Play Away Day Nursery is an Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ day nursery setting with an operating capacity for 87 children aged nought to five years. The purpose-built setting is recognised for its fantastic reputation within the local community and is committed to delivering high-quality childcare.

The setting sits in the heart of Runcorn town centre on Langdale Road, and benefits from excellent access to central Liverpool, which is just a 30-minute drive away.

Play Away Day Nursery has been owned by Grainne McGoven-Scott since 2001 and was brought to market as she looks towards retirement.

Following a confidential sales process with Sofia Beck at Christie & Co, the business has been acquired by Kids Planet Day Nurseries, and has been subsequently rebranded. This acquisition takes its growing portfolio in excess of 300 settings.

Sofia Beck, Director – Childcare & Education at Christie & Co, comments, “After first meeting Grainne almost 10 years ago, I’m so pleased to have assisted with her exit and the sale of her incredible setting. I have no doubt that Kids Planet will continue to build on the nursery’s strong foundations, investing in its future while maintaining the high-quality care and learning environment that families have come to know and trust. I wish Grainne every success in her next chapter.”

Play Away Day Nursery was sold for an undisclosed price.
