Imagine returning to Ohio jobless and stumbling into an unexpected opportunity that changes your life forever. We were offered positions at a local church, which led us to purchase a struggling daycare. With no money and financial hardships, our grit and creative strategies kept the business alive and thriving.

From long hours to emotional hurdles, our story is a testament to the perseverance required to turn a vision into reality.
