"It was hard to say goodbye to Higgys House after my son spent two years in their wonderful Creche. He started in Higgys House when he was just
3 years old. During that winter, he had enjoyed lots of fun, various activities, and was so excited at pick-ups ,often wanted to stay there that’s how much he loved the Creche.
Over the past two years, Danni,Joanna ,Rachel,Eszter among other lovely staff in Higgys House, dedicated their professional care and love. The staff working in Higgys House are very professional and lovely and they treat our children as their own.
Higgys House is always clean, the food is always fresh and well prepared and delicious by lovely Kavita- the Creche owner, and also the knowledge my son has learnt there is multi-dimensional.
My son has enjoyed every moment there and became more confident, caring, and sociable.
It goes without saying that me and my partner,we highly recommend Higgys House. If you are reading this, then I submit that you are well on the right track to choosing a high quality, safe & loving care service for your children.
Higgys House is exceptionally clean and comfortable and with excellent equipment for the children's development.
I felt like being at home as Higgy’s house want to create a strong bond between parents and children and often families get involved in diverse activities at the Creche which is absolutely amazing.
We much appreciated the help and care Higgys House provided for our son , and look forward to dropping by to say hello!
Thanks a million everyone and we miss you lots already!"

"We would highly recommend Higgy’s House as a creche and Montessori. Our two children have enjoyed every minute of their time there, and we know they have been well cared for since day one. The staff are caring and attentive; their creativity and sense of fun knows no bounds. Higgys use an amazing app to keep us posted on daily activities, photos, menus and how they work with the children to ensure they are meeting key development goals and milestones.
We know how lucky we are to be part of Higgy’s House. Every day they help make our jobs as parents much easier, and you can’t ask for more than that."
Roz and Dave Williams ( February 2023)
"My eldest will complete 4 years of Higgy's house in summer. She went through all stages on full day care from the age of 1 to 5 year old (baby room, wobblers, preschool) and she loved everything, everyday, every hour.
I felt from day one a safe and respectful environment with well trained and lovable personnel. all with a genuine passion in developing little people's confidence and skills. I see that my girl feels comfortable, loved and supported among all staff. The creche has a super friendly and cozy environment!
My youngest has just started his journey at Higgy's and will remain there for another 4 years and I am sure he will be well looked after and cared for just as much as my eldest was.
I am thankful to all staff at Higgy's house for the superb work they put on to developing every single child."
Agata ( February 2023)
"Our 4 children attended Higgy’s House between 2008 and 2019. I was a full time working mother for most of this and at home also for a few years. Regardless of whether you work or don’t work Higgy’s House is a crèche that will cater for all families. We found the standard of care to be excellent and the staff to be kind and interested in our children. All of our children had great fun and developed so much thanks to Higgy’s House. Their excellent Tusla reports show that this is the best crèche in the Gorey area and I would recommend Higgy’s House to everyone."
Pat and Kate D’Arcy (June 2019)
"In Higgy’s House we are all the same."
"These are the words of my 4 year old son describing Higgy’s House and I couldn’t have put it better myself. 2 of my children have now completed the ECCE scheme, one of which has special needs. The level of inclusion, equality and child led learning in Higgy’s House is second to none and helped both my children grow into confident and happy mini humans. Over the last 3 years all the staff have shared in my families journey full of laughter, compassion, understanding, encouragement, tears and plenty of hugs. We will miss our Higgy’s House family."
Dawn Canavan (June 2019)
"Thank you for taking such great care of Dylan and Ruby throughout their years with you.

He will miss his teachers and friends so much but hope he gets as much love in his new school."

All 3 of our kids have been in Higgy’s since babies and we have seen the benefits of such a great environment in them over the years as a result of the dedication and care that the whole team have shown. Higgy’s has been a really fun and caring place for our kids to learn and grow over the years and they particularly loved the family feel of the place.
