Well what can we say - ITS BEEN A BLAST. 🥰

After a 4am start today to finally get ready for the mini boss’ birthday party and a final clear out I’m finally home to take it all in and think what an amazing journey we have been on. I’ve managed not to cry too many times as we have been so incredibly lucky to meet so many amazing families during our time open. ❤️

We wish we could stay but the little boss has to come first and life sometimes gives us a good reminder of this and we have to listen. Our little ones are only little once so here’s to us all making amazing memories with our little people. Time to put this dream on hold for a little while and feel totally grateful we had the chance to make our little space and share that with you all. The best is yet to come.

Here’s to the future and new adventures. Thank you you have all been amazing 🥰

We will post other items for sale over the next few weeks as we’ve just not had time since deciding to close.

28/01/2023

Well today was our final play session and we celebrated a gorgeous first birthday with an amazing family this afternoon. We have had some wonderful soft toys made including Barky and Benjamin and it’s been a brilliant way to mark our final day open. Thank you ❤️ Sorry no photos again today we just enjoyed it and soaked it in so lovely seeing the little ones today enjoying the space - it’s the best feeling and we are so glad we had the opportunity to make this space.

Tomorrow we have parties on the morning and then we will be organising items ready for collection and also additional sale items too. Please come from 2:30-3;30 to collect your items and/or purchase any others. Cash payment on the day please. I’ll be going through orders tomorrow lunchtime to check collections and interested parties so please ensure you come and collect items as anything left at 3:30 will not be kept it will be posted for immediate collection by any interested person as we’d like to have all items gone by late afternoon tomorrow. If you no longer want an item please drop us a message.

Thank you to everyone for their understanding and also for collecting selected items today as it’s making things so much easier. We have so many resources to go through still but the priority for now is the items in the space we will then look at other items - again thank you for your patience what can I say I love buying things for our sessions so much. We will not be able to respond to individual messages this evening or in the morning so please bare with me and I’ll try to answer messages after 1:30 tomorrow. Thank you again for the past 6 months we’ve loved it and just wish we could do it all but we can’t - Penny will only be little once and when life gives us those reminders that life is short we have to listen to them ❤️

27/01/2023

22/01/2023

❤️IMPORTANT NOTICE - WE ARE CLOSING ON SUNDAY 29th JANUARY. ❤️

We have had the most amazing time at our space and now due to personal reasons and life events reminding us life is short. I now want to spend as much time with my own little person whilst she is little and make more Magical Memories as you just never know what life will throw your way.

As many of you know since opening the space I have worked almost every evening, weekend and school holiday as well as my full time teaching post and leadership role in school and this means I haven’t been with my little person as much as I’ve wanted - like someone reminded me today the space is named after her and that’s because everything I do is for her and so is the decision to close.

We would like to thank everyone for the most amazing time in our space, for their support and for helping us make some amazing memories at the space. We’ve loved all the amazing events, birthday celebrations and specials as well as getting to know you all and making new friends.

We will be open this week as usual and close after Saturday mornings play session for bookings and end with parties - which couldn’t be more perfect as we love sharing these moments with our families.

We want to extend a special thank you our family and friends for your amazing support through everything, to all the families who had their birthdays booked with us (in the next 12 weeks) and who have listened and fully understand our reasons for cancelling and leaving the space immediately and also to my amazing team ERIN AND JANE who have simply been fabulous - I couldn’t be more grateful for you both.

We have loved every minute, are so pleased we made this gorgeous space and that we were lucky enough to do this in our local community.

All of our toys, furniture and items will be sold and need to be collected after our parties on Sunday so please message if there is anything of interest as we’d like everything to go to a loving new home.

So a massive thank you from Penny and me (Clare) x

Whilst the little one is napping, when we are snuggled on the sofa, a little quality favourite tv programme for little legs whilst I create posts or when I’m off on school holidays and my mam can have my little girl for an hour or two is when I love to plan new timetables and events for our families at Penny Lane.

As many of you know I’m a full time teacher, early years leader and a single mammy so my planning time is always when I can grab some time and works around my Little person but over Christmas school holidays this year I was busy planning and outlining plans for the next four months - Im hardwired to plan in school terms and that’s still how I like to work for our space to. 😂

Although we outline the plans for our space I always like to perfect the vision for them
In my head first and resource them well so my neighbours who take in all my parcels 📦and the delivery drivers and I know each other well now 😂

So over the next few months we have so many exciting events, special birthday’s to celebrate with families and our new classes to establish and we are excited to be sharing these plans with you all very soon ❤️

16/01/2023

Tuesdays are all about 🎶MUSIC AND RHYME EXPLORERS 🎶AND play space sessions. This week Jane will be leading our music session and play space will
also be available.

With so many new families discovering us here at Penny Lane Parties and Play I thought I’d take the time to reintroduce myself and the business. The photo in the top left is of my little girl Penny (AKA The mini business partner) on her first birthday - the day I decided I wanted to launch Penny Lane.

Im a qualified primary school teacher of 15 years who has specialised in early years education for the last 13 Years of my career. Throughout that time I have taught hundreds of children in nursery and reception to read, write and make friends. Ive helped them to share and take turns and to become independent and curious learners. I continue to do this which is why you often see me leading weekend and school holiday special sessions, birthday parties or simply enjoying being in the play space with my not so little girl and talking to our families.

My little girl was extremely poorly with allergies and reflux for her first year meaning she would scream in pain when feeding or effortlessly vomit after a feed meaning joining classes and finding a space where I felt comfortable as well as her was very difficult and there was nothing close by I could go to regularly. When we did manage to get to a class the relief and love I felt from other families when I was there was amazing and I wanted to bring that to my local community.

Just after my little girls 1st birthday covid hit and although our team became stronger the isolation of being in the same four walls with only walks
each day to help really made me realise the power of time spent with other parents and their children not only for our children but for us parents too. This combined with me currently working in school and seeing the long term effects of covid on our youngest children made me more determined to set up a space for parents and their young children where they felt safe, relaxed and allowed parents and children to socialise in a space designed with children’s learning and development at the heart of it (play with the correctly thought out resources is the most effective way to learn but we don’t tell the children that they just have fun!!!!!).

After searching for a site locally to serve our community we found our beautiful space thanks to our amazing landlord and Penny Lane Parties and Play was founded. We’ve now been open for almost 6 months and have our team in place with Jane and Erin (both qualified early childhood educators) both settling into their new roles so thank you to everyone who has made them feel so welcome whilst they get used to Penny Lane.

We have so many exciting plans for the year ahead and a range of exciting new sessions to bring to you in the spring time. But for now we’d like to thank you all for supporting our business it really does mean the world to us ❤️

PS THE PHOTO IS OF ME WHEN IM NOT SLEEP DEPRIVED AND DO MY HAIR AND MAKEUP 😂

Not as good second time around 😂 but love how she makes up stories now

Lots of you know that I am a primary school teacher and that’s why you don’t see me much during the week in our play space unless it is a school holiday or a weekend. Well the mini business partner (AKA Penny Aged 3 years and 9 months)has shown how clever she is getting these past two days. She can now orally blend words with and without pictures most of the time. We have never formalised any learning with her and all her learning including this is all been learnt through experiences and play. I’ve always believed play is the best thing to support young children’s development (ask my wonderful team who I work with in school) and that’s why I opened our play centre at the start of the summer holidays to support young children’s learning and development whilst giving parents and family members a space to relax in and get to know one another. Our children are simply amazing we love watching all of our children learning and developing and would love you to share your proud mammy, daddy, grandparent moments with us so we can celebrate all those amazing milestones. Rolling over, sitting up, taking those first steps and saying all those amazing first words are simply amazing and something as parents we never forget so big shout out to all the parents watching those mini miracles everyday. Your awesome and your little people are so lucky to have you celebrating their every achievement. We look forward to seeing you all this Thursday and Friday and I personally cannot wait for the half term holidays to catch up and meet our amazing families who visit us and support us on this journey 😊
