Brief: Give busy urban parents the kind of reliable childcare support they need when their family lives miles away.
Solve: They say it takes a village... So we decided to make one available, by putting one on an app.
Introducing NEED/DONE - a SaaS-based app created and designed for a rising generation of dual income head of households. The steady growth in this millennial target presented an awesome opportunity. Especially in a $48+ billion childcare market. So we designed, built
and piloted a community–building mobile app that enables parents to collect a local “family,” made up of parent friends that shares trustworthy resoures (like sitters, dog walkers, cleaners) with each other.

NPR ran a four-part podcast about the making of NEED/DONE (Note To Self / Taking the Lead). Fascinated by the notion that someone's decided to apply themselves to solving a social problem
(helping more working mothers get to the C-suite) with a tech-led solution, they've been following our story since then.
