very disappointing in this centre lately. All the time when I come into the centre the girls are smoking in the front of building then go in and work with our childrens. I sometimes try to talk with centre manager and she gets easily distracted and talks to others. If I need to talk to you I would like you to listen to me then I can leave.

My children both started at this centre aged 4 & 5months respectively. I was so nervous and unsure on my daughters first day that I was crying while saying goodbye. It was the first day of the year with not much orientation before starting. You only needed to ask me about going back to work and I would burst into tears on you. I worked in the industry at the time and knew about the great name of the centre but I was still nervous.

The staff treated my baby girl like a princess.

This centre has become a home away from home for our children and even me through being involved on the committee. My daughter has this year moved on to school but loves to visit occasionally to see everyone there and pick up her brother.

And my son? He loves going to "creche" each day and learning more and more every day. He's coming home on average with a new song each week. The staff at the centre have helped both of my children be the bright, happy, contented children they are today.

Thanks girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I placed my son in to Deer Park Children's Comm Centre at the age of 8mths and was very worried about leaving him for the first time, as it had always been only him and I. I was blown away by how much of a family centre it was and how at ease the staff there made not only me but my son feel. His level of development has been significantly increased due to this centre and I am extremely happy dropping him off there every morning. I have since had a second child who is more than a handful at at 11mths enjoys also the interaction with the staff and children of our day care centre. I would not hesitate in recommending this centre to anyone who asked where they can find a good day care centre. The staff are brilliant and look after my two angels as if they were their own. Thanks girls for doing a great job with my sons'

I put my first child into the centre from 8mths of age. The staff were so friendly and warm and my son loved the time he spent their. They looked after the kids like they were their own. It is a smaller centre which gave it a lovely family feel to it. I would recommend it to anyone!
