Springfields Day Nursery has been successfully operating for over 25 years, during that time the business has gained an excellent reputation for providing quality and effective childcare. The nursery provides care for up to 57 children between the ages of 0 to 3. In addition, there is also a kids club which provides care for up to 39 children aged between the ages of 3 to 11. Springfields Day Nursery was placed on the market due to the vendor wishing to pursue other business interests. Redwoods Dowling Kerr presented Mrs. Eve with multiple viewings and three offers.
The business was sold to first-time buyer Mr. Patel. Mr. Patel is new to the childcare sector but has many years of experience in other business sectors. Mr. Patel was attracted to the setting due to the reputation and long-term management structure, which is very important to his future success. Mr Patel found his ideal setting via Redwoods Dowling Kerr corporate sale process and Mrs. Eve is very happy to hand her setting over to such an enthusiastic and ambitious new owner.
Vendor, Mrs Eve commented on her service: “The decision to sell Springfields Day Nursery Ltd was incredibly tough and emotional. I was presented with 3 purchasers from Redwoods Dowling Kerr but was immediately drawn to Mr. Patel due to his love for the nursery and appreciation for everything we have achieved to date.
Sarah and Redwoods Dowling Kerr were fantastic throughout the whole process, she was incredibly proactive and knowledgeable and pushed through the sale with sheer determination. Sarah called me the day after completion just to ask how I was feeling and to make sure I was ok, as they really do understand the emotions attached to selling your nursery.
I am now looking forward to my new challenge working alongside my partner for his Adventure Centre. I would not hesitate in recommending Redwoods Dowling Kerr to any nursery owner.”
Buyer, Mr Patel commented on his experience: “I am delighted to have acquired Springfields Day Nursery Ltd. I have no plans to change anything as the business is such a successful nursery with a fantastic atmosphere, parents and team.
The team at Redwoods Dowling Kerr were amazing and although I faced many challenges along the way, they were always on hand to assist and reassure me throughout the process. I would 100% recommend using Redwoods Dowling Kerr again and in fact, I will be calling Sarah Ellison again in the new year to discuss further acquisitions.”
