Forty new jobs for Coalisland as nursery expands

by Q Radio News

Forty new jobs have been created in Coalisland as a nursery continues to expand.

Busy Kids Daycare already has a base in Clonoe which opened five years ago.

Part of the investment for the new facility has been supported by Danske Bank.

 The decision to open a second nursery was the direct result of demand for childcare places.

One hundred and twenty eight children will be cared for in the 7,000 square feet premises.

Martina O’Hanlon, Owner of Busy Kids Daycare, says she loves working with children.

“It has always been what I’ve wanted to do, which is why I began my career as a teacher. Then, after 13 years of teaching, and having my third child, I decided to take a career break. I found it very difficult to find childcare places so I decided to open my own daycare facility,” she explains.

The majority of spaces are already filled, however, there are some spaces still available which shall be allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis at the Open Day on Saturday (12th August).

Martina says she would like to thank the community and Danske Bank for their continued support.
