We also charge a one-time, non-refundable deposit of €100. Parents may also be asked to pay something every 3 months for activities such as cooking.

This new moment in your children’s lives may be an exciting, but stressful event. We have therefore tailored our services to meet the needs of our new guests. For the first two days, all children accompanied by their parent/guardian will be welcomed into the childcare for approximately two hours to help them get used to their environment, new friends and carers. On the third day the child will be encouraged to spend two hours without the company of the parent/guardian.
