Sensory Pods
Sensory Pods provide a calm and supportive space for individuals who may experience sensory processing, sensory support, or anxiety-related challenges.
Designed to offer a comfortable environment, the pods allow users to engage with or reduce visual, auditory, and sensory stimuli based on their individual needs. This can help visitors feel more comfortable, relaxed, and supported while using library services.
Sensory Pods are available in Kildare Town Library and Leixlip Library. For more information or to book a session, please contact the relevant library directly:

Sensory Cubbies
The Sensory Cubbie is an innovative sensory support space designed to help individuals regulate their sensory needs in a calm, safe, and comfortable environment. It can support people with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, anxiety, and others who may benefit from sensory regulation.
Unlike a traditional sensory room, the Sensory Cubbie provides a personalised experience that can be adapted to individual sensory preferences. Users can adjust features such as lighting, sound, and sensory effects to create an environment that best supports their needs.
The Cubbie can be used before, during, or after periods of stress or sensory overload, helping users to regulate, refocus, and comfortably participate in activities and services. Designed with accessibility in mind, it is wheelchair accessible and includes flexible seating options to support a wide range of users.
By providing a dedicated sensory regulation space, the Sensory Cubbie helps create a more inclusive and accessible environment for visitors of all ages.
