There are days when the weight feels heavier than I ever imagined.
Co-owning N&N Learning Tree Academy isn’t just about opening the doors each morning. It’s carrying the responsibility of every child who walks through them, every family who trusts us, every employee who depends on us, and every decision that affects the future of our center.
Every expense continues to rise. We have to make difficult decisions, stretch every dollar, and constantly figure out how to provide the very best care while keeping child care as affordable as possible for the families who trust and count us.
Those decisions are never easy.
There are moments of exhaustion. Moments where we wonder if we’re doing enough. Moments where the responsibility feels overwhelming.
But then…
A toddler runs into your arms because they missed you after you were in the hospital for a couple weeks.
A baby gives you the biggest smile when you walk into the infant room because they remember you.
A summer only school age parent give you a handwritten card expressing their gratitude.
Your toddler teacher stays late simply because she cares about the communication between herself and a parent.
And now I’m so thankful that I told my dad I wanted to start a center.
At N&N, we aren’t just watching children while their parents work. We’re helping raise confident, kind, curious little humans. We’re celebrating first steps, first words, potty-training victories, new friendships, and so many milestones that families trust us to be part of.
To our families: thank you. Thank you for trusting us with your greatest treasures. Thank you for supporting us through changes, cheering us on, referring your friends, sending encouraging messages, and reminding us that what we do matters.
The hard days will always come. That’s part of this journey. But so will the moments that remind us exactly why N&N Learning Tree Academy exists.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for allowing us to be part of your family’s story.
Here is to 1 year of being licensed (August 15th 2025) and open (August 18th 2025)!!
