AFTER-SCHOOL CHILDCARE

Our After-School Childcare service provides children with a safe, welcoming and engaging environment after the school day ends.

Children can enjoy a variety of supervised activities, opportunities to learn, play and socialise, while parents have the reassurance of knowing their children are being cared for by a dedicated and experienced team. Our aim is to create a fun, inclusive and supportive environment where every child can thrive.

The after-school was created in 2024. It is recognised by Tusla and supported by the NCS to help busy parents and growing kids alike.
