Niños Sanos, Seguros & Felices: Building Stronger Families Through Neuroscience and Connection
For Ingrid Sanchez, the mission was clear: to create a space that supports children’s growth, well-being, and education by equipping parents with neuroscience-based parenting tools. This vision led to the birth of Niños Sanos, Seguros & Felices (Healthy, Safe & Happy Children). Her innovative business focuses on young mothers, separated parents, and Hispanic heads of households in California, guiding them to strengthen their connections with their children and build thriving, joyful families. Through effective parenting techniques and practical tools, the company empowers families to reach their full potential.
Starting the business came with significant challenges for Ingrid Sanchez. The economic hurdles of securing permits, licenses, and basic equipment to launch her company were overwhelming at times. However, with the guidance and support of Access SBDC, the path forward became clear. “Access SBDC provided the light we needed to move forward,” Ingrid reflects.
Through SBDC’s online training programs, Ingrid gained crucial skills in Google tools, network marketing, financial management, and entrepreneurial strategies. A Kiva microcredit loan proved instrumental, covering essential startup costs like licenses and equipment, while also enabling the business to expand its reach. Leveraging social media and community networks, she connected with schools, sports clubs, and Catholic communities, significantly growing its client base and visibility.
For its founder, Niños Sanos, Seguros & Felices represents a dream realized: a way to uplift families, foster understanding, and create lasting bonds between parents and children. With the support of Access SBDC and a growing network, the business continues to make a profound difference in the lives of Hispanic families, one connection at a time.
