Kate Paiano - Tiny Travels

"Hi, I’m Kate, mum of two toddlers, avid traveller (before kids!) and passionate about equality and social change.

I have management experience in the travel and the event industry and studied Development Studies & Geography at SOAS (The School of Oriental and African Studies). I have travelled to 120 countries and have worked around the world.

I am always dreaming of future adventures. However, since having two children, travel is at the bottom of the priority list. I would love to take my young children to different countries, but it is not only expensive but also physically and mentally demanding.

After many conversations with other parents of young children, I learnt that we were not the only ones in this predicament. Consequently, I decided to find a way to create experiences for parents to help their young children learn about the world but in a way that is convenient, easy and affordable. I hope to provide a foundation for young children to be inspired to learn about the world so they can grow up to one day experience their favourite countries first hand; and if they have heritage from a different country, I hope to create a space where they can be proud of themselves and their family’s culture."

Lisa Watson - Spa Babies

"I’m Lisa and I’m founder and creator of Spa Babies.

Spa Babies was created on the back of severe anxiety and grief I had suffered during my two maternity leaves with my little boys. Both of my maternity leaves took me to dark places that I really struggled to get out of. So at the end of my final maternity leave I was determined to somehow turn it into a positive. In June 2019 Spa Babies was born.

Our Spa Babies experiences are focused on parents' mental health, where the focus is on the parents, with them leaving feeling relaxed and uplifted as well as creating the most magical memories along the way.

For Babies 0-10 months old it is A moment of Zen in the Chaotic Beginnings of Parenthood "

Anna Coggan, Caterpillar Music Newark

"My name is Anna Coggan and I am the very proud owner of Caterpillar Music Newark.  In 2024 I am celebrating my 10th year as a franchisee running fabulous multi sensory music classes for children under 5.  Prior to running my business I had been a primary school teacher for 20 years. While I never lost my passion for teaching, I found the pressure of the classroom alongside becoming a parent too much.  I now get to enjoy all the fun of my original profession without the extra stress!  I began my business with just 6 small classes and now, together with a small team of staff, run 32 sessions a week in community venues, nurseries, schools and care homes.   I love what I do and being a part of the incredible Children’s Activities Sector.

Hi I’m Krissy,

Over the last 12 years in the Children activity sector,  I’ve done it all. I’ve been the director of a London charity, a franchisee, a master franchisee, and a franchisor with a fantastic UK wide network and now a Children’s Activity Business Coach,  all whilst being a mother to 2 young ladies.

I’ve worked from the ground up and so I’ve experienced first-hand the highs and the lows of business ownership. I’ve felt the pain of failure and the absolute joy of success. I’ve worked with the best and the worst but throughout it all I have made it a key goal of mine to turn every hurdle into an opportunity to learn.

It’s this hard won knowledge that I would like to share with you through the Children’s Activity Business Academy. Whether you’re fresh to the idea of being your own boss and you’re simply looking for fresh breeze of motivation, or you’re a seasoned veteran looking for a fresh pair of eyes and a new perspective, I can be your ultimate coach for children’s activity business.

So, book a FREE discovery call today and let’s see what we can achieve together.

Nicola is the founder and director of Jigsaw Performing Arts Schools.  Nicola attended a weekend performing arts school in Bristol (her home town) as a child and it had a big impact on her life. After completing her professional training at Mountview Theatre School,  she was inspired to set up Jigsaw Arts in 1995 so more children could benefit from performing arts classes, giving them the confidence and social skills to achieve their full potential.  What’s more, Jigsaw Arts is enormous fun for all involved, students, staff and head office.

In 2013, Nicola felt Jigsaw had reached its full capacity with 22 schools and 2000 students across London.  This is when she decided to take the big step into the franchising world.  Nicola was keen to support other like-minded individuals who were passionate about running their own performing arts schools.  Nicola says, “ It’s one of the best decisions I ever made.  We are able to reach so many more children this way and I absolutely love training and supporting the Jigsaw franchisees to be confident business owners. We have a created a place to belong for our students and franchisees alike.”

If you would like to know more about running your own Jigsaw Performing Arts School and what a Jigsaw franchise is all about, you can contact Nicola and her team for an informal chat on 020 8445 0485 or email franchise@jigsaw-arts.co.uk.  You will also find more information here. www.jigsaw-arts.co.uk/franchise

S02 E6 - Claire Munday, Tappy Toes - Our 2023 Club Hub Award and Event Sponsors

Claire Munday is the founder and creator of Tappy Toes. She started dancing at the age of 3 and has danced all her life. After a successful 10 year career as a professional dancer she set up her own Dance school RISE Studios in Rickmansworth and Watford, Hertfordshire, and created the Tappy Toes brand and syllabus.

Having run the Tappy Toes toddler dance classes for a few years and being asked about setting them up in various other areas, Claire decided to franchise Tappy Toes so that children all over the UK could learn to dance in a fun and imaginative way. The Epping classes were set up after Claire made the move from Watford to Epping, Essex. Having taught them for a few years, Claire took time out to have her children and classes are now taught by the lovely Miss Jasmine. Over the years Claire has tweaked and added to the syllabus, introducing the Teeny Toes baby classes after having two children of her own and not finding a baby dance class for that age group, and expanding to offer Baby ballet classes, Tip Toes. Tappy Toes now offers dance classes for all babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers.

Claire’s mission is to get all our little ones moving, and to instil a real love of dance and the arts at a young age. Claire also teaches teenagers, and has noticed a real rise in teenage anxiety over the last few years. She is extremely passionate about introducing children to dance as young as possible, in the hope that they continue with it into adulthood. It is such a great stress reliever and releases those happy endorphins that keep our mental health strong! Find out more about our Franchise Opportunities

S02 E5 - Rachelle Hutt, Mess Around Ltd - Our 2023 Club Hub Award and Event Sponsors

"Hello, I am Rachelle proud owner of Mess Around Ltd and Sub-Editor at Business Success Network in Children’s Activity Providers.

Mess Around Ltd has been my passion for the last 4 years, starting life as a franchisee as it fitted my ethos and values on what Children’s activities should look like and then took over as franchisor from the lovely Krissy in 2021. We are all about children learning through play and allowing them experiences that they might not get at home. We want to bring families together to create memories, have fun and with no stress! As a primary teacher, I am well aware that Messy Play is so important to our children’s development but as a Mum, I understand the pain of not wanting it in the house! That’s why Mess Around is the perfect fit! Where else can you come and find over 12 different messy activities and not have to worry about cleaning up? http://www.messarounduk.com/

I started working with Stacey Calder at The Business Success Network 12 months ago, the pandemic hit our industry hard and I for one felt that we were forgotten, we play such an important part in the early development of our children (our future) that we should be recognised and championed alongside all the other industries out there, so we created a Children’s Activity Providers group and have just launched our first Magazine (at The Club Hub awards!) in our group we have lots of fellow activity providers but also lots of businesses to help scale and grow our business too. Almost like a one-stop shop! We plan to keep adding to the group and will be hosting meet-ups and masterclasses too! http://www.facebook.com/groups/bsnchildrensactivityproviders"
