Children's entertainment in Dublin

“Last year we hired Rua as our entertainer for our post-church drinks reception, and he surpassed all expectations. The guests were thoroughly impressed by his performances and are still talking about him to this day. He's an absolute pro, with a great personality to match. He made our day extra special and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. We highly recommend booking him if you need something amazing!”

“This was our second time to have NGL for a birthday party, the kids loved it & had a ball again. From the initial booking, to the host on the day it’s all super professional & easy. I will definitely be using them again & highly recommended to anyone. Thanks guys”

“Absolutely loved the karaoke machine, hired for a teenage birthday party. Fantastic service by Robbie.”

“Super cool and really unique escape room! Hard to beat this level of immersion when you're on an operating boat that you can interact with. We did both of the escape rooms. I preferred SOS because of how flawlessly they integrated the boat into the puzzles and the story. Some of the puzzles were a bit standard lock and key, but there were enough unique elements to keep it fresh! Convicts was also really amazing, but unfortunately we didn't get the full effect because we only did it with 2 people. Essentially, you're supposed to be racing against another team to escape and each team is in a similar room. I wish that when we booked, we were given a heads up. Maybe I missed it, but it just forced us to book 4, which is standard for a lot of escape room minimums.”

“My little Girl loves attending Miss Ali Stage School. She talks about it all the time. She practices at home and I'm delighted she enjoying it and learning all the time and her confidence is growing in other aspects of life with thanks to attending Miss Ali.”

“Prompt response, quality services regarding the delivery and collection. The bouncy castle that we hired was amazing and kids had a lot of fun. Highly recommended”

“Had a wonderful experience with Links with my toddler. The manager is amazing and so is the staff. These guys know what they’re doing. The food is great and fresh. The carers are experienced. Never imagined my son sleeping alone in a crib but they managed to get him do that as well.”

“Our twin boys are so happy in Giraffe Childcare Harcourt. The staff and management do a great job looking after and educating the children and the boys love it. The staff have been excellent during the pandemic as well and the centre has been really well managed during that time.”

“Padraig in the Kumon Dundrum Study Centre is so invested in improving your child's English and Math fluency and skill levels that it may as well be his own child! I have never experienced a tutor who cares so much and is so passionate about education. The Centre is extremely well-run, value for money and an investment that pays-off both in the short- and long-term. The team are friendly, professional, efficient and experienced and you can be sure that your child is getting one-on-one attention at every lesson. My child developed a love for Maths through Kumon, having started off with a fear of it!”

“We booked Genie Mackers for our daughters 6th birthday. Fairy Amy arrived and totally exceeded our expectations. Children were entertained from start to finish. She clearly loved working with the kids and kept them all engaged throughout. She was incredibly patient and overall a super nice person. Thank you Fairy Amy for making lovely memories for our daughter x”

“Very good. My wife is from Texas and we wanted some country music that wouldn't be well known over here. Mark played the lot and my wife and her family were very happy. Good music and everyone enjoyed themselves”

“Great place wonderful people”

“A very valuable and appreciated local community facility for the residents of Blackrock and its hinterland.”

“Bright Sparks is an exceptional Montessori. Lynsey and her team are the most talented, amazing and kind teachers I have ever come across. My children have adored going to school every day and the standard of teaching is second to none. Communication between teachers and parents is always excellent. Next year our 4th child will be starting at Bright Sparks. I can’t recommend highly enough! Thank you Lynsey and team!”

“We have been incredibly happy with the care and attention our daughter has received at Giraffe NCI. This creche came highly recommended to us by a colleague and we would have no hesitation in recommending it to other parents. Many thanks to all the lovely staff here.”

“My baby girl has been attending this creche for year and a half and she has been enjoying her time there. I also found it very good. But since Marta took over as a manager I've noticed so many positive changes that I decided to leave a review =) I have never come across more dedicated person than her! She has introduced so many fun things for the kids: different celebrations throughout every month, different plays, family events (when that was still possible) just to name the few. Even with all the current restrictions there is still such a wonderful energy and most positive vibe in the centre =) Marta and her staff have such a great approach to all those new rules that my baby girl doesn't seem to be bothered by them at all. I'm really amazed. And to top it all off, there is absolutely incredible and constant communication with the crew on anything to do with my child. I can’t really think of a better place for my baby girl =) It gives me comfort knowing she is in very good hands especially taking current circumstances. Thank you so very much to Marta, Allie, Jay, Priscilla, Mia and all the rest of the staff that makes it all that magic happen =)”

“This is the place for quirky and original artworks for children! I have given these prints as presents more than once now and absolutely love their humour and originality while supporting a small independent business. Good quality bright prints that have been loved by the parents and the little ones alike.”

“Went to a viewing of The Crucible here. The venue was well laid out and it was a novelty to have the option of table service. It would definitely be nice to return for a live event to see what the difference is in layout and sound. Options at the bar were decent, particularly with the gins on offer. Bar service was a bit slow but the bartender remembered my order so bonus points there!”

“Loved the hot chocolate. It was actually really cool that the hard chocolate was stuck on the spoon and it melted with the hot milk. Very clever. The croissant was delicious as well. I would comeback.”

“This spot is stunning, special and has a lovely atmosphere since from the entrance to cine rooms. Seats are very comfortable and screen is pretty much big with a quality stereo sound. Absolutely fascinated for this spot and I highly recommend for everyone. I will for sure come there often.”

“Oh my God food amazing! I had chicken on flatbread . My only complaint was my tummy wasn't big enough to fit it all in...but I tried!! Yummy!”

“Honestly such great fun! The kids had the best time and didn’t want to leave. The staff were so fantastic and they really made the day. We honestly had such a great day. After 3 years of no parties she really couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate this year! Thanks Go Quest!”

“Just had my kitchen table and chairs delivered by Cian and Cormac , was given a delivery time between 2 &4 , which was great because usually your told between 9 & 6 with other stores. Lads arrived at 3, put my table together, made sure i was also 100% happy before they left. Would highly highly recommend Dolphin Furniture, from the help to chose when i arrived at the showroom, to delivery”

“Thank you Paula for a great birthday party today. The children enjoyed the arts and crafts, games and of course the disco dancing! The face painting was a great surprise too. I would be happy to recommend this party type for both boys and girls. Best wishes. Olive”

“Good range of beanbags and at reasonable prices. The website is pretty detailed but it's great to be able to go in and have a look for yourself. I found the staff helpful and not pushy.”

“This is by far one of the most amazing Furniture stores in Meath. Head out to Trim . I always pick up something here for the home. The customer service and the product is super. And my favourite Mindy Brownes is stocked here too. Thankyou to Antony and Maura who always look after me so well and to all the staff members who greet me so well everytime. Love this store.”

“One of the best community centers in Dublin”

“It's a great adventure for both kids and adults. The Zipit guys and girls are so friendly and helpful and they add that extra dimension to great few hours. Top spot to have on my doorstep.”

“Great classes. Our teacher (Tony) is brilliant with the kids, they love the classes. You can see the progress the kids make, with some games & songs thrown in too.”

“NPAS is the perfect school. It has almost every element of performance on offer, with multiple studios allowing you and your child to pick the ideal class or combo of classes. I've watched my 3 daughters blossom in confidence, agility, and imagination. The high standard of teaching is evident in the kids performances on the Olympia stage, in their exams, and in the numerous opportunities NPAS will open up to your child. My daughters got to perform at Dublin castle for the Easter 2016 celebrations, and they also had their minds blown shooting RTE juniors TV show 'How to do everything". But most importantly they have FUN. They bounce in like popping candy every Saturday. Give your child a gift for life, even if it's just the drama class, because this will aid them in interviews, presentations, and in everyday life.”
