September 13, 2024 at 12:24 amSuch a kind atmosphere at Start Smart Daycare. The personnel are all truly approachable and accommodating. My young lad has been attending for the past year and I have just enrolled my young lady. I would definitely endorse.

September 26, 2024 at 2:52 pmIf there were ever any problems they phoned me straight away. My young lad has made friends and developed a great relationship with the team that look after him. My boy has developed greatly since joining Start Smart one year ago. I was worried about leaving him at first but the crew were excellent and arranged for him to complete an induction. I am extremely delighted with the service provided.

December 8, 2024 at 5:46 amAfter having such a positive period with Start Smart with my girl (who’s now six), I enrolled my baby young lad when he turned six months old. The contact from them is excellent, the internal childcare centre itself is beautiful, bright and welcoming (don’t be put off that the early‑years hub is located in a busy, built-up urban area!). I would, and have wholeheartedly recommended Start Smart. The absorbing curriculum is wide and varied and themed with ability and age appropriateness considered in the planning. The crew including management are exceptional; no nonsense, no fuss, caring and encouraging. In my opinion, they go far beyond the call of duty in terms of providing day attention for the little ones. You can’t put a price on peace of mind and this is what I get from the crèche.

Prefers them than me! Even now if I have a day off work and tell him he doesn’t need to go to the daycare after school he tells me he would prefer to go there to see the after school room head and assistant and all his friends! the owner is a parent herself so she knows what makes a good daycare. Lol great facility and the crew are so personable and the Manager is great! Well done team and thank you for taking such great support of my little one 🙂 He is 5 now and still there and he absolutely enjoys it. Cannot endorse them enough. My young lad joined the nursery setting when it first opened and he was 6 months old.

April 1, 2025 at 4:04 amWhen there are any concerns regarding her health the crew phone immediately and also follow up with me as necessary. Children are placed in rooms depending on their age. Like every kid, mine doesn’t always want to go willingly and those are hard days for a parent. The crew always call me to reassure me she has settled. As a first time mother, I was extremely nervous about leaving her but the crew were fantastic. I would have no hesitation in recommending this childcare centre. When it was time for my little one to move to a new room I became apprehensive again as she had bonded so much with the personnel in her old room as had we. But my angst truly quickly disappeared when I saw how much she enjoyed the new space. My little one has been attending since she was about 20 weeks old. My journey so far is the personnel are consistently good in every room. When I pick my girl up the team make me feel almost as if she has had 1:1 care for the whole day, they are so kind, fun and attentive.

June 10, 2025 at 2:05 pmThey have also catered for and helped manage my wee boy’s allergy which has been a great relief. To know that they are delighted and protected where they are is just everything. I couldn’t ask for any more. As a first time mammy to twins, I was anxious about my return to work and entrusting the care of my babies onto somebody else. The first day I walked through the doors I felt a lovely atmosphere, full of pleased faces from team and little ones alike. My twins settled into their room without a hitch, despite my fear that it might be too hard on them. Both of them have come on leaps and bounds after almost 6 months at Start Smart and I can easily say it was the best decision I ever made to send them there. The personnel are excellent and always have extensive feedback to send home, which I appreciate since I work late and can’t pick the kids up myself. When it’s a ‘school day’ the kids run to the door to go see all of their friends which is lovely. They were only used to close family taking care of them in my absence.

June 13, 2025 at 11:06 amHuge thumbs up from our girls and us. Both our daughters have enjoyed the best start in life at Start Smart Daycare and we couldn’t advocate them strongly enough. The crew really cared for and about our girls and were always professional, cheerful and attentive. The sites and building are purpose built and the opening hours and fees were most agreeable.
