Children with additional needs
ADDITIONAL NEEDS:
Unfortunately the Summer Camp cannot cater for any children with additional needs, as we have no AIM workers or SNA’s outside of term time, available at Camps. We have a wide age range of children in the same group, so the child/adult ratio does not cater for additional needs or behavioural challenges. Any booking without prior consultation with us regarding these matters will result in loss of place, this fee will not be refunded.

“My son attended the summer camp and then started after school care in September 2022.
We are so happy with the care that he receives.
He comes out with a huge smile every day.
Children of all ages play together and it builds great friendships between different class groups.
In the summer camp he made some beautiful things in arts and crafts.
Typically he comes home covered in dirt, big smile and a large appetite after lots of fresh air.
Exactly what I want from an after school care. Thank you.”
Katie O’Brien, Midleton, Mum to Ross
Our four children attended for Preschool, After School services and Summer Camps.
Each one of them bounded in the door each day with excitement and expected anticipation of the fun and enjoyment they would experience while there.
It’s like a home away from home with Marlene and her colleagues always ensuring the boys were safe and happy.
We were always grateful that our boys had the opportunity to attend as they each have they own positive memories from there.
Yvonne & Robert Fitzsimmons, Midleton
“Our daughter absolutely loves going to preschool here.
She is so excited to see her wonderful teachers and great friends each day.
It’s a special place that encourages growth, fun and learning for our little ones.
We love to see the gorgeous artwork and to see first hand the incredible effort that goes into bringing to life their teaching through art, festivals, plays and little excursions.”
Aoibhinn Twomey, Midleton, Mum to Ava
As a Mum of four, my eldest who is eleven down to my youngest three year old who will start in September 2023, have all attended here.
It is amazing, the staff go above and beyond to make the experience so enjoyable.
All mine have been so happy and had so much fun.
It’s a really holistic, child led place and I feel they are great to communicate with the parents.
I would thoroughly recommend Midleton Preschool and After School.
Thanks Marlene, Rosemary, Debbie, Melanie and Caroline.
Amy Heffernan, Midleton
My children have had the benefit of attending preschool, afterschool care and summer camps here and I couldn’t recommend highly enough.
The team always identify and encourage each child’s passion while consistently inspiring confidence and putting kindness at the heart of everything they do.
They provide an exceptionally caring and nurturing environment and my children always look forward to their time spent there.
I am so grateful to Marlene and her team at Midleton Preschool, Afterschool and Summer Camp.
Jackie Brookes, Midleton
Over 12 years the service provided to us has been of such a high standard, and like a home from home for our three boys.
The outdoor and indoor space is ideal for all ages and their individual personalities.
Management and staff are experienced, professional, friendly and adaptable to the needs of us as a family.
Don’t think twice about choosing this school.
Sharon Parkinson, Midleton, Mum to Harry, Max and Jack
Your teachers gave my daughter Sylvie the most fulfilling preschool experience, enhancing her love of nature and make believe.
Now she attends after school and it is like her second home.
Marlene and her team are wonderful, and their warmth, sense of fun and spontaneity make everyday an adventure.
We couldn’t recommend it enough!
Alison Gleasure, Midleton, Mum to Sylvie
My eldest son has completed his two years in preschool and flourished in his time there. He is now availing of the after school programme.
My twins are in their first year and to see how far they have developed in half a year is remarkable, they come home happy every day.
Marlene and her team of teachers are just amazing with the children. The kids love going into them and their friends each day, learning songs, developing skills and just having fun.
There is so much open play and room for their imaginations to grow, both indoors and outdoors.
The range of activities and the effort put into organising arts and crafts, baking, and different events is wonderful to be part of, as well as a great focus on the outdoors and sustainability, learning how things grow, planting seeds, and then pulling carrots and even making soup!”
