Happy Nook began with a simple intention: I wanted to create the kind of early childhood environment I wished existed when I was searching for care for my first child. As a mother of two now, I understand how important it is to find a place you can truly trust—somewhere safe, nurturing, and dependable, where children are supported as they grow.

After years working in fast-paced corporate environments, I saw how difficult it was for families to find care that felt both personal and thoughtfully designed. I wanted to build a place that offered the warmth of home with the intention and quality young children deserve.

​

I started small—an in-home program built around meaningful relationships, small groups, and spaces that felt calm, natural, and intentional. Over time, as I refined the program and connected with more families, I saw how powerful this approach was. Children thrived when they felt known; families felt supported when communication was strong; and a home-like setting created a sense of comfort that is often missing in early education.

​

Those early years shaped everything: what I value, how I teach, and what I believe children deserve. And as the program grew, so did the vision for what Happy Nook could become.
