Hyde & Seek Childcare (Millbourne)

Hyde & Seek Childcare is a family‑run centre that has been delivering high‑quality early years provision since 1998. It offers a safe, child‑friendly environment for children from six months up to twelve years, operating a range of programmes that include a traditional crèche, a Montessori‑based setting and an after‑school club. The centre’s “Step Ahead” curriculum blends the Irish Aistear framework with Montessori principles, providing a creative, activity‑rich approach that encourages children to explore, develop confidence and express their individuality. The facility places a strong emphasis on holistic development, ensuring each child receives a balanced diet, fresh air, regular exercise, rest and play. Age‑appropriate learning materials and high‑quality indoor and outdoor toys support active learning, while a dedicated Key Carer is assigned to each child to build a personalised care plan, maintain a learning journal and provide daily feedback to parents. Menus are designed in consultation with a nutritionist and prepared by HACCP‑trained chefs, offering varied, nutritious meals that meet individual dietary needs.
