K9 Playtime turns 2 today. We celebrated last year with a party and the same again this year. However opening day on the 21st November 2022 was far from a party. I was frightened. I’d taken on a big unit with rent after just a few months of being a dog walker. I knew I always wanted to open a daycare but I didn’t realise it would happen just 7 months after becoming a dog walker.
My worries of making sure there was enough money to cover the big bills that come with running a daycare - making sure I made a great daycare one where rest, play and learning was at the heart of what we do and ultimately proving my dad wrong who told me I was crazy for leaving my stable job 😉
Two years on, 2 5* licences, an award, a full amazing team and being at capacity almost every day I am still amazed that I managed to make it work. But it isn’t I. It’s us and it’s you. It’s my team. It’s my family and friends. It’s everyone.
Without the complete love and belief in what we do we wouldn’t still be standing. Running a small business is extremely difficult finically, mentally and physically but it’s made that much easier by having the amazing clients we have.
Thank YOU for believing in us. Because of that we are celebrating today.
When you support a small business you support their families, their futures and their dreams.
With all my love and thanks for making my childhood dreams come true.
Love Rebecca & the amazing K9 Playtime family ❤️
