"I'm so proud and privileged to say my two daughters attend Kangakare. My eldest arrived to Kangakare when she was 2 as we moved from Dublin from a different crèche. She transitioned beautifully thanks to the kind, caring, loving and experienced staff. My two girls absolutely love Kangakare and run in every day to play with their friends and teachers! Kangakare make such an effort for all the festivities including birthdays, Christmas, Easter etc not to mention the many themed events such as pyjama day, teddy bear picnics, water sports day, sports day, concerns, superhero day...just to name a few! They keep you up to date using the app with their mealtimes and the many cute photos make you feel more involved. My eldest daughter was very fussy with food for almost a year and the staff were so kind to facilitate as much as possible and now she eats everything again! It was a testament to the kind staff who gave an individual approach to each child's needs!
My eldest is currently in summer camp and loves it and will definitely be attending afterschool as well this coming year. I already recommend Kangakare to all my friends and family! Thank you Kangakare!"

"Over the last six years, our three children have all attended KangaKare creche on a full-time basis. The care and affection they have all received is incredible. They have always been so happy in KangaKare & adore each of their teachers. We would recommend KangaKare to any parent looking for quality childcare. They are reliable, trustworthy, knowledgeable and always focused on the welfare and happiness of the children in their care."

"My daughter is five years old and started in Kangakare crèche since she was a baby and it is an amazing place, we couldn’t recommend it more. The teachers and management are fantastic; they all are kind and careful with children (and parents!). Since day 1 we observe the positive impact on development of my child. The teachers are kind , dynamic, creative and they work to engage the children and develop them in an individualised way. The teachers and management always give us the feedback of all children in person. Every single day we know what the child did that day. The environmental is fantastic . This year she had a lovely experience at summer camp at the crèche and there were so much fun things to do and visit. We’re very grateful and thankful to KangaKare crèche and the whole team."

"Kangakare crèche is an amazing place, we couldn’t recommend it more. The staff is amazing, they all have such a caring mindset towards the children (and parents!). It’s wonderful seeing both our sons getting excited about going to crèche every day. They both started in the Baby Room and have loved it since day 1 and soon we could observe the positive impact on their development. The teachers are very dynamic, creative and they really engage the children and develop them in an individualised way. The communication with both teachers and management is fantastic, be it in person, via email or through the app developed for that purpose. The management and teachers are really committed to providing a safe, fun and loving environment. We’re very grateful and thankful to KangaKare crèche and the whole team."

"Our child had the best time at this summer camp! The days were packed with fun, laughter and so much creativity through all the arts and activities that were thoughtfully organised. They made new friends, learned to do things on their own, and came home each day buzzing with stories and smiles. Growing in confidence from the show and tell opportunities and talent show practice. Its is the perfect mix of adventure, imagination and friendship-they're already talking of next year when their sibling can also join in on the fun!"

"We relocated to Cork a few years ago & were fortunate to find a place for our baby at Kangakare. From Baby Room to Preschool, our eldest daughter has been supported & cared for every day by Kangakare’s fabulous staff. Our youngest daughter now also attends. Both girls are happy & thrive in the environment Kangakare provides them."

"On arrival at Kangakare the welcome you will receive is like no other, warm attentive and supportive are just a few words that come to mind. The environment is calm, colourful but also lively, with the children’s work being seen all around. My son has been attending Kangakare since he was six months old. The love, care, and respect he has been shown from the staff and management is unmeasurable. He has been given every opportunity to grow and learn through different mediums while in attendance. The educators are extremely attentive to all his needs. I cannot express the joy I feel with the photos that get sent on the app, as I know they are just a small snippet into the day he has. The staff and management I have found extremely helpful to me, as a first-time mom, who has had many what I thought silly questions. He loves going in each day. He has even stopped waving at the door to me and runs into the arms of the educators. I am confident that he is getting the absolute best love and care each day he is in creche."

"KangaKare is a fantastic place to work. The staff were friendly, welcoming and always willing to help and lend a hand in any situation. The management were encouraging and afforded me endless opportunities to expand my knowledge and education with courses and cpd hours. Adequate non-contact hours were given to complete any documentation necessary. A very approachable management team who really listened and value their staff. I had a very positive experience during my time working for KangaKare."

"I first started working with Kangakare in 2007. Over the years I have been able to experience different rooms and age groups and expand on my experience. Kangakare helped me return to college and provided me with time to focus on my studies as well as financial support. I have made some of the closest friends here over the years. At the beginning of 2022 I was extremely grateful to be given the opportunity to return to work full time and be given the option of a childcare space for my daughter as well as a staff discount."

"From day one staff were friendly, welcoming, and more like family than colleagues. It was like my home away from home. I always looked forward to going into work as there was a relaxed and calm atmosphere. The management are friendly, supportive and always open to new ideas. I had the amazing opportunity to teach the same children I had in the fledgling room again in the preschool room and watch them go to primary school. There was a strong sense of teamwork in the room and we loved to experiment with different creative activities which were more often than not very messy! I still remain friends with many of the girls in Kangakare and often visit both the staff and children to say hello. I would never have left if I didn’t have to relocate to another county."
