educator, author, and daycare owner, Inspired Courses is dedicated to helping women build purposeful childcare businesses with faith and confidence.
You already have the heart. Maybe even the training. But building a childcare business requires more than love—it takes strategy, support, and the courage to step out in faith.
Tonya Dean knows exactly what that feels like. She’s a certified early childhood educator, professional development specialist, and founder of Inspired Achievers Academy. As a proud mother of four and member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Tonya is no stranger to hard work, leadership, and service.
Her journey began in the classroom—but the true test came when she stepped into entrepreneurship.
That’s where faith, business, and purpose came together—and now, she wants to help you do the same.
“I knew I had the educational background and the knowledge in early childhood development, but to do this you also have to know the back end of running a business. For me, that was harder to learn.”
Instead of giving up, Tonya leaned into her faith, invested in learning the business side, and built a successful child-care center that now serves as a model for women everywhere. Inspired Courses was born out of that experience—offering real-life strategies, heartfelt mentorship, and faith-based encouragement to help others walk boldly in their purpose.
I'm deeply committed to assisting other women on the same path, equipping them with the skills they need to become leaders in childcare. That's why I founded Inspired Courses to share what I've learned and empower women to turn their passion for children and education into a purposeful business.
For Tonya, this work is more than a business—it’s a calling.
"You were called to this. Now you're equipped to lead."
