With so many different options available, choosing the right childcare provider is often quite a difficult decision to make. As parents, of course, we want to make the best possible choice for our children.

Based on the positive recommendations from friends, we decided to send our son to Scooters Crèche in October 2015 when he was 21 months old.

At that stage in his life, our son was quite shy when introduced to any new environment. The team at Scooters welcomed him with open arms and through their sheer dedication, patience and caring, our son has blossomed into a confident, sociable and talkative child.

Each team member is diligent, caring and supportive to children and parents alike, at all times. The highest hygiene standards are consistently adhered to and regular steam cleaning takes place. The children are fed nutritious homemade meals every-day, which includes healthy treats and snacks…they even get to bake on a Friday!

In Scooters Montessori, learning takes place in a structured and fun way and our son has developed various skills including arts, crafts, baking, singing, dancing, rhyming, numeracy, literacy…he also has a “cúpla focail” now!

Attending Scooters has given our son a fantastic start in life and he is more than ready for primary school this September. As an added convenience, there is a school bus available between Scooters and Carraroe National School. We are delighted with this service which will enable us to continue sending our son to Scooters After School Club.

It is obvious that all of the children are being cared for in an excellent, healthy, happy, safe and secure environment. We are absolutely sure that we made the right choice for our child.

Go raibh míle maith agaibh Catríona, Mike agus na cailíní!

We couldn’t recommend Scooters highly enough we are so happy with the way our daughter and son are being looked after.

Catriona and the staff are wonderful. The care and teaching that is given by all he staff is great and if it is Montessori you are looking for or full day care / part time / After-School care, you couldn’t find better than Scooters

Our daughter has epilepsy and special needs and Catriona and her staff have helped us get everything we need for her to help her develop and fulfill her potential.

Scooters is exceptionally clean and comfortable, with excellent equipment for the childrens’ development.

If you are looking for childcare in the area, definitely check them out !!!

There are so many great and positive things about Scoters Creche and its staff. First of all, it offers a really “home from home” atmosphere and my 3 children are very happy to attend it, in fact most evening they don’t want to leave!! All the staff are very friendly, supportive and professional. I am confident that my children are well looked after and having a great time while they are in creche. I would highly recommend Scooters to all parents looking for the best childcare facilities.

All the staff are always pleasant, patient and very able with all the children. They creates a caring, engaging, and fun atmosphere with the right amount of discipline with the children. They really get to know each child’s personality. All parents are treated just as good as the children and it is a pleasure dropping off and picking up each day.

“ Catriona has incredibly high standards for childcare child centred development and learning, health and safety and recruitment”

 

–  Denise Canning

 


I’ve been meaning to write this review for ages. My four children have attending Scooters crèche since it opened. Two of them currently still there from young babies, now aged 6 and 4. It is a fabulously run crèche, run by Catriona who is a trained nurse, no one panics when your child is sick which is very reassuring.

Catriona has incredibly high standards for childcare child centred development and learning, health and safety and recruitment. Her staff are fantastic ,loving ,fun caring teachers and carers, they genuinely care about the children in the crèche where there is lots of hugs and kisses for them. Scooters has full commercial kitchen with a qualified chef on every day. Food that is given to the children is all homemade and very nutritious and to make it better, all the kids love it!Scooters has very spacious rooms for kids, from the baby room to the after school room the rooms are bright, exceptionally clean and very well organised with excellent equipment for the children’s development there is always activities going on in Scooters, whatever level your child is at.

I have also noted that Catriona’s staff are encouraged and are consistently training in childcare qualifications so not just Catriona but all her team are up to date and ready to assist in all aspects of childcare.My children ask me on a Sunday evening “is crèche tomorrow” and you should see the smile and their faces when I say “yes”. I highly recommend Scooters crèche, I did look at others in the area and none even came close to the quality and support you get at scooters. I am very comfortable and confident leaving my children in their care and know that they too are very happy.

“ Our 2 girls, Eva and Isabelle (now 20 months and 3 1/2) have been in Scooters Creche since they were both 6 months old and we have never looked back”

 

–  Jim & Emer Sheridan

 


The minute we stepped foot into “Scooters Creche” back in 2010, we knew that this was the creche for our 6 month old baby girl Eva. The building itself is warm colourfull, safe and very clean. The staff are warm and friendly. We recieved a very warm  and natural reception from Catriona & the girls, who are so approachable and easy to talk to. There is a very positive and happy feel about the place. Now our 2 girls, Eva and Isabelle (now 20 months and 3 1/2) have been in “Scooters Creche” since they were both 6 months old and we have never looked back. We can go to work knowing that our girls are in a secure and loving environemnt. They both adore going to creche every day and sometimes it’s hard to get them to leave! They get very nutricious and varied meals and we highly recoment “Scooters Creche”.

Thanks a million for really looking after and caring for Eva & Isabelle

“ The girls are all genuinely interested in the childrens' development and help them grow from strength to strength.”

I chose to send my son, Jamie, to Scooters when he was 6 months old (now 1 year old) because I used to work in Scooters and knew the in’s and out’s of all the rooms and routines in the creche. I am well aware of the needs of children in the childcare setting as I have done the Fetac Level 8, degree in Childcare.

The building itself is a lovely, child-friendly, colourful place, which is kept extremely clean and hygienic on a daily basis.
Catriona and the girls that work there are all very friendly and easy to talk to. Each one takes the time to get to know each individual child and their interests, as well as the parents of the children, so you feel very happy being there.
The girls are all genuinely interested in the childrens’ development and help them grow from strength to strength.

Jamie loves being in Scooters, which is very evident when I drop him off. He can’t wait to get down and play and when I come back to collect him, he is always smiling and doesn’t want to come home, some days.

The home-cooked food that is provided is very nutritious. The children get their taste buds opened up to an abundance of flavours from a very early age.

I would, highly, recommend Scooters to anyone who wants a happy, friendly, place for their child

“ It is spotlessly clean, has a lovely calm atmosphere and the children are happy. Keep up the good work”

–  Clorah Mc Gavigan

 


My son started Scooters in January 2008 and my daughter started in July 2009. Both were 6 months old. Ronan is now attending the afterschool club and Ceola is in the Montessori room.  Both are extremely happy & always looking forward to going to the creche. Since they have started practically all the same staff are there which is a testament in itself. I have always found Catriona & her staff friendly, approachable & are always familiar with the progress of my children. In the 4½ years I have been dealing with Scooters I never had one issue with the place or the staff. It is spotlessly clean, has a lovely calm atmosphere and the children are happy. Keep up the good work.

My 2 children have been in Scooters Creche since they were 3 months old (now aged 6 & 5!). Throughout this time, from the Baby Room, right up to Montessori, they have been cared for in a secure loving environment by professional adept staff.

After School Care now provides them with the environment to complete their homework not to mention the lovely dinners they look forward to every day.

Well done to all the staff and management.

After looking into a number of Sligo Crèches, we started our son, Alistair, in Scooters in March 2010, when he was 9 months old, and have never looked back since.
Catriona and her staff run a facility that is second to none. The atmosphere is always friendly and caring. We know Alistair loves it there.
Every day he is kept busy and when we collect him, we are told of how his day went.
We would not hesitate to recommend Scooters to anyone who really does want the best for their little one.
