Food & Nutrition

Healthy Habits Start Early

At Tír na nÓg we have introduced Healthy Ireland Smart Start. This is a pre-school health promotion programme led by the HSE, to ensure children in pre-school settings are supported to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviours in early childhood. This programme consists of six units including Health Promotion, Emotional Well-being, Physical Activity, Oral Health, Health & Safety and Nutrition.

Our objective is to support children’s development of lifelong healthy eating patterns, skills, behaviours and attitudes. We have developed and implemented a healthy eating policy, using the Food and Nutrition Guidelines for Pre-school Services, which will ensure the integration of healthy foods and drinks into meals, snacks, curriculum, celebrations and play.

A Word From Vera & Niamh

A Warm Welcome From Our Team

”As creche owners we fundamentally believe we are only ever as good as our team and at Tír an nÓg we have wonderful teams. We have a remarkably low staff turnover and when we are recruiting, we carefully select employees for their warm interaction and natural manner with children. Respect for the child is at the very core of our philosophy, and in turn this teaches children to respect each other and to respect the teaching staff. We lead by example and have the highest regard for our team. Our work environment is relaxed, friendly and happy, while always maintaining a professional air. Staff know that they have our support and parents know that our door is always open to listen to their concerns or suggestions. As a partnership we are friends first, our individual skills compliment each other and throughout the years that we have worked together we have never lost sight of our original goal, to provide quality childcare in a loving, happy, stimulating and safe environment.“

Both of my children have had the benefit of the wonderful care that Tir na nÓg provides. We couldn’t ask for any more and it’s become a home away from home for the boys.

I cannot rate Tir na nOg highly enough. My daighter loves it here. The staff are so kind, caring and understanding. Tír na nÓg is like a home from home for the children. The creche is a lovely size which adds to the home from home feeling.

I highly recommend Tir na nOg , my daughter attended this creche years ago and she is still talking about it. My son is attending the setting at the moment and he is always happy there . As a parent I feel that it is very important to choose a setting where our children feel valued, cared and loved and I know that in Tir na nOg the staff is absolutely brilliant .

My daughter Ilinca attends the second year of creche.. She loves her teachers and colleagues, and for me if she likes them and feels good, I am happy too.. she learns new things every day, she is enthusiastic about activities.. For this reason I'm opting for afterschool next year.. Thank you for your care and involvement in training our children as personalities in the future.
