Lessons From a Mom Running a Business Full of Toddlers | Kristina Babina
What’s the difference between creating a job for yourself… and building a business that can thrive without you?
In this candid conversation, Kristina Babina — founder of TotUP, a growing chain of private daycares in Switzerland — breaks down what it really means to think like an entrepreneur. She shares why scaling matters, how systems give you freedom, and why fighting for change at the government level is part of her mission to make childcare more accessible.
Kristina’s no-nonsense approach is a reminder that growth isn’t just about hustle — it’s about clarity, bigger vision, and building something that lasts.
