I am writing to let you know how much i have appreciated the excellent job Kate has done over the past 5 months. My daughter has really thrived in your creche, thanks to your wonderful and welcoming environment. She looks forward to seeing you and all of the other happy children. Even though XX is attending your creche 5 days a week and I am away from her, I have good peace of mind that she is in good hands during those times.

Thanks again for the wonderful job you are doing .

Kind regard

Hi Orla,

Just wanted to say well done to you and the team for a lovely atmosphere in the creche this morning! Was great to come in and find one of the girls minding the older children with an umbrella on her head and Michelle in the baby room with a Disney onesie! Certainly brightened up a grey Wednesday for me.

Keep up the good work,
XX

X has been in Links for over a year now and I have nothing but praise for the crèche and the staff in the crèche. One of the first questions he asks me in the morning is if it’s “a crèche day today” and skips in without fail. He has come along so well, coming out of his shy / quiet phase having been nurtured by his lovely teachers, especially Sinead and Ciara.

I had always planned to get an au pair for my return to work with the two children as it makes better sense for us financially but I am really questioning if I am doing the right thing now disrupting him while he is so happy.

Personally I will miss popping in and out of the crèche and the friendly flexible environment, the amazing things he is learning & lots of laughs I get from the songs that they learn – Buffalo shoulder being the latest!!

I will keep in touch and if there are mid term / summer camps XX would love to come back and see the lovely pals he has made.

Thank you all so very much.

X is loving the crèche these days and it is very much down to the hard work and sunny demeanor from the staff! I am very aware this is led by your super Management team and I appreciate it!

To everyone at Links,

Thank you for the great care that XX received during his time at Links Abington and Portmarnock (nearly 9 years in total). He has made many great friends among the staff and children.

Best wishes,

Links St Olaves received a beautiful card from siblings that read:

Thanks again to everyone there for everything you do (for both the boys). It is making it a lot easier on us, to know that XX is still going to be attending Links – while he is so looking forward to “Big School”.

It comes with the “but I am still going to have breakfast in creche, and come back to my friends when I am finished”! ;o)

I want to take this opportunity to thank the staff at Links Creche Drumcondra for all the love, cuddles, kind words, clear directions, guidance, teaching, and encouragement that you have given X. He has blossomed under your care.

Through your careful and steady guidance, X has learned to count, say the alphabet, play well with others, explore the animal kingdom, create almost anything out of a toilet roll, and enjoy his first four years. You took him from cooing and diapers (nappies) to crawling, walking, running, hopping, and cycling. You taught him that boys do love dancing and art. He can almost write his name by himself. You wiped his scraped knees, caught his tears, and kissed away every sorrow and wound.

Every mother’s greatest concern is leaving her child with someone else. You eased my worry through your consistent care for my son. When he arrived in the morning, he ran into teachers’ arms. I knew that happened only because he felt safe and loved. Thank you. Well done.

My deepest thanks to teachers past and present – Christine, Claire, Ruth (whose ginger hair he adored), Kate, Lola, Michaela, Emma, Jenny, Crystal, Karen, Simona, and many more. You are his first loves. X adores all of you. From the bottom of my heart – thank you. We will see you again next summer!

Kindest Regards,
X

I’d just like to reiterate how happy we have been with all the staff in Links and the care XXXX has received over the last year. We hate taking him out but unfortunately we need to find somewhere closer to our new house. Please pass on our gratitude to all the girls who’ve taken care of XXXX over the last year, he’s really enjoyed it.

Thanks again,
Yvonne and Colin

Dear Clonee Staff

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the staff in Links for their care of XXXX. He was one of the first children to attend and will have attended for three and a half years when he finishes. In all those years I have not had one complaint about his care. He comes home very happy after each day and has learnt something new. The Management and owners should be very happy with the girls work and I would recommend the centre to anyone.

Thanks again,
Alison Finn

After 6 years we will be sadly leaving Links Childcare.
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all the wonderful staff we have dealt with over the years. They truly are a credit to Links and a few that stick out for us are Preetha, Susan, Moira, Jolita, Leona, Emily (used to be in wobbler room), Inga (old toddler room) and Trisha.

It will be sad to leave but the kids are now grown.

Thanks again

I’ve mentioned before that we’re very happy with XXXX’s and XXXX’s teachers in Links – but I just wanted to drop you a note to particularly acknowledge Jessie, and how great she has been with XXXX as he has gone through a bit of a ‘challenging phase’ lately. Jessie has been very consistent, firm but fair in her approach, and XXXX is clearly very fond of her. She has also been very sensitive and supportive towards us as parents.

I’d also like to mention that the events that have been organised over the last while have been great little touches for adding a bit of fun and excitement for the kids – such as the cake sales, pirate day, pyjama day, egg hunt etc. – so well done to all the staff on that!

Kind regards
Kristina (& Keith)

I just wanted to say thank you for the great after school service you are providing – I don’t think I have actually said how well its working out & how happy we are with the service.

I had XXXX’s parent teacher meeting yesterday & it went really well, he is very settled in BIG school now & Links have helped greatly with this.

The School secretary said to me yesterday that XXXX is always happy & well cared for by everyone on the school run & any of the mammies that I would know in the school have said the same to me in the past – its very reassuring & greatly appreciated

Thanks again,

I wanted to express our gratitude for XXXX’s graduation and indeed the show that went with it.

XXXX had a fantastic day at his graduation. The night before the show, we could hear him practising the songs for over an hour in his bed – long after the light had gone out! It was an excellent idea to hold a graduation – the children’s excitement was contagious, and their pride in their performance was heart-melting. Jonie and Treasa invested a huge amount of time, effort, thought and energy into what was a super performance on the day. The girls should be highly commended for the innovation and creativity they brought to the show. They managed to inspire 20 three/four year olds which is some accomplishment. Jonie is an absolute asset to your team there.

At more than one birthday party recently, all the Moms have expressed concern as to what they would ever do if Jonie left – such is the respect and love the kids have for her. Treasa too has made a huge impression having only been there a few short months. Jonie and Treasa are amazing childminders and we are so fortunate to have them looking after XXXX. Above all, since our very first day they have been completely honest and upfront with us. It may be a hard message to give parents if a child wasn’t sharing/was upset – but they have always candidly and constructively told us if they thought anything amiss, and that is so appreciated. XXXX will be moving on to after-school with you shortly. While he is looking forward to “Big School” he has made it very clear that he will still be coming to créche in the mornings and straight back there in the evenings after school – Links really are his 2nd family.

XXXX is developing at a fierce rate. Janice was of course a huge loss to us, and we all miss her everyday. Catherine however has been incredible in taking XXXX under her wing. He has progressed so well in Wobblers in the past few weeks, it has taken us all almost by surprise. As above, Catherine (and Cici) is an instrumental part of XXXX’s day and he has advanced and developed with speed in the last few weeks. Again, their candour and honesty is appreciated and respected. Our heartfelt thanks to both Catherine and Cici for making Links somewhere XXXX looks forward to going everyday, and somewhere that is going to give him a start in life, that will stay with him through his lifetime.

All the girls are a credit to you. I have rarely come across someone as dedicated as Shona (she is fantastic with parents and children), as thoughtful as Gillian (thank you so much for the jellies on graduation day), as creative as Lisa (come back soon). The entire team are a fantastic asset to you – and again I am sorry for not mentioning them all – we equally appreciate Emily, Karen, Claire and every single one of the girl. They each add something so special to the kid’s day, and each of them in a unique way. We never cease to appreciate the dedication they have to our children, the affection and warmth with which they look after our children.

Once again, thank you for a very special and very memorable day for XXXXs graduation, and for continuing to be such an integral and beneficial part of both XXXX and XXXX’s day.

Kindest regards, and I look forward to seeing you again soon. Jane
