From Dream to Daycare – the story of Play N Learn

Raegen has been running daycare facilities in many forms since her very first in-home daycare for 12 children in 1997. Over the years, Raegen found herself continually expanding to meet the growing demand for quality childcare in the Great Falls region. But operating multiple facilities was taking Raegen away from what she loved the most – spending time with the kids.

In 2015, Raegen came to Great Falls Development Authority (GFDA) with a vision – she wanted to consolidate into one, state-of-the art facility. The only problem – she needed $2 million dollars. Fearing her dream might never become reality, the team at Great Falls Development Authority got to work.
