Join the Lots for Tots Team! An amazing opportunity to work from home around family and be your own boss Lots for Tots Derby Franchise is for Sale. As spring 2017 will mark
my 5th anniversary of being the Derby franchisee I have decided to take on a new challenge and so we are now looking for a new Derby Editor. I can’t believe how quickly that time has gone and how much fun it has been. I have learnt a lot and also met some like minded and inspirational people along the way. I bought the Derby franchise in spring 2011 from Nadine who is the Managing Director of Lots for Tots Ltd. Since I first joined the Team Nadine has secured franchisees for North Derbyshire, two in Nottingham and one in Staffordshire. She also runs the Bump to Five Show in Derby and the East Midlands Baby and Toddler Show which run along side the Derby and Notttingham magazines. We are looking for somebody who would like to work from home and be their own boss, somebody who is passionate about the magazine & also passionate about supporting your local area & local parents. To be the new Editor. You will need: • Experience in design, sales, marketing or running a business • Keen admin skills • An eye for design • No other work commitments 6
This opportunity would ideally suit someone with children in Nursery, PreSchool or School as you need time in the day to commit to the business. The perfect franchisee would have a sales or marketing background, be highly driven to make a profitable success of the magazine and equally as important, get the useful information out to as many parents as possible. Being a Lots for Tots Editor involves tele-sales, social media knowledge, admin such as database entry and invoicing, editing & design (training given) and distribution 4 times a year. The magazine is quarterly and revolves around school/ Nursery holiday times so it suits your family. The franchise is a 5 year contract. You get full training and head office support. You would be investing in a business that has huge growth potential. All the hard work of setting up the company has been done, all it needs is the right person with the drive to grow it. After the 5 year term you can renew or sell it on at a profit. If you want to create the lifestyle balance of satisfying work fitting in with family life, then please get in touch.

Derby’s ultimate fitness classes for new mums! No time to exercise now you have a baby? Don’t worry - just bring them with you! Join Beccy Salmon, the founder of Buggybabes for a safe and effective postnatal workout for mums with their little ones in tow.
The classes are suitable for all levels of fitness and the first class is free so just book a class and see if you enjoy it. No more excuses - you can do it!
Having had three children herself means that Beccy has first hand Knowledge of what a roller coaster of an experience having a baby is! Not only is your life turned upside down but your body can become somewhat unrecognisable too. Chances are if you used to go to the gym before you had your baby, you don’t have the time, or energy now - and now is the time when you most want to lose some weight! This is why exercising with your baby is so good - you get to take part in a fun workout in the fresh air without having to worry about childcare. And you’ll meet lots of other new mums in the same boat too. It’s much more fun pushing your buggy in a group and Darley Park is such a beautiful park to do it in. You won’t even notice you’re working out! There’s a great little cafe for a cup of tea after! Babies, toddlers and older children in the holidays can come along with you. You’ll take the class at your own pace so don’t worry about keeping up, the exercises will be suitable for mums with newborns and mums with toddlers and the next on the way! The little ones love the pushing and watching you being pushed! 8
