Gelston was founded by Laura Ward and Annemarie Capper, who have over 18 year's experience working in childcare, from primary school and local government settings to the very best private day nurseries. In January 2013 Laura and Annemarie established "Buckshaw Bunnies Childminders" and from their first Ofsted inspection were awarded an outstanding across all areas of their provision. The highest award possible! In less than 12 months, Laura and Annemarie realised an opportunity to expand their setting and help service the growing childcare demands within the area, which resulted in their move to Gelston Manor. Laura and Annemarie continue to remain focused and passionate about delivering the highest level of service within childcare and are determined to continue their legacy of Buckshaw Bunnies and become the leading childcare provider within the area.
