Solicitors for buying, selling and managing Day Nurseries and Pre-Schools
When purchasing a nursery or pre-school, there are many legal and regulatory requirements to consider. We are leading solicitors for day nurseries and pre-schools, acting for buyers, sellers, and operators of existing businesses. Our in-depth knowledge of the sector, including issues related to Ofsted requirements and the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), enables us to add value to your business.

Our Day Nurseries and Pre-Schools experience
Among the areas on which we regularly advise are:
- Initial considerations on the sale of an existing business, including the structure of the sale and ‘pre-sale due diligence’ to ensure the business is as clean as possible.
- Key considerations for buyers including funding, commercial aspects, and Ofsted requirements.
- Day-to-day issues for existing owners, including parent contracts and property matters.
