'Impressive' Leyland children's nursery sold to national operator by founding husband and wife team
The nursery is rated as ‘Good’ by Oftsed.
A popular children’s nursery is in new hands after being sold by its founding husband and wife team.
Yewlands Day Nursery in Yewlands Drive, Leyland, was opened by Michelle and Robert Twinn in 2020, just before the Covid-19 pandemic.
It has an operating capacity for up to 52 children between the ages of nought to five years and is accredited for its use of ‘The Curiosity Approach’ - which puts a child's natural curiosity, awe, and wonder at the centre of learning rather than focusing strictly on academic targets or "school-readiness".
Following a confidential sales process with Sofia Beck at Christie & Co, the nursery has now been acquired by national operator, Kids Planet and is running as normal.
Sofia Beck said: “The sale of Yewlands Day Nursery continues into what has been another buoyant year for nursery transactions across the North West. Demand remains strong from both regional and national operators seeking high-quality settings with strong reputations, with Yewlands being no exception.
“Michelle and Rob have built an impressive business since opening the nursery in 2020, creating a nursery that is highly regarded by families and well positioned for future growth. I am delighted to have supported them through the sale process and wish both them and Kids Planet every success in the future.”
Yewlands Day Nursery was sold for an undisclosed price.
