Made with the whole family in mind.
Moxi started with a question most parents know by heart: why does finding good childcare feel this hard? We built the answer.
Traditional daycare wasn’t workingSo we fixed it.
The Old Way✗ Rigid schedules that don't flex with your life
✗ 1:10 ratios and chaotic classrooms
✗ Waiting 18 months on a waitlist to enroll
✗ Transactional drop-offs and pick-ups
The Moxi Way
✓ Book 3, 6, or 9 hours of care whenever you need it
✓ Industry-low caregiver ratios for higher quality care
✓ A built-in village of families in the same season as yours
✓ Montessori-inspired play that makes kids genuinely love learning
Our vALUESWe built the place we wished existed.
Moxi was founded by a mom who was tired of choosing between quality childcare and everything else.
Families deserved a place where all of it could coexist. Not a daycare with a coworking desk in the corner. Not a gym with a kids' room. A beautiful, functional space where children thrive, parents get their time back, and everyone feels like they belong.
Care comes first, always.
Every classroom ratio, every hiring decision, every dollar we spend — it starts with what's best for the children in our care.
Families deserve flexibility.
Life with young kids is unpredictable. Our same-day booking, flexible scheduling, and no minimums are built for families who need wiggle room.
Parents need community.
Moxi is a neighborhood hub where families connect with each other, kids make friendships, and parents find their people. Every space and event is designed for real connection.
Teachers are the foundation.
Our caregivers are trained, well-compensated, and supported above industry standards because everything depends on them.
The details matter.
From the sink height in the bathrooms to the books in the classrooms to the way we communicate with families, we sweat the small stuff. Parents notice, and children deserve it.

MEET CORI
Cori Fain-Forrest
Founder + CEO
Born in Birmingham, Cori worked across startups, nonprofits, and social impact before deciding to create her own. When she became a mom and hit a wall trying to find childcare (long waitlists, all-or-nothing schedules, inflexible days), she got to work changing it.
She founded Moxi out of love for working mothers, the educators who care for other people's kids, and families that deserve better.
