The Little Town Story
Friends of almost 30 years, Danielle Ford and Alex Gerlaugh grew up across the street from one another for most of their childhoods. The two remained close throughout their lives as they attended different colleges, pursued advanced degrees, and set out on their respective career paths.
As they both settled down in Columbus as adults, the inspiration for Little Town was born from Danielle’s expertise as a Speech-Language Pathologist and Alex’s knack for seeing a challenge and finding a solution. A mom of two herself, Danielle found that while she could find places for her kids to play, she couldn’t find one that combined all the things both she and her kids needed; an imaginative, safe environment with spaces designed specifically to encourage their development, and a reprieve for parents to have a moment of relaxation, too. Her lifelong friend and the ultimate fun aunt, Alex, was a natural choice for a partner. And so, Little Town became what it is today!
