Quality childcare is one of the most sought-out service in many families, as it’s now very uncommon to find stay-at-home moms, and a bulk of the population are turning into ‘busy professionals’.
As parents, Chika and Funmi Uzor, were not left out in the challenge that many Nigerian families face when it comes to hiring the services of childcare providers. So, in March 2016, they launched Childminder.ng to bridge the gap between parents looking for childcare and individuals who can provide these services, at affordable prices.
According to Chika, “Childminder.ng aims to support the transformational journey required to bring Childcare in Nigeria into the 21st Century by delivering a platform that provides the easiest, smartest, and most trusted way of hiring a childcare professional, anytime, anywhere.”
The platform enables parents/guardians to promote available vacancies, search for, and engage directly with the qualified pool of experienced childcare providers such as, Au pairs, Nannies, Private Tutors, Nurseries, Personal Assistants and Midwives amongst others.
In addition to its service, Childminder publishes rich content and advice on family, parenting, child legislation, child safety, home security, children charities and reviews on children’s products.
