About This Service
Free Range Kids is a preschool service situated at the Old Rectory House, near Croom in County Limerick. The facility utilises an old period-style house, with several outer buildings on the premises thoughtfully converted into dedicated preschool spaces. This service caters to children aged between 2 and 6 years. The preschool offers a variety of sessional and extended care options to accommodate different family needs. Morning and afternoon sessional classes run throughout the day. Children have the flexibility to remain at the service for longer periods outside the standard sessional times. The service is grounded in the principle that exposure to the natural environment and outdoor experiences, along with engagement with natural materials are crucial for the early development of young children. Free Range Kids operates across several well-resourced rooms, each located in different buildings on the premises. The Playroom is based within the main Rectory house, while other spaces such as the Swallow Shed, the Loft Room, the Coach House, and the Barn are situated in adjacent buildings. These varied environments provide distinct and diverse settings for children's activities. The grounds feature expansive gardens, fields, forests, playgrounds, a polytunnel, farmyards, and sheds, offering ample opportunities for exploration and adventure. The preschool places a strong emphasis on outdoor play and discovery, which is central to the ethos of the service.
