Kids Planet, the third largest nursery group in the UK, has bought two more nurseries, taking its total number of settings to 190.
This month alone, the rapidly expanding group has acquired 100-place Nurture Me Day Nursery in Lutterworth, Leicestershire and Puddleducks Day Nursery in Warrington – located on grounds of a Church of England primary school.
This is on top of the three settings it purchased in February and the nine sites it acquired in January when the group also opened a brand new, purpose built setting in Stanley Square in Trafford.
As of 30 November last year, Kids Planet, which employs over 5,000 staf, had 172 nurseries, according to Nursery World’s Nursery Chains 2024 supplement.
