Parent's reviews



An amazing crèche and my life saver! 🙂 it was hard going back to work during the pandemic and without any family around to help. The staff were just amazing and super helpful! They actually have an app where I get all the updates how my LO is doing. They aren’t overcrowded and super nice - I wouldn’t leave my child anywhere else.
Highly recommended!

I really love this creche. I know that my son is in the best care, has so much fun here and learns a great deal with all the activities they carry out on a daily basis. When I had to go back to work and started looking at creches a year ago, I left quite a few in tears. Some didn't look the cleanest, there were too many kids/babies, some seemed a bit disorganised and I wasn't sure he would get the attention he deserved. Also every creche I visited had a high staff turnover. Every staff member I asked how long they'd been at these places confirmed this. I didn't want to leave my baby some place where he would get use to someone and have to see them go every 6 months! I felt hopeless and heartbroken that these were my options for childcare. When I walked into Saran Wood I had a good feeling. I met Chris and Aisling my first day and felt such a motherly vibe from both. They'd been there for many years (literally all the staff have) and for once I wasn't worrying my baby wouldn't be safe or loved. It really made going back to work easier knowing he would be in a wonderful place like this. I really love each woman there. They're really great people, each and everyone. It feels like I'm leaving my little guy with family. This has to be the best creche, hands down thanks to all the hard working, sweet, amazing staff. I'd recommend Saran Wood to anyone. My son loves it here.
