Peter Lynn and Partners Solicitors Advises on MBO of Swansea Nursery.
The future of Treforys Tiny Tots Day Nursery is in safe hands, thanks to a seamless management buyout (MBO) led by Peter Lynn and Partners Solicitors alongside Ferguson & Peters Chartered Accountants.
The transition ensures stability for staff, parents, and most importantly, the children, as long-standing managers Emma Bendle and Lauren Smith officially take the reins from founders Julie and Phillip Trick.
The deal was facilitated by Peter Lynn and Partners’ Corporate Solicitors, Rob Cherry and James Lewis-Hyndman, who ensured that every legal aspect of the transaction was handled with expertise and efficiency.
This major milestone not only secures the future of the much-loved nursery but also stands as a testament to how proper legal guidance can help businesses transition smoothly.
The MBO came about when Tracey Jones, Director at Ferguson & Peters Chartered Accountants, saw an opportunity for Emma and Lauren to take ownership. Understanding the complexity of such a deal, she immediately referred them to Swansea’s leading corporate legal team – Peter Lynn and Partners.
“When we first explored the possibility of taking over the nursery, we knew we needed a legal team that truly understood our business and could guide us every step of the way,” said Emma Bendle. “From the outset, Peter Lynn and Partners provided expert advice and made what could have been a stressful process incredibly straightforward.”
Her co-owner, Lauren Smith, echoed these sentiments: “We had so much support from James and Rob throughout the process. Their knowledge, professionalism, and ability to navigate the legal intricacies of the MBO were second to none. We couldn’t have done this without them.”
One of the most reassuring aspects of the buyout is that parents and staff will experience no disruption. The daily operations of the nursery will continue as usual, with Emma and Lauren maintaining the high standards that have made Treforys Tiny Tots such a respected childcare provider.
James Lewis-Hyndman, Corporate Solicitor at Peter Lynn and Partners, expressed his enthusiasm for the deal: “It has been a pleasure to work with Emma and Lauren on this transaction. We always strive to support businesses in achieving their growth and succession plans and seeing Treforys Tiny Tots transition so smoothly into the hands of its existing managers is a fantastic outcome.”
