Our core values
Serve with purpose
Build trust
Overcome obstacles
Never stop learning
Care deeply & visibly
We make decisions according to our mission & core values, and by balancing the triangle — teachers & staff, parents, and the business, with children at the center.
As a startup, we have been challenged by the trade-offs presented by COVID, and the structural market failures in the childcare space with a new model. We are early in our marathon to change the childcare system, and have made our fair share of mistakes and learnings.
We are proud to have furloughed no teachers during COVID, to have 0 family & child cases of COVID, and to have grown locations 7.5x while tragically 34% of Bay Area daycares permanently shut down. However, we are certainly not perfect, and our hardest work lies ahead to scale our quality model and transform the childcare system.
Every obstacle makes us more determined and resilient — we will continue to work hard every day to keep improving and moving towards our mission and living out our core values.
