My Story

I’ve loved every minute of my journey!

An Idea is Born

My name is Ana Ojala.  I am a wife, mother, sister, and now a grandmother. I absolutely love my family. I have been a stay at home mom and a working mom.  When I was a working mom I used licensed and unlicensed childcare.  I understand the challenges of finding someone I can trust with what I value most in the world, my children.


One year my maternity leave was almost over and it literally hurt my heart to go back to work because I was not happy with the childcare choices available. I knew my children deserved better, I KNEW ALL children deserve better than the childcare choices that were available. Just because we're in a small community doesn't mean we have to settle for less than the best quality of care for our children!


I went back to school and finally created the kind of daycare that I wished I could have found for my children. For the past ten years I have owned and created childcare spaces that respect and value each child's individual development and celebrate all the joy and development that belongs to childhood. I am so excited to have my Early Learning Academy in Brooks! I love living and working in the community with all of you.  I absolutely love my chosen career and I absolutely love our sweet centre so much!
