Hillview Early Years Service

Hillview Early Years Service operates from the Hillview Family Resource Centre in Ballinteer, Dublin 16. As a member of the nationwide Family Resource Centre programme, it delivers a broad range of early childhood and family‑focused activities under the Prevention, Partnership and Family Support (PPFS) model. The centre runs two on‑site preschools that provide Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) for young children, alongside a Parent & Baby Parental Educational Programme (PEEPS) designed to support new parents and promote early learning at home. Beyond the preschools, Hillview offers a variety of family support services, including counselling clinics, hobby and educational classes, and organised children’s clubs and camps throughout the year. Seasonal programmes such as the Hillview FRC Summer Camp and community events like the Mental Health Ireland campaign and Community Fun Day further enrich the local area. The centre also collaborates with local secondary schools and hosts a Pocket Forest initiative, underscoring its commitment to community partnership, holistic development, and environmental awareness.
