It can be extremely difficult for parents to leave their babies behind in a daycare full of strangers, which is why one mom was so thankful when she finally found a daycare that she could trust to keep her 2-year-old daughter happy and safe while she was at work.
Brittney Nichols knew it might be challenging to find the right daycare for her 2-year-old daughter, who suffers from some complications after being born prematurely, but could tell her little girl was in good hands after seeing how excited daycare teacher Christy Owens was when she started the day and greeted all the children in the mornings.
“Every single morning when I drop my daughter off Christy is full of joy,” Nichols explained. “Christy is always so amazingly happy and kind. She treats the children as if they are her own. They all love her as do we the parents.
One Sunday morning, however, Nichols spotted a woman walking on the side of the road carrying a bible on the way to church, and as she passed by she realized it was her daughter’s daycare teacher.
Nichols pulled over to ask why Christy was walking such a long way instead of driving, and learned that not only did Christy not have a car, but she was never able to get her license, which meant she had to walk every single day to the daycare no matter what the weather was like.”I felt like God spoke within me to inquire about her transportation. Long story short Christy did not own a vehicle and had never had the opportunity to own one or get a driver’s license….until today.”
Nichols didn’t have the money to buy Christy a car on her own, but knew she had to help. After approaching other parents and coworkers, they were able to raise enough money to buy Christy a car and lessons at a driving school.
Watch the entire video below to see Christy’s incredible reaction to the generous gift.
