135-Year-Old Nashville Childcare Organization Expanding as Industry Continues to Navigate Struggles

The YMCA’s Nashville childcare facility on Trinity Lane is closing, and its students will relocate to Fannie Battle Day Home for Children, a 135-year-old nonprofit expanding its services. Fannie Battle plans to renovate the Trinity Lane space to accommodate more students, including younger children, and launch a $3.5 million capital campaign amid Nashville’s childcare crisis marked by high costs and funding cuts.
