Thank you

December 2023 Passage
Merry Christmas to you both. We want to all the staff that do an outstanding job every single day taking care and nurturing our daughter. I don't have the words to express how much it means to both of us. The staff are absolutely incredible.. so kind, gentle, loving and supportive and it means the world to us knowing she is in such a caring environment.
So thank you.

Thank you to each and everyone of you for everything that you have done for my son, in his time in Giggles. You have all played a huge role in his development and the love and care that you have given him was so appreciated by us. He'll really miss each of you, especially his teachers this year Ciara, Ampa and Chloe who have been amazing with us in helping prepare him for big school and by really focusing us on areas where he struggles so we can work on these with him.

To Everyone at Giggles, We are finally finished after 10 very very happy years. It is very bittersweet for us as we are going to miss ye and all the fab artwork etc from down through the years. But ye have done an amazing job of nurtaring and caring for our 3 children and preparing them for all their future adventures. They have made lots of great memories and friends in their time in Giggles and we couldn't be more grateful to all of ye

July 2023 Passage
Thank you for helping me when I was diagnosed coeliac. Thank you for helping me learn to play with others, count 1 to 20, learn what my favourite colour is (blue). Thank you for teaching me "there are 8 planets in our solar system" about caterpillars and butterflies. I have lots of fun.

August 2023 Passage
Hi All
I have been meaning to send this all summer!
We just wanted to say a massive thanks to you all for supporting our family over the last years. I can't quite believe that both our children have graduated and in big school. Time Flies
Again thank you so much from both of us and the kids, we really appreciated all the flexibility you allowed us and the last minute days when I rang for when my work cropped up.
Best wishes from us all.

Wonderful performance from a bunch of very happy children, thank you

To All the Team at Giggles, A sincere thank you for all the wonderful childcare, concerts, positive experiences and activities over the last 4 years!
It is hard to believe that we first landed here our little boy was 10 months old and now in a flash! he is off to "big School", another new adventure. He is certainly better prepared than I ever was!
It is hard to express our gratitude for all you have provided. We had very good days at Giggles and for that we are so grateful. Best Wishes
August 2022 Crossbarry
Thanks so much to all of you for all of your care, love and teaching or our 3 boys over the past 5 years. They will miss Giggles so much but will treasure the memories!!
August 2022 Crossbarry
Thank you all for being so excepting of our little boy and his "needs" and for always going above and beyond to make sure he had the best experience in Giggles

June 2022 Crossbarry
As another family say goodbye to us, this was the lovely message they left us!
Both of our kids went to Giggles in Crossbarry over the past 4 & a half years and I can honestly say the Giggles team and facilities are outstanding in every aspect. From day one, the manager made us feel extremely welcome. Communication has always been excellent - the phone is immediately answered and paperwork is always proactively taken care of without me ever having to think about it! All of the staff across all of the different groups are so caring and attentive and practically the kids as their own. When we had our daughter, the team gave our son a cuddly toy to give to his new baby sister, which is just one example of how they go above and beyond in everything they do. One of my favourite things (besides all the fun, thoughtful artwork that used to come home) was receiving a written summary of the kids' day at pick up (food, naps & nappies & any points of note) as well as the brilliant end of term reports. Each term the staff provide a full developmental breakdown on your child's progress in physical, language, cognitive and social abilities. The fact the kids receive wholesome food all day is invaluable. The hours the creche from and to is also another major convenience. If you are looking for a creche you won't find a better one - Giggles ticks all the boxes you could think of and more. We'll miss the creche and all the staff massively!! Both my husband and I are forever grateful to the whole team for the absolutely fantastic start they have given to our 2 kids, thank you so much for EVERYTHING - we'd have been lost without all of you!
June 2022 Crossbarry
To All great staff staff in Giggles, Thanks so much to all of you for all of your care, love and teaching of our 3 boys over the past 5 years. They will miss Giggles so much but will treasure the memories!!
June 2022 Crossbarry
To All the amazing staff in Giggles, Thanks for everything you have done for my boy. He had grown into the boy he is because of you all. He has gained so much confidence and was definitely given the best start at Giggles.
A Present Parent Send this email recently!
When I Chose Giggles it was based on walking around the creche, seeing how happy the kids were, seeing who was looking after them, and how the carers also looked at my baby and smiled at her. My Gut instinct that I had found a gem of a place for my daughter has been right. People don't have that luxury anymore thanks to COVID and masks and restrictions, so when people they trust recommend a creche for their baby it means a lot to them.
Good Evening Giggles team
We will be leaving in a months time (going back to our home country)
That you for all you have done for our little boy - we have seen him grown and change into such a fantastic little boy.
Thank you dearly for taking such wonderful care of him.
Giggles is an amazing school and we will miss it dearly.
To the end of another year! Some of the lovely testimonials received from parents, there were too many to put them all on!
Crossbarry June 2021
To Everyone at Giggles
Thank you all so much for everything over the last few years you are all amazing and we couldn't be happier with the care and support you have given to our little girl, she will miss you all so much.
She talks about Giggles all day and includes ye in her play! I am sure there will be tears over the next while when she realizes she won't be going to Giggles anymore but ye have prepared her well.
Thanks again for everything
Crossbarry June 2021
To all the staff in Giggles,
I find myself extremely lucky to have found this day care centre. For me Giggles have the best childcare facility, making both playing and learning interesting.
Thank you for providing a friendly atmosphere for my son when he can learn and grow. All the teachers and workers are reliable, respectful, caring and fun loving. You are truly the best!!
Please accept my sincere gratitude for every smile you put on my child's face, and for teaching him to be patient, friendly and caring. We cannot thank you enough for all the happy memories our son shared with you throughout your time together. We will really miss you!
Crossbarry June 2021
Dear Bernice, Marie, Norma and all the fantastic team at Giggles,
Thank you so much for all the wonderful years our 3 children had in Giggles.
Giggles has been part of our lives since 2014 so it is bitter sweet saying goodbye. Thank you for
all the kindess, understanding and love you have shown to us all.
Crossbarry June 2021
This family had been with us a long time! Dear Bernice, Marie, Norma and all the fantastic team at Giggles, Crossbarry, we both want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for all you have done for us as a family over the past 14 years. We constantly say to each other that having Giggles for our children's early education has been the most wonderful opportunity for our 4 children. We are so sad that our contact with your amazing childcare facility has come to an end. The children will always have happy memories of the special time they spent in your care. They have been so happy, have learned to make friends and socialize, have been taught so much by such caring and considerate teachers in the most beautiful surrounds, indoors and outdoors. We have always felt that our children were safe and well cared for in a way that couldn't be surpassed.
So thank you again from the bottom of our hearts and we wish you all continued success in the superb work you do the children lucky enough to attend Giggles.
Crossbarry May 2021
"Having used Giggles Daycare, Montessori and Afterschool Services we are happy to recommend them to other parents. Giggles is a professional, child centred and caring service that puts the needs of the children at the center of it's planning and decision making. The staff were consistently courteous and professional in all our dealings with them and our children have many happy memories. Thanks Giggles"
Crossbarry 21st December 2020

Dear Bernice, Marie Norma, Ali, Louise, Tara and all the Giggles Team

A short email to thank you for everything you do, especially this past year and in the last 10 months!
It certainly has not been an easy year and just when you think you've made it: 2020 throws another curveball at you!!
We are sincerely grateful for the part you play in our son's development: he really enjoys his time at Giggles and we love learning through him. You have certainly brightened up our year through all your activities/themes/Christmas concert/Santa surprises and we even have his Santa (zoom) scroll framed at home near the Christmas tree.
It seems already that the New Year may have a challenging start but that said here is to a bright New Year and we look forward to seeing you on the 6th January . I hope you can all enjoy a well deserved break over the next little while to exhale; rest and recharge and spend time with loved ones, where possible.
Keep well and stay safe
.Our huge thanks to you again and respect - ye have been amazing through all of this; adaptable and considerate and essentially the best of a very challenging situation.
Happy Christmas
Crossbarry December 2020 (got this lovely email)

Hi Giggles
It is unlikely that you remember my daughter (of course we did) she attended Giggles from 2015 - 2017. She loved her time at Giggles and we knew at the time what a fabulous facility that it was and how special all of the carers were.
However what I am emailing to tell you is that I honestly believe that I am every day seeing the amazing start that Giggles gave my daughter in early education and the confidences that it instilled in her young personality.
She is a happy, carefree loving confident caring and empathetic little girl who will be turning 7 in a few weeks. I truly believe that Giggles had a fundamental influence in her character and resilence and thought that it was so important to feed that back to you. She has been home from school the past 2 days with a cold. She has happily and contentedly filled her days by entertaining herself with singing, dancing and making her own fun. Her days in Giggles where there was focus on not stacking a child's day with structured activity but rather allowing children to be children have played a fundamental role in helping her to become this character.

Many thanks to all in Giggles your work has a lifelong consequences - I think that it is so important to continue to give you my thanks and feedback childcare workers are not given the credit that they deserve and a service like yours with the staff that played such an important part of my daughters early years.
Passage October 2020

"Our son had been at Giggles since he turned 1 and he is now 22 months. From the first time we visited, we couldn't get over the warm welcome we received and every single member of staff made it their priority to help our little man settle in. After Lockdown, we were obviously nervous about him returning to the group settling but once again everyone at Giggles made the transition a smooth one.
The ladies on the team are personally invested in the happiness and wellbeing or our son and we feel so reassured by their enthusiasm.
He himself loves going out to "school" everyday. He waits at the front door every morning, jumping up and down to go. His language has come on in leaps and bounds in recent months since he as been back at Giggles. Everyday he comes home happily chatting away about his little friends and what he did. Singing new songs every week. The activities they undertake each day are fantastic! Arts and crafts, lots of outdoor play, reading, dancing - so much more than I can manage to fit in at home!
A big one for us is the food that is provided. The food that he eats at Giggles is the kind of thing we feed him at home, healthy balanced meals, fruit and vegetable snacks, all great quality. Stews, soups and pasta bakes are regularly on the menu. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Giggles to anyone, the entire team are fantastic and our son is very happy there"
Crossbarry October 2020 -
Today was my son's last day in Giggles and he had a great time. We are moving tomorrow as my work is taking me away for 6 months or so. Thank you for facilitating us, being obliging and taking such good care of my son. He came on leaps on bounds and his new creche will have an easy time thanks to ye! I will be in touch next year about getting him booked in again.
Crossbarry August 2019 -
Some of the amazing support we got from parents/family members after the documentary on RTE My son loves Giggles and the staff. His development has come on leaps and bounds since he started in Giggles. He is looking forward to going back in September. Keep up the great work Giggles ye are all a credit and ye provide the very best to the children.

My boys have been going to Giggles since they were 6 months olds. I couldn’t day enough about the fantastic team who always do best by them

12 years with children in Giggles and I couldn’t speak highly enough about it! Great team their looking after our precious little ones!
Crossbarry August 2019 -
We are 100% thrilled with Giggles…… our little girl loves her time spent in Giggles and I know her lit brother will love it from January too.
Crossbarry August 2019 -
I just want to send all of the staff in Giggles a note of support and gratitude today. I’d say some of you probably watched in horror at that documentary last night on RTE about a particular creche in Dublin and there is a lot of news coverage about it today. When watching it (I only made it half way through as I got so upset) I just thanked my lucky stars that our children have such a positive , loving and nourishing experience from being part of Giggles. You all do an amazing job with all of the children that come through your doors, treating them as if they were own, making their experience a fun, rewarding and learning filled one. You do a job that most parents would struggle to do everyday with such positivity, a smile for every parent every evening though you might have been dealing with all sorts of crying, cranky, unruly kids all day. I just want to reach out and say thanks to each and every one of you. You all play such a special role in our lives and the lives of our kids.

Many more parents have voiced their say on face book if interested. Also a staff member who has left us had his say, which is nice to hear an inside voice! Sam said Giggles is a fantastic place to work. From the top down the children are put first and there is always a happy fun atmosphere. It is a very child centred facility promoting the children’s interests and facilitating all aspects of their development. The staff are amazing and friendly and I loved every minute of working here.20
Passage Dec 2018 -
Dear Giggles Team, Thank you all for your help this year. We really appreciate all of the team helping us to settle in, especially our youngest boy. We appreciate all your help ensuring he was well taken care of and his dietary needs accommodated. I know most moms are anxious when their baby starts, but we were a little extra anxious and we appreciated your support. Thank you especially to Claire for fielding all the phone calls and being flexible with dates. Thank you to Kelly for settling our baby so well and helping with the bags everyday. Thank you to Trish for ensuring he gets the right meals everyday. We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a well deserved break.
Passage Dec 2018 -
To Marie & Bernice We are really sad to be writing this email, we have decided that as I am going on unpaid leave and then on a career break we will have stop sending my son to you. As you know we have all loved having you as our child care over the last 6 years and we would hope that our two boys will go to you for Montessori ). We want to thank you both and all the girls in giggles from the bottom of our hearts for all the love care and attention that our children has received over the years and we look forward to the boys coming back to you in the near future.
Passage December 2018 -
To Marie, Bernice, Norma and all the fantastic staff at Giggles, Thank you so much for taking such good care of our son over the past 4 years. He was always so comfortable, happy and content at Giggles, which made our lives as parents so much easier as well. He has some great friends and memories from Giggles and still speaks quite frequently and fondly of his teachers. Our little man struggled with communication and speech, and you all went above and beyond to ensure that his needs were met and his development was not impacted – as a result he started school a happy and confident child and settled in quickly to his new routine. We will be forever grateful to you all for giving him such a great start.

Crossbarry June 2017 -
Marie, Bernice Norma and all the wonderful Giggles staff, I just wanted to write a few words to express my thanks for the wonderful care you all provide for my 3 children over the past 9 years (almost!). There was not a single occasion in all the years that gave me any reason to be less than 100% confident my kids were in the best possible care. I credit the early years spent in Giggles to have played a huge role in helping my older children become confident, friendly happy kids and my youngest is following suit.. All your policies and initiatives were so beneficial from the wonderful food Breda provides to the emphasis on outdoor play and independent play. Thanks in particular for being so supportive and flexible in allowing our arrangement this past year. We will miss Giggle Best wishes to you all.

Crossbarry Oct 2016 -
Feedback for you is how happy my little girl is, she cries on Fridays when she is home with me. Also to note that in comparison to the creche we used with our older girl, well there is no comparison. The level of calmness and imagination play in Giggles is outstanding and she is thriving socially and developmentally as a result
Passage Oct 2016 -
Just want to say a big thank you to you and the girls for the wonderful care that Julia gets. She absolutely loves “school” and skips in the door every morning. Thank you for making all our lives a lot easier and brighter!
Passage Oct 2016
Our two love it there and are very happy, as are we. The girls do an amazing job and make it so easy to drop off on those hard mornings when not everyone is happy to be dropped off.
Passage August 2016 -
A Child’s Mom sent this in on behalf of her child, Although you’re not our mother your cared for us each day, you cuddle, sung and read to us, and watche us as we’d play. You saw each new accomplishement and helped us grow and learn, you understood our language, and listened with concern we cam to you for comfort, and you kissed away our tears, we’d proudly show our work to you you’d give the lovest cheers! We know your not our mother, but your role was just as strong you nurtured us and kept us safe, though maybe not for long, we knew someday the time would come when we would have to part but we know a special piece of you is forever in our heart. Thank you so much for minding me, caring for me and loving me, I will miss you all but probably back from Set one after school day a week so no goodbyes just yet.

Thank you to all the Wonderful Staff At Giggles Our 2 children have had an amazing time over the last 18months. Both of them have thrived under your care and for that, we cannot thank you enough. A Special mention to Natalia and Annemarie who settle a very shy little girl into the Baby room – made my transition to work so much easier. We wish you all a fab summer and best wishes for the future
Crossbarry July 2016 -
To the amazing Giggles Team On behalf of both of us, I want to convey my deepest and most sincere thank you for the wonderful experience our 2 children have had in your care. Ever since the first day I walked in the door I knew Giggles was the place for us; I truly believe you know and care for out children at least as well and maybe better than we do. Giggles has been such an important part of our lives and our children’s development we will be forever grateful.

Hi Bernice & Marie As both our girls are entering new groups in Giggles we just want to drop a note to say thank you. Giggles is the first time the girls have been cared for outside the their home and we are thrilled with the service you and your team provide. The activities and the environment are super but most importantly to us the girls are genuinely cared for by affectionate and passionate staff. A special thanks to all who looked after them this past term. We would recommend Giggles to any parent and look forward to the next phase for the gir
Crossbarry March 2015 -
Bernice & Marie I just wanted to give you some feedback about our experience with Giggles. All of your staff are beyond excellent and I think you should be proud of them all. I would just like to mention On staff in particular, to say my son is challenging at times is an understatement but she has at all times been so patient and lovely while still maintaining his respect. He comes home in the evenings and is so proud telling us that (the staff member) said he was a good boy and he tells my mam (his nana) that he is (the staff) best boy. It is a comfort to send my 2 children into Giggles every day because they both love it so much.
Passage July 2014 =
To Marie, Bernice & staff It’s with a heavy but grateful heart I’m writing this card. I cannot believe our “Giggle” days have come to an end Both Calum & Ethan have come a long way and enjoyed every minute of it, and for that we would like to thank you both and your superb staff. We wish ye every success in the future and will always highly recommend Giggles.

Hi Marie & Bernice I just want to thank you and your team for the great care you have given Ciara over the last 2 years. We have seen her blossom and become a very independent strong willed little girl. We have no doubt she has made good memories of her time there and has made nice little friends. Again I must thank you. During her time in Giggles we were always confident that she was safe and well cared for and we never had any cause to worry.
Crossbarry Oct 2013
-“With all the talk of creches in the news this week I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for taking such fantastic care of my son for the last few years. Your staff and the creche are a credit to you both. Anytime we pass your gates, he still cheers with excitement. I had complete peace of mind leaving him in your care. I look forward to returning to Giggles in January with both my boys.” thanks

Thank you so much for minding me, caring for me and loving me, I will miss you all but probably back from Set one after school day a week so no goodbyes just yet.

Thank you to all the Wonderful Staff At Giggles Our 2 children have had an amazing time over the last 18months. Both of them have thrived under your care and for that, we cannot thank you enough. A Special mention to Natalia and Annemarie who settle a very shy little girl into the Baby room – made my transition to work so much easier. We wish you all a fab summer and best wishes for the future

To the amazing Giggles Team On behalf of both of us, I want to convey my deepest and most sincere thank you for the wonderful experience our 2 children have had in your care. Ever since the first day I walked in the door I knew Giggles was the place for us; I truly believe you know and care for out children at least as well and maybe better than we do. Giggles has been such an important part of our lives and our children’s development we will be forever grateful.

To All the Staff in Giggles Thank you for taking care of my daughter from 10months old until now….. when’s she is ready to start school.

Hi Bernice & Marie As both our girls are entering new groups in Giggles we just want to drop a note to say thank you. Giggles is the first time the girls have been cared for outside the their home and we are thrilled with the service you and your team provide. The activities and the environment are super but most importantly to us the girls are genuinely cared for by affectionate and passionate staff. A special thanks to all who looked after them this past term. We would recommend Giggles to any parent and look forward to the next phase for the gir

Bernice & Marie I just wanted to give you some feedback about our experience with Giggles. All of your staff are beyond excellent and I think you should be proud of them all. I would just like to mention On staff in particular, to say my son is challenging at times is an understatement but she has at all times been so patient and lovely while still maintaining his respect. He comes home in the evenings and is so proud telling us that (the staff member) said he was a good boy and he tells my mam (his nana) that he is (the staff) best boy. It is a comfort to send my 2 children into Giggles every day because they both love it so much.

Bernice, Marie and all the staff Thank you all for your hard work and kindness you have shown us in the last 5 years. Pearl & Felix have loved attending Giggles and we are so appreciative of the wonderful start you have provided them.

Hi Marie & Bernice I just want to thank you and your team for the great care you have given Ciara over the last 2 years. We have seen her blossom and become a very independent strong willed little girl. We have no doubt she has made good memories of her time there and has made nice little friends. Again I must thank you. During her time in Giggles we were always confident that she was safe and well cared for and we never had any cause to worry.

-“With all the talk of creches in the news this week I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for taking such fantastic care of my son for the last few years. Your staff and the creche are a credit to you both. Anytime we pass your gates, he still cheers with excitement. I had complete peace of mind leaving him in your care. I look forward to returning to Giggles in January with both my boys.” thanks
