MyVillage raises $5.95M to make early childcare accessible and afforable

This is the largest seed funding round ever raised in the state of Montana

Early childcare is a huge market, totaling over $48 billion in the U.S. alone, and yet it doesn’t seem to be working for anyone involved. For working families, good quality and affordable childcare is often expensive and out of reach. While there are 15 million kids under the age of five in paid care programs, half of parents aren’t happy with their options. And the care providers themselves are underpaid and overwhelmed by the amount of work involves.

All of these pain points are being solved by MyVillage, a company that provides educators with tools and mentors designed to help them get their business off the ground, while also making it easier for parents to find a good program that works for them and their child.
