have dealt with has been warm, friendly and caring whilst also being professional. The facilities are lovely and the outdoor play areas are fantastic. It is much easier to leave my daughter knowing she is in such good hands.

My little boy has been attending Clearly Kids Lisburn and absolutely loves it. Took a while to settle in and the staff demonstrated professionalism and compassion throughout the whole process and continue to provide this level of care. Clear communication with staff and the app is a great feature also.
Feel so reassured leaving my little boy in a nurturing and caring environment while I work.

I could not be happier with the level of quality of care that we get from the staff, they go above and beyond for the well-being and development of the children. I honestly know that without a doubt, our child has developed so much directly because of the time spent in Clearly Kids Lisburn, he has come
so far and has the best habits and surprises me every day with something new he has picked up and learned from his time here. The team are so good at notifying you about any little thing that has happened and all the activities your child has gotten up to throughout the day (which there are always many) and they are so attentive to any special requirements of our wee one. It is not possible for me to recommend any higher the brilliance of the team and overall quality of Clearly Kids Lisburn and we’ll continue to use their service right up until the sad, sad day that they are no longer required.

The team at Clearly Kids nursery in Lisburn are brilliant! They make me feel my child is in a safe environment, which allows free play and exploration by the children. The ratio of ‘teachers’ to children is fantastic and creates a very nurturing environment. The facilities are lovely and clean and spacious.
My child is very happy here and they eased her transition into nursery perfectly, allowing her time to settle in at her own pace, giving her one to one time each morning for the first few weeks to settle. I can’t recommend this nursery enough. Thanks to the manager and the whole team for their hard work and kindness.

Clearly Kids, Lisburn is a very friendly, home-from-home facility with excellent, professional and caring staff. I have two children who attend on a daily basis and they love going in every day. The artwork, drawings, daily updates and photos of my children are fabulous ways of showing their development.
There are numerous little treats for the parents at drop off and pick up throughout the year. All greatly appreciated and very thoughtful.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

Incredible nursery! They cater for every need we have. Children are always taken to play outside any opportunity they get, it's a delight to see the arts and crafts brought home that have been done that day! The team leader in the wobbler's room and her girls are a credit to the nursery! they really
go above and beyond to make sure my child and I are comfortable, communication is amazing and it's clear to see by the smile on my child's face at hometime how much she loves being there.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.373)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.373) out of 10 for Clearly Kids, Lisburn is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 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 4.661 for Clearly Kids, Lisburn is calculated as follows: ( (183 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.661
  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 4.712 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Clearly Kids, Lisburn is based on 17 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 = 3.925
    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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.787
  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.
