Good Beginnings Childcare Center Closes

Another Ruston business is in transition. This time, its Good Beginnings Childcare on Pearl Street. Bev Wombacher started a licenced home daycare in 1983 and expanded the business to the building on Pearl on April Fools Day 1991. After 26 fruitful years, its finally time to close the doors on this chapter.

At its height, Good Beginnings occupied 3 buildings with 92 children and 19 staff members. They even operated on Saturdays and stayed open until midnight for many years. There's no way to guess how many children went through those doors over the decades; but many, many have happy memories of friends, fun and play.

One building was sold a few years ago and another was converted to Ladies Workout Express. Bev reports she plans on offering more classes and expanding the gym to the last daycare building. But before she can make that conversion, there are lots of things to clear out. So a sale will be held this weekend. Here is the flyer:
