Designing and building a new website

www.thecubfamily.co.uk

We implemented the Cub nursery brand through a custom-designed WordPress website with a clear user journey. The website has two key audiences – families and educators – and it was essential we appealed to both. The website clearly communicates the quality of Cub’s offering and their heartfelt values.


Directing a brand video

We created a storyboard and directed a video that beautifully communicated Cub’s core values. Buttercrumble partnered with a trusted videographer to produce an uplifting, captivating film to highlight the nursery’s mission, fostering appeal for educators and families alike. This compelling visual story showcased Cub’s welcoming, community-centred environment.

Developing a sub-brand

Buttercrumble developed a sub-brand for Cub to spotlight their unique "forest school" programme, which immerses children in outdoor learning. Set in their dedicated woodland space, this curriculum strand emphasises nature-based exploration and development. Our branding highlights this special offering, appealing to families who value outdoor experiences for early childhood growth.



The results

The partnership with Cub has led to a lasting collaboration, with Buttercrumble serving as their trusted Brand Guardian. Together, we’re continuously exploring creative ways to build Cub’s brand presence, from new initiatives to ongoing marketing, ensuring that their values and identity remain at the forefront as they grow and connect with more families.
