On-site Crèche

Waterside Women’s Centre offers an on-site crèche to support women attending courses, programmes, and activities at the Centre. Our crèche helps remove childcare barriers and allows women to take part knowing their child is cared for in a safe, nurturing environment.

Who the Crèche Is For

  • Children aged 8 weeks –4 years

  • Available for women attending courses or activities at Waterside Women’s Centre

Session Times

We offer two crèche sessions per day:

  • Morning: 9:30am – 11:30am

  • Afternoon: 12:30pm – 2:30pm

Children can attend one session per day only.

Cost

  • Free for women attending courses or programmes at the Centre during crèche hours

  • Drop-in crèche sessions are also available (subject to availability)

Settling-In Sessions

If your child has not attended our crèche before, they will need to come in for a settling-in session before using the service. This helps your child feel comfortable in the space and allows our staff to get to know their individual needs.

How to Book

When booking a course or activity that requires crèche support, please let us know:

  • Your child’s name

  • Your child’s age

  • Which crèche session you will need

  • Whether your child has attended before.

This information helps us plan staffing and ensure we provide the best possible care.

A Safe and Supportive Space

Our crèche is run by experienced childcare staff in a warm, welcoming environment. We are committed to providing safe, age-appropriate play and care while you take time for learning, wellbeing, or connection.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss your child’s needs, please contact the Centre before booking.
