With the new purpose built facility, Oakmount Crèche can offer services for up to 110 children.
Designed by ABA Architects, the extended facility offers ambiance, layout, acoustics, lighting, equipment and furnishings designed to have positive impact on children’s learning and behaviour.

The new building uses passive and active solar energy with a high degree of glazing used throughout to allow as much light as possible into the building.
Additional facilities for baby, toddler, playgroup, Montessori and after school activity include a "Magic Room" – a double storey room with an assortment of windows at low level so the children can observe the surrounding environment.
Funding for the project was partially provided through the National Development Plan 2007-2013 under the National Childcare Investment Programme 2006-2010.
