Busy Lizzie’s was formed in 2005, though a pre-school of some kind has been in the Scout Hut for decades. It was originally owned by Liz (hence the name), however in 2019 she gave the business to her two daughters, Freya and Hannah (both of whom work in the setting as well) and her Deputy Manager – Claire who had been part of the nursery since it first began.
Claire took over as the Manager and she is closely supported by both Freya and Hannah in the development of the nursery. In 2021 we opened a Holiday Club based at Kingsham Primary School which currently runs one week of the Easter Holidays and 4 weeks in the middle of the summer holidays.
Our aim is always to be a nursery that cares – not just about the children but about the family as a whole. We want to be a nursery where children learn and develop through stimulating play experiences and are enabled to achieve their full potential in life. The early years of a child’s life are far more important than most people realise. The brain changes and develops more than it does in any other period of a persons life and so it is important that we get it right!
