My child minder has now decided she cannot look after my child anymore, and i need to find a creche asap. Can anyone suggest a safe creche in the town area or just outside, that is also reasonably priced Thanking u so much for ur help.

    There is lots of places in town... Jan's Nursery is one near "The Company" hairdressers on Tower hill. Get the number from the phone book or 11850, I don't have it.

    Hi,

    Graceland Creche and Montisorey in Fairgreen is a great place.
    My Daughter is 2 years old and has been there since she was 6 months old and runs into the place in the morning and they have great backgarden to be playing out etc.

    The number is 057 8666862.
    They also have another creche in another part of Laois.
    Grace is the owner of the creche's

    Darling Buds in Maryborough on Mountrath Road. Couldn't recommend it highly enough. Son has been there for 2 years. Think they have place in Garden Village on Mountmellick Road also.

    Rainbow castle is a great creche/playschool, my son is there and I'm delighted with them. My son was going to Graceland in Fairgreen and I have to say I was everything but impressed with them... you can have a look at Rainbow castles facebook and website, they are in Esker hills. :)

    Rainbow castles is brilliant. I had my children in Graceland crèche but I ran from the place. All the girls are lovely but the owner is so rude. All she wanted to do is increase prices and tell me that my children were ill when they weren't. I had an issue with one of my children being spoken to very harshly by her and I kept calling and calling to discuss it but she was constantly in available to meet with me! I finally went to take them out and straight away got a call from her. When we came to no resolution she became very rude and started saying I wouldn't get my deposit back and that I needed to pay her 4 wks notice!!! Stay away if I were you!

    Hi There
    Do you think there is a need for another pre-school in Portlaoise town.
    I would love to hear from Childcare Workers all Parents as I am doing a survey. I would love to contact people to ask some questions.
    Thanks a Mill
