Meet Louise – The Heart Behind The Play Den
Hi, I’m Louise, a mum of three and a passionate advocate for early childhood development based in West Cork.
The Play Den was created from my own journey, as a parent of children with additional needs, to offer a calm, inclusive, and sensory-friendly space where babies and toddlers can play, connect, and grow.
It’s a space where families feel welcomed, understood, and never judged. 💛
Louise Bryan
