Meet Laurie
Hi Everyone! My name is Laurie Hulsey and I am the
Owner/Director of Giggle Box Child Care. My husband and I, along with one dog, one inside cat, one barn cat and six chickens, live on our 30 acre farm in Greenbrier, Tennessee. Shaun and I have been married for six years. We are members of Temple Baptist Church in White House, TN.
I grew up in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, the youngest of four girls (and all together now "bless your Daddy's heart!") During my childhood, my Mother always kept children in our home. So at any
given time there was a houseful of children! During high school I took three years of child care and development in which two of those years, two friends and I built a day care on paper from the ground up and took it to competitions. Who would have guessed that one of us would actually do it!
I have always loved being around children and have always had a certain gift of having a child-like heart and mind. I am a creative person and have a very imaginative mind. I am a wife, sister, daughter, an aunt (of 7!), a gardener, baker, bird watcher, crafter, photographer, canner, homemaker and self-called artist. I also have seven certifications in adult, infant and child cpr, adult and child aed, first aid and pediatric first aid.
I have an exciting vision for Giggle Box Child Care! I hope that you and your family can be a a big part of it!

Our Farm
Our 30 acre farm is located in Greenbrier, Tennessee. We are actually on the outskirts of Greenbrier, closer to White House. Every year we have a large garden in which I, old-timey, can our produce for winter use. Also every year we raise pigs and hopefully, within the next couple of years, we will have our new barn complete and the farm fenced in to raise cows. Right now we just raise hay! We have six hens in which we collect anywhere from three to four eggs per day right now. Our farm borders my Father-In-Law's farm so it truly gives us about 100 acres to play on. Our farm has a wonderful creek in which I find myself playing in throughout the year. It offers excellent bird watching, hiking, wildflowers, wildlife, and unending outdoor fun.
Here is an Google Earth view of a portion of our farm, where the house is situated in comparison to where the day care sits at the road front.
