Unique day nursery in Wilmslow changes hands

  • 9th April 2025

Specialist business property adviser, Christie & Co, has announced the sale of The POD Nursery in the affluent village of Wilmslow in Cheshire.

The POD is a unique, charming, and highly-successful children’s day nursery which has an effective operating capacity for 75 children.

Operating from within the grounds of Total Fitness Club, Handforth, The POD was established in 2022 by Sophie and Kane Mccumesky, an ambitious husband-and-wife team who, in a very short space of time, built a highly-successful business that has flourished financially and reputationally year on year.

The nursery decor and interior have been well thought out and carefully crafted to spark children’s imaginations and create a cosy, dream-like environment that feels like home.

Following a sales process with Sofia Beck at Christie & Co, The POD has been purchased by Kids Planet Day Nurseries, which now has over 230 day nursery settings across the UK.

Beck said: “It’s uncommon for a nursery business to flourish so rapidly, especially one that began operations during the pandemic.

“Therefore, it was no surprise that the sales process moved swiftly, given the remarkable opportunity it presented and the huge scope and potential for a new operator.”

The POD Nursery was sold for an undisclosed price.
