What The Parents Say

  • Fantastic place for kids and excellent value for money. My boys go every day and they love it. They never want to leave and look forward to going the next day. Staff are very friendly and always make time to discuss what my boys were up to that day. I would recommend The Playbarn to everyone that needs before and after school care. Thank you Playbarn for keeping my boys happy and keeping our minds at rest.

    Emma McCallum

  • My 2 girls come here after school once a week. It started out as a temporary thing due to me having difficulty with child care, but the girls loved it so much that I have kept them there. It is absolutely fantastic, kids love it – they have brought fabulous things home that they have made. They love snack time better than Mum’s apparently ! All the staff are brilliant with the kids and there is loads for them to do. Reasonable rates, I would recommend to anyone !

    Denise Mccracken

  • This place is fantastic for kids…it has everything…indoor games, toys and activities. Telly with comfy sofas if your kids just want to chill out after school. Also, computers and computer games and even help with homework if required. Great outdoor facilities too…came to collect my son last week and it was great to see him playing outdoors with the other kids…all having a great time. Zoe and the staff are very friendly and helpful too. The only problem I have is getting my child to come home!!!!
