One of the things we value most at Carry 117 is being willing to learn.

This week, our daycare nannies and leadership team had the opportunity to spend time with the incredible team at Hope for Korah learning how to continue growing the quality of care, structure, and experience we provide for the children in our daycare program.

We originally started the Carry 117 daycare as a way to support our employees during one of the most vulnerable seasons of life. We never wanted mothers to feel forced to choose between caring for their child and keeping a stable income. Creating a safe place for children to stay during the workday allows women to continue working while knowing their children are cared for until they reach school age.

During our visit, our team observed so many thoughtful systems and practices that create a healthy, engaging, and nurturing environment for children and staff alike — from structured routines and learning activities to hygiene practices, child development strategies, organization, creativity, and the overall atmosphere of the space.

We are so grateful for organizations who lead with excellence and generosity, and who are willing to share what they’ve learned along the way. Growth requires humility, curiosity, and a willingness to keep getting better…and we’re committed to all three.

Thank you, Hope for Korah, for challenging and inspiring us.
The women and children of Carry 117 will be better because of it.

This is not charity.
This is craftsmanship.
This is opportunity.

Every stitch represents a woman building income, stability, and a future for her family.

This is what it looks like to choose empowerment over handouts.

This is Carry 117.
