Create a Preschool With Your Friends and Family – with Shatoya Gibson

    If you want to create a preschool with your friends and family, listen to today’s Preschool All Stars story: Shatoya Gibson was working on starting her own massage therapy business when pandemic hit. That derailed her plans and she ended up getting a work-from-home job. But her plans were to homeschool her own kids, and that wasn’t possible with her new position. One day, she came across an ad from Joy, and after talking to an old college friend, they decided to start an online preschool business together! Listen in to discover how you can start a preschool with your friends and family, too!

    Shatoya Gibson and her best friend had spent many evenings in college dreaming about creating their own school. But as life happened, their dream remained just a dream. Until a pandemic happened, and Shatoya was faced with the scary task of starting over again. That is when she decided that this was the time to return to those dreams and make them into a reality!

    After reading Joy’s book, Shatoya callid up that old college friend and convinced her that now was the time to finish what they started so many years ago. Her friend was immediately on board, and they got to work!

    With the help of Joy and the Preschool All Stars,Shatoya signed up 11 families before she even opened! Her founding family script was a success, and her soft launch has been going great. Joy’s program took the guesswork out of everything so she was able to focus on the important things instead of getting stuck on the small details.

    Now that her virtual preschool is a success, Shatoya is already thinking of opening a local preschool. She has not only recruited her best friend to help run her school, but she has her husband and mom involved in teaching classes, as well! She is now homeschooling like she wanted to, and has so many ideas of how she wants to grow her business.
