This latest deal means that Kids Planet now operates 75 nurseries across the Midlands and the North West, providing childcare to more than 10,000 children.
Poppy & Jack’s was established in 2009 and supported by the Foresight Group – a private equity investment company.
The deal, which was backed by investment from BGF, follows Kids Planet’s acquisition of Learning Curve – a group of five nurseries and out-of-school clubs across Lytham St Anne’s and Blackpool, last month.
In March, Kids Planet won a bid to run the five workplace nurseries for staff and students at Oxford University, which were put out to tender, after being previously managed by Bright Horizons.
