The drive: What challenges have you overcome?
Doing something that hasn’t been done before is hard – there’s no formula to follow, no guides to help. We’ve had to take a big idea, break it down into achievable chunks and then build technology solutions to give parents the type of experience we always wanted.
Introducing a new platform into the daycare sector is also a challenge. It can take time before daycares adapt to the new approach – but we’ve found they are really receptive once the parent enquiries start coming in.
Our biggest challenge now is spreading the word about Kindello so more parents can find the perfect daycare for their families.
For better or worse: What are the pros and cons of running your own business?
Running your own business isn’t for everyone. There are pros and cons, but if you’re passionate about solving a problem for your users, it can be incredibly rewarding. The most rewarding parts for me are creating something from nothing, seeing parents have a much better experience through our product and building a team of people who are all working towards our vision.
The thing that can be challenging is that we are never really off. We’re always thinking about the business, and there’s always something to do next. You get used to it, but I can definitely see that this wouldn’t be appealing to everyone.
Hopes and dreams: What next?
We’re on a mission to empower the parents of the youngest learners. We’re going to keep making Kindello better for parents with more content, more features, new ways to filter daycares and an even better experience.
Right now, we’re focused on getting Kindello into the hands of as many parents as possible.
