What Our Families are Saying

Our daughter has been in Willow House Woodbine for nearly two years and even though we moved out of the area six months ago, we’ve continued to do a daily commute so that she can stay there!
From the moment I visited Willow House I knew I loved it. It feels more like a home than a lot of the other creches I had been to see. The girls take such good care of our daughter that I know she’s always in safe and secure hands.
She has also really flourished in Willow House and we’re so grateful to all the girls for that because they’re the ones taking care of her everyday.

Claire

Thanks a million for all the love and care you have given to Sophie & Lucy over the past few years. The girls absolutely love you to bits and I am very lucky to have sent them to such a wonderful creche!

Niamh – Willow House Childcare Newtownpark

Sofia has attended Willow House Woodbine for over two years. She has the biggest smile going to creche in the mornings. We looked for a long time to find a suitable creche for Sofia and we are absolutely delighted to have found such a gem as Willow House.

Alison and Aga and their staff provide amazing care and love for the children. Their imagination in terms of stimulating and educational activities for the children amazes me.

I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Deirdre

Looking for childcare is always a difficult task, and it can be so hard to know if you have made the right decision. However, having had all three of my children cared for at Willow House Woodbine – I soon realised I had made the correct choice. Willow House Woodbine is a small crèche, but I found this made the transition easier for my children. The building is just like a ‘normal’ house, and doesn’t seem daunting for little people! Because the crèche is small, all the children from all the rooms mix with each other, and when it comes to moving rooms (from baby to wobbler and wobbler to toddler etc) this makes it so much easier for the children. The staff are all very caring and positive, and made the crèche experience an interesting and safe one for all three of my children. In particular the Montessori teaching is exemplary, with a Montessori teacher who makes learning fun and who has a wonderful and caring approach to the children.

Willow House is a lovely, homely crèche, and I would recommend it for all children of preschool age.

Trudy

I would highly recommend Woodbine Childcare and it’s dedicated team. Staff are lovely and it is evident the children’s welfare and happiness are always their highest priority. Woodbine Childcare is very well run, provides nutritional meals and is always spotless. They focus on child development but clearly with the childrens enjoyment at its core. Our son is very happy & settled and it is very reassuring to know he is so well cared for. We will always be very grateful to Aga and her team for taking such care of him.

Pamela

We have used Woodbine creche since 2012. We have had two children (full-Time) who have attended Woodbine creche from baby room all the way to Montessori room.

My children have always been well cared for and kept busy, singing songs playing games outside or simply having quiet time with some book reading.

I would highly recommend Woodbine creche if you are looking for a home from home safe environment while you’re at work during the day.

Audrey

I love Willow House Woodbine because they meet the needs of my family. The staff are great. Their curriculum encourages exploration, good communication skills and engages in fun-filled learning activities from the time they are an infant.
