A high-powered personality in the fashion industry decides she wants to move into the education space. And she is successful in her first attempt to create a beautiful space for parents to work and children to learn. But, what happens when our education entrepreneur - Keltse Bilbao - decides she wants to take her concept from California to New York and beyond. In this episode of Breaking the Grade, you will learn:


  • How Keltse went from fashion to families and created a super sleek and successful daycare plus co-working space for parents – Big and Tiny – in Santa Monica, California;


  • How her first East coast location is doing – and how she has created demand and a waiting list for the new location;


  • And why this education entrepreneur – from the fashion world – thinks she can redefine how daycare is managed (and maybe even take on the big players at Bright Horizons).
