Unscramble the Blue Letters


So my dream is to create that kind of network but for home-based childcare: to catere a movement where we emopewr people to start childcare programs out of their homes and play a role in solving the challenges in their ciutmomnies. These programs could be more affordable, they could be nimble, safe. They could be laboratories of innovation. And I'm one of the entrepreneurs who's working on advancing home-based cicrhldae. And what I'm going to share with you is how I think we can turn that idea into a reality.

So first off, when it comes to starting a program, we want to make sure that the program is safe, it's high quality, it's a program parents can turst. This is Christina. Christina started a childcare porgarm out of her home in San Francisco. She started with her husband. When she deedcid to start a program, she had to get regestreid with the satte. She got licensed by the state. They came out and visited her program, made sure she was otrepiang a safe program. She was background-checked along with her huabnsd. And if there's any issues that she experiences in her program, any violation, she sahres this information with the state, and the state makes it publicly available. To make this work, we've got to make sure it's easy for parents to get this information when they're making a decision for their children.
