A local daycare owner is helping more parents by launching another site in Jacksonville.
Brown had a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new site on Blanding Boulevard Saturday afternoon. It is on the city’s west side.Brown says she has a passion for helping single moms.
“I know that growing up I was a single mom,” Brown said. “It was very hard for me. Once I realized how to provide quality care, and how to be an asset to my community, I wanted to continue to spread the love through the city.”Shakia Richardson’s 4-year-old daughter attends the daycare, but leading up to Saturday, Richardson did not have a car.
Instead, she had to ask friends, ride-share companies, and even Brown for rides to get her daughter to the center.“No more worrying,” Richardson said. “No more begging people, asking for rides. I’m not even calling [Brown] anymore to ask.” Overall, 175 children are enrolled in Brown Bear Learning Centers. Altogether there are now five different locations including one in Orlando.
