About the Product Awards

Each individual may vote in as many categories as they choose by selecting their favourite product/service from a list, or entering the name of an alternative option in a space provided. Each individual can vote in each category only once, and must verify their vote in order for it to count. For more information on the voting process rules and regulations, please click here to view our Terms & Conditions.

About the Crèche Awards

We offer parents the opportunity to vote for your child’s crèche through 3 categories. The 3 creches in each category that receive the most votes automatically make the final.

From here, our appointed  specialists, CanavanByrne and Safehands will carry out a visit of each crèche to carry out an independent audit, covering health & safety, adult/child engagement, curriculum delivery and initiatives, partnership with parents, policies and procedures, food and nutrition and equality & diversity. How the service has responded to quality initiatives such as Aistear and Siolta will also be considered.
