Dianne Lumsden-Earle, chief childcare and operations officer at iStep, said: "Home From Home is exactly the kind we want to work with – they are providing excellent outcomes for the children, and we hope to help them continue to do so and even improve. “The nursery has a brilliant reputation and I would like to thank the previous owners for allowing us to be part of its bright future.
