September 2, 2024 at 5:24 pmMy son has additional needs, which are all catered to. The team are highly attentive, obviously as a parent at first I had truly bad anxiety leaving him as this was the first time I have left him in the care of anyone other than myself or family. The childcare centre has truly taken my son under their wings. I could not be more impressed with the development and social skills he has gained in such a short period of time. And they are fed truly healthy meals. I have found Minibugs to be a remarkable childcare centre.

October 21, 2024 at 11:40 pmHe started childcare centre from baby room and now he is 3 years old and speaking alot. He is highly confident now. All the team is highly welcoming and pay close attention on kids. I must mention they are highly great in toilet training as well. Soon my little daughter starting in baby room as well. Outstanding childcare centre, my son enjoys attending childcare centre and has made some great developments in his discovering.

November 8, 2024 at 9:20 amHighly welcoming, nice people work there. Son is highly cheerful going there. Educators help him with his delayed speech, every day I can hear him to speak better and better. Because he
doesn´t speak and his behaviour is a bit hyperactive I needed to get a short appointment in Minibugs to know something more about my son. I got 45 minutes with my son´s key workers who answered all my questions and gave my many information about my son’s behaviour in the childcare centre. I am highly thankful for these two years – Minibugs is for us highly great choice. Wincobank Minibugs is my son’s current childcare centre (second year) and the educators and childcare centre team all are outstanding at their job.

November 25, 2024 at 12:43 amShe has additional needs and I have been amazed at how this childcare centre has taken its time to help her and get the help she needs.
I have now enrolled my little boy in this childcare centre and I have full self‑assurance he will strive the same as my daughter. Definitely suggest this childcare centre to everyone! My daughter has been attending this childcare centre since 2021 and I must say she has settled there highly well.

January 9, 2025 at 6:56 pmI was nervous that she wouldn’t settle in due to covid she hadn’t had much chance to be around other people and kids. However, they did a excellent job of settling her in and keeping me up to date with how she was getting on. Minibugs has been incredible with my little girl.

January 19, 2025 at 11:05 pmAll the team are lovely, management is perfect there isn’t anything that they won’t do.
My daughter came from a different childcare centre that she hated she settled in amazingly here at Minibugs she loves all the team, consistently cheerful to go I’m more than comfortable leaving her and know she is well looked after and cheerful. The playroom is lovely, the outside garden is too I don’t think there is actually anything that I’m unhappy with. The meals are all freshly prepared on-site. She is consistently spotless after her session. I’d definitely suggest Minibugs. Absolutely exceptional childcare centre so supportive and spotless.

February 3, 2025 at 5:09 pmMy daughter likes to go there from the beginning.
In the beginning, she did not speak English but the childcare centre team were teaching her a lot. They ask me every day how is she and if she needs special attention, they care for her.
I consistently get information about her day, how was she, what she has eaten, what she did etc.
I definitely suggest them. I like the Wincobank childcare centre.

February 6, 2025 at 1:06 amI’m over the moon with the practice I receive, there are a lot of events parents can attend, to keep parents informed and involved in the current goings on of the childcare centre such as enjoyable days, parents evenings, meet the key worker nights, Mother’s Day tea etc. This means I get regular access to his key worker and talk about any concerns I have, and how they address them. Thank you Minibugs. My son is now 3 and attending the 3-5 side of the childcare centre.

March 15, 2025 at 9:06 pmThe childcare centre manager is truly accommodating and will go above and beyond for us. Truly cheerful our little one has settled in so well and he truly enjoys his days here. Team document activities, updates and photos on the app which is excellent and gives us peace of mind throughout the day. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre to others thinking of sending their kids here. Absolutely exceptional childcare centre with excellent outstanding facilities and also truly welcoming team.

Minibugs is a excellent place for kids and I would suggest to anyone. The team are highly expert and provide outstanding service, My son attends Minibugs and is highly cheerful.

March 26, 2025 at 8:18 pmSince being at the childcare centre his development has truly come on more, the team are so welcoming and polite and consistently have a smile when you see them, they are consistently there to listen to me and to my grandson. I’m so cheerful I chose this childcare centre for my grandson I would suggest it to everyone if you want your kid to learn and delight in playing. Minibugs is definitely the best childcare centre to go to take your kid/grandchild. My grandson started Minibugs in September 2022.

April 8, 2025 at 4:24 amTiming sessions are structured towards the setting that paying parents cannot afford. Could not offer a flexible approach due to lack of team and no compromise.
Security concerns in a morning, where team are not present downstairs and babies have to be carried upstairs to be mixed with the older kids. One access door outside allows anyone to walk in as a parent leaves.
App detailing the kid’s day has had full records missing. Late accessing the door on the collection and dropping off times, where the collection time being logged from when the kid is passed over and not when the buzzer is pressed.
Too much of the food is meat substitute based.
Finally after being left from the childcare centre a month ago, fully paid up and notice given. I’ve been sent another invoice for February! This has caused a lot of stress and shouldn’t have been allowed to happen! Concerns over data protection.
Better nurseries locally. Give this one a miss! Does not offer flexibility for the working family.

April 12, 2025 at 4:46 amShe’s taken time to settle, but they’ve helped her so much, and she’s thriving! She adores the girls who are alongside her daily. It’s such a lovely, spotless childcare centre that has everything possible for the kids, and also, the food they offer sounds incredible from the menus! Lots of options, and it changes week by week. My daughter started here in January, and the team are so inviting and welcoming!

April 28, 2025 at 12:53 amMy kid has settled in well since starting at Minibugs in September.
She has gained self‑assurance and is aided in her development.
All team members have been highly supportive, compassionate and approachable at all times and I consistently sense comfortable speaking to them.

May 5, 2025 at 7:43 amMy son absolutely loves it here and he’s bonded hugely with all the team. Minibugs is a remarkable childcare centre with exceptional team.

June 1, 2025 at 1:00 amI cannot thank all the team for all they have done and are continuing to do. They have been incredible, my kid started when she was 11 months old and she has created such an incredible bond with the team! No matter what is going on they are ready to welcome you with a smile. I am so thankful I have sent my kid here and I will also be sending my second when I return to work. They all go above and beyond to communicate with parents so we don’t miss anything.
Thank you all for your hard work! It’s highly much appreciated. The childcare centre has been so supportive over the last couple of months with the birth of my newborn and my eldest kid’s change in behaviour.
