‘Hi! I’m Louise, mum of two and owner of World of Play. What started as a little idea & dream I’d had for years has exceeded all my expectations! To see my vision come together and watch so many children everyday enjoy something I’ve created will never get old! I feel extremely lucky to wake up every day and want to go to work. I have the best team working alongside me, who are all so knowledgeable. Their kindness and passion for early years shines through everyday and I feel so grateful they’ve been on this journey with me.’
