Parent/Toddler Group
Please join us at our Parent & Baby/Toddler group. All ages from newborns to pre-school, and siblings are very welcome too.
It’s a great opportunity for the little ones to make new friends and (just as importantly!) the parents too.
It’s on every Tuesday from 11am to 1pm in the Carmelite Community Centre on Aungier Street.
If you’re travelling by bus, it’s on the 20B, 33X, 46B, and 46N routes.  For drivers,  the carpark is at the rear of the building.
If you’re interested, please contact Ciara Leahy at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
For insurance reasons, we must point out that the group is for the children of members of Down Syndrome Dublin only.We look forward to seeing you there!
