When I became a mom, I quickly learned just how important it is to find a daycare you can trust. Each of my children started their daycare journey early-

• Landon was just 12 weeks old, now 17!

• Caelyn started at 16 weeks, now 13!

• and Griffin joined at only 8 weeks, now 9!

For almost 10 years, my husband traveled for work, leaving on Sunday nights and returning on Fridays. That meant much of the day-to-day fell on me. With three young children, working full-time, and managing the busy rhythm of life, those years were some of the hardest of my life. By the time we picked up from daycare, got home, did homework, ate dinner, took baths, and tucked into bed-it felt like the days were a blur.

But through those years, one constant gave me peace of mind: knowing my children were safe, cared for, and loved while I was at work. Daycare became a second home for them, a place where they learned, played, and built the foundation for who they are today.

Looking back, I see how much those early years mattered. My children grew to be smart, social, and confident-equipped with a toolbox of skills they built in those early childhood settings. Those experiences shaped them and gave them the tools to navigate life.

And oh, the summers-those were my breath of fresh air. The chance to slow down, savor time with my kids, and make memories together. I cherished those months deeply.

That is why I created Scribbles Learning Center.

Here, I want families to feel that same peace of mind I once felt. Scribbles will be a place where children are nurtured, celebrated, and given the strong start they deserve-while parents can step away each day with trust and confidence.

At Scribbles, families will find:

• A safe, loving environment where children can grow and thrive.

• Teachers who understand that caring for someone's child is the most important job in the world.

• A community that supports not only children but also parents navigating the busy seasons of life.

Just as I once searched for the right place for my family, Scribbles was built to be that place for yours. A center where you can drop off your child each morning and know, without hesitation, "They're in good hands."
