What is NeigborSchools?
NeighborSchools helps educators & caregivers open and run home daycares.
We believe that every child deserves really good care. That starts with you, the providers, who work hands-on with each child. Centers today are too big for children, too expensive for parents, and too inefficient to pay providers fairly.
Home daycare is the solution. Working together, we’re making sure that providers earn what they deserve, that parents can find good child care they can actually afford, and that our children get the love & support they need to flourish.
At NeighborSchools, we’re on a mission to solve the child care crisis, one successful home daycare at a time.
