Inagh Ark Childcare

Inagh Ark Childcare is a community-based, not-for-profit service located in a rural area outside Ennis, Co. Clare. It operates from a single-storey, purpose-built building and opens 08:00 to 18:00, Monday to Friday, all year apart from the Christmas period. The service provides full day, part time and sessional care for children from 6 months to 6 years. Four care rooms cater for different age groups, and two sleep rooms are available. An outdoor play area lies to the rear and side of the building, with a community hall and playground nearby. The service offers the ECCE free preschool year, the government subvention scheme, and places for children whose parents are in certified training, education or CE schemes. It is part of Inagh Development Limited and opened in 2007. School-age children can be dropped before school and collected by a school bus at 14:00 and 15:00.
