Grandir UK continues to grow in Sussex

We are pleased to announce that Grandir UK has acquired two new nurseries in Sussex. The Elan Day Nursery and Elan Preschool, situated on different sites just a few minutes’ walk apart, in Haywards Heath and Little Monkeys Day Nursery and Preschool in nearby Horsham. The two high-quality settings offer 128 and 129 childcare places respectively.

Chris Holmes, former owner of both nurseries said, “I was delighted that Grandir UK were the successful buyer as they share the same values and philosophy that I have followed over a number of years”.

Lydia Hopper, CEO of Grandir UK comments, “Chris has confidently left the nurseries in our capable hands to continue to provide high-quality childcare where children will enjoy an enriched and unique range of education programmes. The nursery teams will enjoy all the benefits a larger group brings such as professional development and rewards and recognition. Thank you to Rhett Hill from Oakhurst Finance who approached us with the opportunity and helped all parties throughout.”

Lydia Hopper continues, “We are very much looking forward to meeting all the children, families and the nursery teams over the coming weeks.”

Along with Grandir UK’s brand-new nursery opening this Autumn in Spencers Wood, Berkshire, the three new additions, takes Grandir UK to a total of 84 nurseries. 

Grandir UK is the home of multiple nursery brands across the United Kingdom and has been delivering outstanding childcare solutions to families with babies, toddlers and preschool children for over 25 years in settings across the South West, Midlands, South East and Central England.
