Nest Creche and Montessori in Ranelagh, attended by 50 children and with 200 on its waiting list, to be redeveloped for residential use
The Nest Creche and Montessori in Ranelagh, Dublin, is closing in August due to the building being redeveloped for residential use, leaving 50 children and 200 on the waiting list without childcare. Parents are scrambling to find alternative placements amidst a shortage of spaces, particularly for babies, while local politicians explore possible solutions. Creche closures are a common problem in Ireland, exacerbating existing childcare shortages.
