Our service receives support through the Community Services Programme (CSP), which helps community-based organisations like ours to provide essential services and create local employment. Funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development and managed by Pobal, the CSP enables us to offer affordable, high-quality childcare to families in our community, especially in areas of social disadvantage.

To help reduce the cost of childcare, all families are encouraged to apply for the National Childcare Scheme (NCS), which provides financial support based on your family’s circumstances. We also offer the Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programme, which gives eligible children access to free preschool education for up to two years.

We are happy to assist with both the NCS and ECCE application processes and to answer any questions you may have, ensuring you receive the full support available to your family.

Fundraising plays a vital role in helping our service provide high-quality childcare and early education. The funds raised allow us to improve facilities, purchase essential resources, and offer affordable services to families. Every contribution, big or small, helps us create a safe and nurturing environment where children can learn and grow. This is done through organised events.

The School Meals Programme provides free or subsidised nutritious meals to children from families in need. By ensuring children receive healthy food during the school day, the programme supports their well-being, learning, and development.
