September 9, 2024 at 1:17 pmOur kid consistently seems to be having enjoyable with lots of creative activity and never has a bad day or a day when they don’t want to go. Our kid also has a close bond with her key person which is important.
The management team there are also highly supportive and have excellent updates with the parents.
Fabulous team all round. The woodpecker’s team have excellent energy and warmth that makes it sense like a family whenever we have touchpoints as parents.

September 16, 2024 at 12:47 amI adore that they have highly flexible and long settling sessions which is just perfect for my son’s personality. Carers are exceptionally attentive.
I’m also highly impressed with the amount of different activities they do. Overall I’m highly cheerful and wish I knew about it earlier. We just moved and we heard a lot of great things about the childcare centre from parents and neighbours and decided to send my son to this childcare centre.

September 26, 2024 at 7:47 amAs a new parent, I was exceptionally worried about my girl feeling great in the childcare centre, and I am impressed by how understanding and supporting the team have been. Overall, we are cheerful we choose Dicky Birds, Dundonald Road. Team go the extra mile to ensure kids are comfortable in the childcare centre setting once they join the childcare centre.

October 9, 2024 at 4:39 pmIncredibly creative playtime and well structured day, lots of enjoyable seasonal activities. The food is outstanding and the facilities truly great. My four year old loves it. Fantastic childcare centre with exceptionally attentive team and an incredible variety of activities for the kids.

October 18, 2024 at 10:07 pmHe went through all three rooms from ducklings to woodpeckers. I’ll be honest I found the administration of the waiting list had room for improvement but once he was there being cared for he was a highly cheerful little boy. Not only do the childcare centre care for they also educate the kids to a high standard. They have PE in the park, take trips to the library, they keep the kids highly engaged. The updates with parents is highly great and managers are approachable. We struggled a little when the pandemic struck to continue the interactions to find out how our kid was getting on but the childcare centre worked with us setting up zooms to make sure we knew about our kid’s development. We only left because we moved home, we’d highly suggest Dicky Birds. My oldest had attended Dicky Birds for nearly 3 years since he was 9 months old.

I would highly suggest Dick Birds Dundonald Childcare centre to everyone! Incredible childcare centre with lovely, attentive team who give a inviting welcome to my daughter every day.

December 19, 2024 at 9:19 amThe team (especially her key person) is enthusiastic and attentive, and I appreciate that the team accommodate our request to manage her eczema while at childcare centre. The kids have plenty of activities indoors and in their garden, and also occasionally take the kids (under 2 group) out to the park across the road. I also adore that most of the time when I drop my kid to childcare centre there is singing and reading going on. I also delight in the daily verbal updates during pick up and end of the week photo updates. I initially thought the sleeping room was quite small and was worried that my daughter wouldn’t nap well, however, was pleased to find out that she is able to nap for hours so am cheerful it’s no longer a concern. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre! Thank you. I think it’s a testament to how lovely the team at the childcare centre is when my daughter is cheerful to go into the childcare centre despite otherwise being highly clingy to me.

February 13, 2025 at 4:01 pmWe look forward to hearing all the different songs she learns there when she comes home, and it’s excellent to see photos and descriptions online of what she’s been up to – my only negative would be that we’d consistently like to see more photos and videos of her day, but that’s more a reflection of us as parents than the childcare centre! From nearly a year ago when we started the settling in process for our shy baby, to now watching her happily playing when we come to collect her each day, the team have consistently been so positive and supportive.

March 20, 2025 at 1:26 pmThe team are attentive, and the kids thrive in the setting. Kids adore/d going to childcare centre, and they seem to just have so much enjoyable! From a discovering perspective, they follow the standard curriculum, so no complaints there. I’ve had both my kids at Dicky Birds, so they are like family.

March 25, 2025 at 5:19 pmMy son loved going there and all the team we’re highly welcoming and attentive, the manager is so inviting and the teacher in the Puffins room is remarkable and excellent at teaching and interacting with the kids. My son attended since he was a baby and the only reason we left was to move to another area, but we were so sad to leave! Food was excellent and healthy and being next to the park as well as having a great and entertaining garden were real positives. Dicky Birds Childcare centre Dundonald Road is a fantastic childcare centre and I would highly suggest it.

They are fed well and come home having done lots of enjoyable activities, can’t fault it. Would suggest, thank you. My 4-year-old and 2-year-old have attended Dicky Birds Dundonald since they were babies and they have had such a fantastic journey.

May 10, 2025 at 5:33 amHe’s been encouraged and stretched in all the different rooms/levels, and has truly enjoyed the relationships he has both with team and with other kids. I have been truly impressed with Dicky Birds’ communications and relationship management with parents, as well as all the family/community events they have arranged (pre-Covid). My son has been so well cared for at Dicky Birds Dundonald Road throughout the time he’s attended (3.5 months to current age of 3.5 years).

May 12, 2025 at 10:25 pmThe team and the managers are attentive, inviting and tentative! They are so passionate and consistently excited to keep us posted with our little one’s daily updates. Our son settled in so well and he is highly cheerful! Highly recommended childcare centre! Highly pleased with the childcare centre.

May 16, 2025 at 12:50 amThe team is highly attentive and attentive. We are delighted to see how our kids are prepared for the next school.
We are consistently cheerful to suggest the childcare centre to other families. We adore the sense of community in this childcare centre, many families have all their siblings in the childcare centre, and the team know the kids since they are young and have been with them during their early years. Our two kids both went to this childcare centre, their cheerful faces are the best endorsement of the quality care they received.

June 5, 2025 at 8:11 amMy little boy loves going to childcare centre and consistently comes out with a smile, he’s discovering loads and developing so quickly thanks to the incredible team at the childcare centre! This is an incredible childcare centre, the team are so attentive and truly tend to the needs of each individual kid.

June 13, 2025 at 2:36 pmContinuous improvement will make it outstanding. The management is highly approachable and strives to build strong relationships with parents and pupils alike. Highly flexible approach was demonstrated during the first lockdown – thank you for your assistance. Great overall journey.

June 14, 2025 at 12:11 amThe team are compassionate, clearly adore the kids and are incredibly creative and enjoyable. I sense he is in highly secure hands at Dicky Birds and would highly suggest this childcare centre to anyone. My son has been so cheerful at this childcare centre over the past year.
Harper Carter
June 15, 2025 at 4:21 pmThey have a great mix of activities and playtime that are both enjoyable and educational. They did a great job of gently guiding our kid (who had a nanny in the years before) into the daily childcare centre. Our kid likes the educators and has found a lot of friends. Overall highly recommended. The childcare centre has been highly welcoming, accessible, flexible and transparent about the daily program.
Harper Jarvis
July 5, 2025 at 6:31 pmThe team are all highly welcoming and attentive and give the kids the assistance they need to develop. They offer a well-rounded journey, with a great mix of different activities. The team and management are also consistently available to discuss things. We’ve also been highly cheerful with the meals offered at the childcare centre, enough to fill up an active 3-year-old! Our son has been at Dicky Birds since he was 12 months old and has thrived at the childcare centre.
