Our Mission Child care providers are the unsung heroes of our nation. Our goal is to support them so they can continue to do the important work of caring for the next generation. Founded by Childcare Professionals and Parents We are a team of former childcare professionals and parents and we have experienced how hard it can be to find child care. As we dug into it more, we found that there is a child care shortage in America and that if child care providers had a solution to help them with their staffing issues that we could help solve it. So that's what we set out to do through Upkid.
