Welcome to Acrewood Daycare
LEADING NURSERY & DAYCARE IN WEST BELFAST
Acrewood Daycare is a Nursery which also offers Daycare & Childcare in West Belfast. We are situated directly across from the Royal Victoria Hospital in the heart of Belfast. At Acrewood, we understand that trusting someone to care for your child can be a huge challenge for families. We value your trust and in return we are committed to providing the highest quality support to you and your child. We have created a homely environment that nurtures your child and supports them to reach their full potential and as a small service we know and cherish each child as an individual, providing care and support to meet their unique needs and personalities.
Our team of trained and experienced staff will create fun and stimulating activities to support your child’s development across all areas of learning. Working in partnership with families we build upon learning and routines at home and introduce new and exciting areas of learning. We also enjoy a range of community-based venues, activities and outings to enrich the children’s experiences. Our staff also have extensive experience creating a supportive environment for children with additional needs.
Spaces also Available for Deaf Children
Many people do not realise, but we also have spaces in our Nursery ( 0 -2 years) and within our Childcare & Daycare Services (2 years - 5 years) at Acrewood Daycare in Belfast for Babies & Children who are Deaf. Additionally, we can cater for children who have Additional Needs.
As a service based within St. Joseph’s Centre for the Deaf, our mission is to create an inclusive, supportive learning environment where all children can learn and thrive including those with developmental delay or additional needs. Our curriculum supports individual learning and support programmes for children based upon their unique needs and our staff have extensive experience supporting children with additional needs.
We also have bespoke resources and spaces designed specifically for children who might need additional support and thanks to funding from the Fair Play Programme we have additional staff support for children who need a little more support and encouragement. The diversity of our staff team and our children is something we respect and cherish and we are committed to the principles of equality, diversity and inclusion in everything we do.
Reviews from Parents
“Our little girl has had the best experience at Acrewood. Staff were understanding and experienced in helping her transition to the daycare when she was 11 months old. Now she is 3 years old and has made so many friends amongst the children and staff. She enjoys all the activities, outings to the park, and field trips. There is a great combination of play and education for toddlers, we love that she has new activities to try everyday. It's a great option for any staff working at the Royal Hospital, a very convenient location."

"Our son attended Acrewood and we couldn’t be more pleased as parents. They provide the best atmosphere and activities to develop the children in such important stage of their lives. The staff are so caring, loving & special that we really felt like it was our son’s home away from home! We can comfortably say that Acrewood was so far, the best decision we ever made regarding our son!”

“I cannot recommend the team at Acrewood more highly. Our children started in Acrewood following a negative experience in another setting. We were so nervous but the team were so reassuring and caring. The team have been so supportive to us, whilst attending the creche both our children have received a diagnosis of autism and the support we have received from everyone at Acrewood has been incredible."
