Creating a first class business
James and Maria Sedgwick, Crosby Nursery
After significant local flooding James and Maria Sedgwick decided to change their business from a restaurant to a day nursery."As a husband and wife team consisting of a trained nurse and chef we felt we had a lot to offer our community by providing a fun and health day nursery service but unfortunately our profit expectations were not being met.
We were losing £1000 every week before we started working with ActionCOACH, Pauline Wright. After 6 weeks coaching we broke even and it's been onwards and upwards ever since " I'd comfortably say that our revenues have more than doubled thanks to our Coach.""Pauline has shown us a different way to look at our business " we're working on putting systems into the business to allow us the flexibility to do more of the things we want to do.""I'm proud to say that we're creating a first class business “ for us having a Coach has been a profitable experience."Crosby Nursery has recently been recognised as the best local nursery in Cumbria by SureStart and the News & Star Newspaper.
