Can you imagine a world where working and parenting harmoniously coexist? A community that supports parents' needs and provides stress-free childcare? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Britt Riley, the visionary founder of Haven Clubs, who brings this ideal to life. Britt shares her journey to creating an ecosystem that unites childcare, workspace, and fitness, emphasizing the need for more flexible childcare options and caring for the whole family. She gives us insight into how the power of community can fundamentally change the parenting experience, especially in the first five years. Navigating the crossroads of work and parenting is no easy feat, and Britt's innovative solution is truly a breath of fresh air. In our chat, we dive into the topic of the childcare cliff and the urgent need to expand access to these essential services. We ponder on the financial burden of childcare and how both public and private sectors have a role to play in alleviating this stress. Britt also underscores the critical role of early childhood educators and the importance of better pay to acknowledge their immense contribution. Tune in for an enlightening conversation that challenges the childcare industry standards and reimagines parenting in the 21st century. Britt is a visionary entrepreneur and a leader in childcare innovation and work-life integration. With over 6.5 years of experience as the CEO and founder of The Haven Collection, the team has created a network of clubs that offer fully licensed daycare, coworking, and fitness to all member families.
