Childcare

If you are a parent, or are planning to become one, childcare is a significant issue. Throughout Ireland, rising costs and longer commute times can really limit your childcare options. Things are different in County Waterford, where you will find a range of options to match your childcare needs at affordable prices. Child minders, crèches, playschools or Montessori, all are available across County Waterford and we offer a well-developed network of support services also.

In addition to our safe public parks, well-maintained and secure children's play areas are available in many towns and villages throughout the County. Detailed information is available from Waterford County Childcare Committee on childcare services.
