What happens when a woman leaves a high-powered engineering career and finds her calling in early childhood education? Tune in to this inspiring episode of the Child Care Genius Podcast as Brian and Carol Duprey welcome back special guest Nancy Morrison, owner of The Little School in Louisiana. Known for her trailblazing spirit and commitment to quality, Nancy shares how her center became the first in her region to earn a five-star state rating—and why she never shies away from being the first to try something new.

Listen in as Nancy opens up about her early beginnings in child care, the bold decision to purchase her own center, and how her journey as a business owner has shaped both her professional and personal life. She talks about what it’s like to lead a tight-knit team, serve families from all backgrounds, and create a culture of consistency that keeps staff and parents coming back year after year.

Join us as Nancy reflects on her experience as a long-time member of the Child Care Genius University coaching program, including the mindset shifts, business strategies, and powerful relationships that helped her grow. You’ll also hear the heartwarming moment she shared the conference stage with her daughter to receive the Salutatorian award—and why she believes coaching and community are essential for anyone starting a child care business.

From running a five-star school to showing up as a confident leader, Nancy’s story is packed with wisdom, encouragement, and practical advice for child care owners in every stage of the journey. Don’t miss this honest and uplifting conversation—you’ll walk away reminded of the power of purpose, persistence, and connection.
