    Going to start making a few calls today around Trim for our eldest who's 3. We've used a childminder until now. Might go as far as Kiltale.

    Any particular recommendations? Or perhaps more importantly any discouragements feel free to PM me.

    Little folks academy in Knightsbrook. They are excellent there.
    Couldn't praise then enough, excellent facilities and loads of parking

    Our little one was in the Belfry - it was a full time creche at the time, not sure about now. She loved it there, the staff were excellent with the kids. She had no problems at all settling into school which says a lot about the pre-schooling I think.

    Thanks for the posts. I'm working off a list which I think was compiled in 2013 so some numbers haven't yielded a response

    I didn't see the Belfry listed so I'll add them to my list now to check out. Cheers.

    Just checked that list, it is now listed as "Trim Montessori Centre" - that's definitely the one as I recognise the contact listed.

    Ah very good thanks. We looked at a house in that estate a couple of years ago when we first started looking in Trim and I know exactly where that creche is.

    Went to an open day for Theresa's and visited one or two others. I left a two voicemails for the Belfry but didn't hear back.

    We've registered him in the Little Folks Academy. It's on the right side of town for us and it seems like a well run spot.

    Might still check out the Belfry and one other place but we feel a little weight off the shoulders at least. The lady that ruins the Red Door Montessori was booked up and had a waiting list which got us a little panicked at the start of our search.
