About The Nurseries

We took ownership of The Counting House at Birstall in August 2006, giving up our full-time jobs to throw ourselves into running our own business, with a view to building a strong and well-recognised reputation for high quality childcare. The open-plan former Zion Chapel is an excellent building for childcare, lots of space and light and gives easy access to toys & resources for the children at all times.

Since those early days the business has gone from strength to strength, which led to us opening The Counting House at Heckmondwike in February 2008. Formerly known as New Royals Private Day Nursery the setting was in desperate need of some investment, some rejuvenation and a boost in morale for the staff. In simple terms we have ‘gutted’ the building and significantly modernised and re-decorated to create a fantastic looking nursery, inside & out, to meet the needs of all our children.

Both nurseries are Affiliated to Kirklees Surestart Partnership as well as being members of the National Day Nurseries Association.
