Why did you get into childcare?
I have a really big family and childcare has always been part of our lives. The owner is my great-grandma Penny. She used to be a childminder and then she found an old disused railwayman’s cottage 25 years ago and turned it into a nursery. My great-grandad was a builder and he worked on the space.
