Rooftops Nursery School is an established day nursery setting that provides care for up to 54 children at a time. It offers a calm, nurturing and child-led environment shaped by Montessori principles, with the nursery achieving its accreditation with The Curiosity Approach. The setting sits on Queens Road in Richmond, North Yorkshire, and is the only private nursery in the town.

It has been owned by Hannah Hurley since 2013, shortly after her daughter attended the setting. Her vision has been central to the nursery’s strong reputation and its ongoing role within the Richmond community. After more than a decade of dedicated ownership, Hannah made the difficult decision to sell the business due to other commitments.

Following a confidential sales process with Grace Day at Christie & Co, Rooftops Nursery School has been purchased by first-time buyers, Joanne and Andrew Banner. They felt that the setting was the perfect place to begin their journey in early years education and care.

Hannah Hurley, former owner of Rooftops Nursery School, comments, “I will be very sad to leave the nursery, staff and parents have been a pleasure to work with, but I know it is in the best hands with the new owners Joanne and Andrew.”

Grace Day, Senior Business Agent – Childcare & Education at Christie & Co, comments, “When we brought this opportunity to market, we received a large number of enquiries, but it was clear from the outset that Joanne and Andrew were the right fit to continue the legacy that Hannah had built. This sale reflects what we’re continuing to see across the market, with new entrants keen to acquire day nurseries across a range of sizes, locations, and budgets. We’d like to wish Hannah and her family all the very best for the future, and extend our congratulations to the Banner family as they begin a very exciting new chapter.”
