Established by Angie Gaubert in 2005, Brick by Brick Pre-School is an Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ rated setting, which provides sessional childcare and early years education for children aged two to five years. The pre-school has a capacity for up to 40 children and has built a strong reputation within the local community for its nurturing approach and commitment to high-quality care.

Brick by Brick Pre-School operates from Beckenham Rugby Football Club, which offers bright, modern indoor spaces, secure outdoor play areas, and access to wider playing fields, enabling a diverse and engaging learning experience for children.

Located on Balmoral Avenue in Beckenham, South East London, the setting is well-placed within its local community and is a stone’s throw from South Norwood Country Park.

After 21 years of ownership, the business was brought to market to allow the former owner, Angie Gaubert, to retire.

Following a sales process with Sophie Willcox at Christie & Co, Brick by Brick Pre-School has been acquired by first-time buyers, a husband-and-wife duo, Sajid Mehmood and Aroma Naz. They were attracted to the setting’s excellent reputation and strong foundations, and plan to build on its success by continuing to deliver high-quality childcare to families in the Beckenham area.

Sajid Mehmood, the new owner of Brick by Brick Pre-School, comments, “My wife and I are delighted to be taking on Brick by Brick Pre-School and building on the excellent foundations established by Angie and her team over the past 20 years. The setting has an outstanding reputation within the local community, and we are committed to maintaining the high standards of care and education that families have come to expect. We look forward to working with the dedicated staff, supporting local families, and continuing to provide a nurturing environment where children can learn, grow and thrive.”

Sophie Willcox, Director - Childcare & Education at Christie & Co, comments, “I am delighted to have helped Angie find the right buyer to carry on her legacy, and I hope Angie enjoys a well-earned retirement. We received a lot of interest in the pre-school from both existing operators and first-time buyers, highlighting the continued demand for well-established early years settings across London and the South East, particularly those with strong community ties and proven educational standards.”

Brick by Brick Pre-School was sold for an undisclosed price.
