Claire is most definitely THE person to speak to for keeping your little ones creative and entertained!
We asked Claire to share why she loved providing creative activities in her community- this is what she said...
Why did you want to run your own business?
"I had been a freelancer in the past and absolutely loved it. After starting our family, we decided that running a business would be the best fit for a more balanced family life. It's hard work but incredibly rewarding."
What attracted you to The Creation Station?
"For me it was definitely about being part of a national brand. I loved the business framework that is offered, and that I had all the support, advice, and structure I could need to build a successful business."
Describe your highlights so far...
"Holding a 'Tiny Treasures' session in Doncaster where I saw customers who'd come to make a newborn keepsake when they had already been to my 'Baby Discover' and 'Little Explorer' pre-school classes with their first child. They enjoyed coming to The Creation Station Doncaster so much with their first child that they were now beginning their next creative journey with their second child - it was wonderful."
Don't just take our word for it, look what parents say about Claire & her classes...
How do you feel about the future?
"I am so excited! Knowing that I have the ability to shape and change my business, the opportunities are limitless. I am looking forward to working with even more schools this year, running more super fun after-school programmes and hosting even more sparkly and creative birthday parties in Doncaster!"
