Fantastic foundations Monkey Puzzle: Delivering outstanding childcare


Pioneers in what they do, they were the first to franchise day nurseries aiming to help people contribute to communities through business. Even now as one of the largest nursery groups they have retained their core family values. In 2002, Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries launched their very first childcare setting in Hertfordshire.


A 46


market leader in the franchised nursery sector, Monkey Puzzle are the the third- largest nursery group overall in the UK.


For owners Mark and Rebecca Crosby it was the beginning of a hugely successful journey into the day nurseries industry. Richard Blunden, CEO, says: “We’ve been given


a fantastic foundation from our founders, Mark and Rebecca Crosby. Being the first franchised day nurseries business in the UK means that we’ve been established for over 15 years as a franchisor and continue to move forwards at pace, growing the team and bringing breadth to our overall offering.”
