The group, which acquired Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nursery in Islington last month, is opening a second site under the brand in East London next spring.
The 47-place nursery will offer a drop-in, pay-as-you go service for parents looking for more flexible childcare, as well as allowing mums and dads working nearby to visit during their lunch breaks. Nursery manager, Mikki Parkes, said the move is in response to parents wanting more flexibility since the Covid-19 pandemic.
Nursery manager Mikki Parkes said, ‘I’m really excited to lead Hopes and Dreams as it begins a new chapter with the opening of a second site at Old Street. Emerging from a post-pandemic world we are acutely aware of parents’ ever-changing work and childcare patterns, and we want to be better than ever at catering to those needs. We’re so looking forward to welcoming children and parents to our new site in spring 2022.’
