Innovations Children's Centre
At Innovations we strive to deliver high quality care and education across the community respecting the needs of individual family units.
The centre is community driven and works in partnership with a wide range of individuals, schools and agencies to provide a one-stop shop to health, adult learning, childcare and early education services.
Experienced and committed early years practitioners, with the support of the children's centre teacher, provide an exciting and challenging environment which supports and extends children's development and learning.
The centre offers services to help parents / carers who:
- are working;
- want to return to work;
- want to use training opportunities in the centre;
- want to use the healthcare services in the centre.

- a purpose-built, child friendly environment based on a campus with Dean Field Community Primary School and St Malachy's RC Primary School;
- full and part-time childcare places for children aged 0 to 5 years;
- open from 8.00 am to 6.00 pm, 48 weeks a year;
