Established in March 2020, Somers House Nursery is a reputable 80-place day nursery that offers exceptional year-round childcare for babies from six months, toddlers, and pre-schoolers up to five years. It occupies a brilliantly converted property in Reigate, and no expense has been spared in making this the standout provider in the local area.
The setting was formerly part of Cavendish Lodge Nurseries and Pre-Schools, which is owned by Jodie and Kevin Potter, and brought to market to allow the pair to concentrate on their other two London-based day nurseries.
Following a confidential sales process with Nick Brown and Sophie Willcox at Christie & Co, it has been sold to Kids Planet Day Nurseries, which now owns over 240 settings across the UK.
Jodie and Kevin Potter, the former owners of Somers House Nursery, comment, “Selling Cavendish Lodge Nursery Reigate was never part of our plan, but it was important that if we ever did, it would be to people who shared our family-centred ethos. The Kids Planet team impressed us from the outset with their personal approach and the warmth of a family-run organisation, far removed from the more corporate alternatives that we met along the way. We’re reassured knowing the nursery will continue under a team who truly understands and values its character. We wish Kids Planet every success for the future at Somers House."
Nick Brown, Director & Head of Brokerage – Childcare & Education at Christie & Co, comments, “It has been a pleasure working with Kevin and Jodie. It’s always hard for owners when they have poured so much of their time, love, and effort into creating something special - when it’s time to let go, this can be a challenge. They can now concentrate on their other nurseries which are located closer to where they live. They should be very proud of what they have achieved at Somers house over the last five years.”
Somers House Nursery was sold for an undisclosed price.
