St. Brigid's Day Nursery

St. Brigid’s Day Nursery is a long‑standing, community‑based early childhood care and education facility in Dublin’s North Inner City. Established in 1940, the nursery operates as a state‑subsidised centre with charitable status and provides quality childcare for up to 60 children. The service is designed to offer a caring, nurturing environment where children can thrive socially, emotionally and academically. The nursery’s ethos centres on a safe, secure and stimulating setting that promotes holistic development through child‑led learning. Warm, kind interactions are prioritised, and the environment is deliberately structured to encourage exploration and curiosity. Staff members hold recognised qualifications in early education and engage in continuous professional development, including training in first aid, child protection, fire safety, manual handling and food safety, ensuring the highest standards of care. A varied programme of activities supports the curriculum, ranging from outdoor messy play and creative arts to themed events such as Pancake Tuesday, LEGO sessions and sports days. An up‑to‑date calendar of events keeps families informed of the many learning opportunities that help children reach their full potential.
