    Well I've been there 5 years and I've never heard of it having one so no I don't think it has unfortunately.

    The nearest I've seen to a crèche would be the apprentices in B Block:p

    No there is not creche in CIT. There is financial help towards the cost via student services but as good as the service is, the amount of money they offer is very little compared to the cost of childcare.

    Also as a point there was a protest and and open day a couple of years back where lecturers and students brought their kids on a day out to CIT (bouncy castles and all that) to highlight the need for some kind of creche. It was effective, it showed that the institution had lots of parents and kids. Future proofing and a moral issue combined. It should have worked.

    However the powers that be were not swayed and refused to move on their stance to offer a free or even a subsidised creche. Surprising really since it is a college supposedly populated by intellingent forward thinking folks. Shame the accountants and idiots head of the college are so out of touch with their employees and students. This is what happens when money is the main concern. A slow downturn of input will happen with this weak minded attitude.

    Anyways OP take a look at this thread in the parenting forum. Hopefully it will inform you with more options for your own situation:
