Just Childcare on track with expansion plans

Business Management Provision
The North-West nursery group has bought a 97-place nursery in Atherton, Greater Manchester.

The new setting, Oaklea Private Day Nursery, is Just Childcare's 33rd setting. It was established in 2002 by former owners Mr and Mrs Farrell, who have now retired from the sector. The nursery is currently undergoing major refurbishment by Just Childcare, which is due to be completed by the end of the year.

With the new nursery, Just Childcare, which operates nurseries in Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and Cheshire, now offers more than 2,300 childcare places.

The acqusition follows the consolidation of a couple of Just Childcare's settings.

In March, the nursery group received an eight figure sum from Allied Irish Bank to refurbish its nurseries and to continue to expand.
