Childcare Recommendation

Head Start

"It all depends on your financial situation, but since Cornelius and I are not married yet, I qualify for the Headstart program. Phoenix and Derrion were both in the program— that's actually how we met Derrion. It's such a great program. They have dentists and doctors who will go there. If a child needs speech therapy, they will get the child involved in that."

Restaurant Recommendations

Cashwise Foods

"I didn't realize until recently that the Cashwise on 52nd Avenue in Fargo has a restaurant and salad bar inside—and it's really cheap. They have cheeseburgers, BLTs, soups, pizzas, and I'm sure some other things I'm forgetting. This is a great spot if you are looking to eat for a great price."

Mahana Fresh

"My fiance's brother owns the Fargo location, but my kids actually really love the food, which is surprising. And, it's super healthy!"
