    Hi All

    I am looking for recommendations for a pre-school in the Celbridge/Maynooth area. Something that just does a few hours a day.
    I was ideally hoping for an Irish speaking one. My daughter will be just over 2.
    I will be living in Castletown in Celbridge.

    also, what would be the kind of cost for this, and do they run on the same schedule as schools with holidays etc?

    Thanks so much.

    Creme Egg.

    There are none but when she is bigger there is a really good Naionra in Maynooth and an irish montessori that do the cúpla focal with the kids too.
    The price is based on how many days a week you need it.

    I hope it's ok if I post up an inquiry here since I'm on a similar page, only thing is it's not an Irish one that I'm looking for.
    My son will turn 3 in April, so I'm thinking it's time to get him into a playschool for September. He's refused potty training for months, so I'm hoping he'd be fully trained by then. Since he's never been to a creche before, only the likes of soft plays, his social skill with other kids needs much developing. This is also a reason I'm not too sure if Montessori is ideal for him.
    Apart from Happy Days mentioned above, can anyone recommend me a good suitable playschool for him within Castletown/Main St area?

    Edit: I suppose anywhere in Celbridge should be ok

    No one?

    Well does anyone at least have experience with either Kiddies Choice or Giraffe? Think I've narrowed down to these two, and would appreciate any thoughts on them.
