A Huyton nursery has been given permission to expand its capacity after the sudden closure of another nursery caused a surge in demand.
Honey Pot Nursery, based at Beech House on Huyton Church Road, submitted an application to Knowsley Council in March just prior to the sudden closure of the nearby Orchard Day nursery.
When the Orchard closed without warning following an industrial dispute, it left dozens of parents struggling to find childcare for their children.
