Achieving a 100% satisfaction rate  in a recent customer survey in May 2026. Happy Faces Out of School Care Ltd provides safe and reliable before and after school care, term time only at Claypool Primary School. The Company was established in 2016.

The setting is owned and strategically managed by Jane Casey, mum of three. Jane set up the first before and after school club back in 2006 at Claypool Primary School (under a different registration) due to working full time and not having any family close by to help with the school runs.

‘When my first child started primary school I had no idea how I was going to get my child to and from school in school hours and still be able to work full time.  I also didn’t like the offsite setting he was attending, being collected and taken to a building half a mile away where he was just placed in front of a television with no activities organised. Luckily I had a friend who had set up a club in Croston in Chorley, so I used their model, took as much advice as I could and used the skills I had acquired in the public and private sector to make it a success’.

Since then Jane has gone on to acquire a Teaching Assistant Level 3 to ensure she has the right qualification to support the settings.

‘It has grown since it was first registered and we have a team of over 5 staff. I consider myself very lucky to be working alongside such a great team of dedicated and enthusiastic staff’.

The team consists of qualified staff including Level 3.
