Hatchlings Early Learning Centre Waterford West

Cannot fault the educators in the toddlers and nursery however my experience with my eldest was anything but good. Their was an extreme lack of communication across all domains.On multiple occasions I'd have to follow up about the daily observations they write regarding my sons day and upon suffering a serious injury (broken finger) i wasnt notified until until 3 hours later when they 'noticed' the swelling and bruising. They described a deep cut in the place of the break as a minor graze, and when collecting my son after being contacted he was covered in mud, which placed him at risk of bone infection as advised by the doctor. The educators showed minimal care towards my son and I was required to continue pay during his time absent due to the injury.In addition to the lack of communication and care we recieved their non existent menu is anything but nutritional.They constantly run promotions to attract people to the centre including paying families to write reviews.This is my personal truthful experience, and I cannot speak for any other parents at the centre who may have positive experiences. I would highly not recommended them

Absolutely thrilled with this center. My son LOVES his educators and friends very much. In his words I love my teachers mum". So much genuine warmth and care

Cleos been here 2 years now and I wouldn't send her anywhere else. Raa Raa and the team are just beautiful people and put alot of love and energy into the centre and the children.Cleo adores miss Holly and I love seeing the teachers light up when they see how much the children love hanging out with them ❤️Thankyou always to Hatchlings Waterford West Team!!

My little guy attends this centre. The staff are absolutely lovely, inclusive, and I couldn't imagine a better centre. He's so excited to go to school, he's learning so much, and making so many friends. The rates are affordable, the food made in house is amazing - normally my little guy doesn't try varied foods due to sensory stuff, but he happily eats what's made at the centre.

This Centre is amazing! They offer so many things for us families, including meals, nappies, a cute as pie shirt, drink bottle and matching hat when we start and have fun things on every day. Their cooking classes are always amazing and the children always have so much fun making lots of different things with their teachers. They have amazing chef that cooks fresh food daily for the children, with things like Mexican beef with rice to the all time favourite of spaghetti bolognaise and the fruit and veggie platters look devine!

I have never been happier to leave my little man anywhere but here. The Hatchlings team take amazing care of our little guy. They really do love the kids they are looking after and it makes me so happy that he has such a fun and happy place to be. Cannot recommend this centre highly enough!
