Advanced Childcare Limited is a specialist provider of children’s care and education services with a combined portfolio of 49 homes, providing care services in rural, semi-rural and urban environments. Advanced Childcare Limited is funded by a US private equity group, GI Partners.

« I found Clairfield to have a very client centred approach, initially assisting us to develop an exit strategy that met the differing aspirations/needs of the partners. Clairfield’s sector knowledge and relationship were key in attracting the right buyer for Clifford House. We are delighted with the outcome. » – John Brierley, Managing Director
