Creché Prices, Quick Comparison

Hello boardsie parents. I was wondering if you could tell me are these creché fees around average. I will add at this time that when they say that fees are "subject to review" they mean the will means test student parents and the MAX a parent can expect off is 50% though the full 50% is rarely if ever given!

yeah it looks about average, maybe a little above average if you dont get the student rate. looks like a good creche though.
mine went to the on campus creche in maynooth which was 187.50 a week (student rate). it wasnt worth that much though.

EDIT after seeing moonbeams post, forgot to mention that was when she was in the baby room, which is now closed due to not enough demand, most places are more expensive for baby rooms as there is a higher staff to baby ratio needed than in the toddler/waddler rooms, so as they get older and move rooms it gets cheaper.

Our first daughter was in the UCD creche and, at the time anyway, it was waaayyy cheaper than anything else around. Great facilities too.
