Chapter I · The problem

What makes finding childcare so hard right now.

Childcare is still fragmented, unpredictable, and difficult to access when parents actually need it.

Every parent we spoke to described the same three frustrations. So we started there.

01

01

Too much information. Too little clarity

Google, Instagram, WhatsApp, reviews and word of mouth leave you with scattered information and no clear way to know what’s actually right for your child.

02

02

You can’t see what you’re choosing

Is the centre safe? Is it genuine? What is the environment really like? Online information rarely tells you what you need to know before trusting someone with your child.

03

03

Everything happens separately

Enquiries, visits, forms, payments, updates and communication happen across different places, making an already important decision unnecessarily stressful.

04

04

Finding a trusted caregiver at home is even harder

When a parent needs someone to look after their child at home, they often rely on personal referrals, informal networks, or unstructured platforms with limited transparency around availability, experience, and trust.
