A group of moms got together to form Scottsdale Community Learning Center. Some of us are working parents, some of us just don’t want to be online teachers ever again! We created a safe space for kids to come and complete their online learning with the support of certified teachers and tutors. We provide help with homework, along with various other activities as time permits. We are very flexible with our scheduling and allow parents to choose how many hours they would like to send their kids each day and each week. We charge about $10/hr., but have some packages for schools that we have received schedules for so far, that give a bonus of 30 minutes of homework help each day.
Attend an upcoming open house to learn more about Building Blocks Preschool! We will cover everything from our daily schedule to before and after school programs and everything in-between. Questions will be answered by our Site Administrator and Early Education Teacher Christine Foppe-Villafuerte.
Nanno (www.nanno.com) is the first true on-demand babysitting app, giving parents a way to book fully vetted sitters and nannies using a simple on-demand platform.

Seeing no satisfactory options for flexible, on-demand childcare, they built one. As professional problem-solvers, they built the solution they knew they needed. As moms, they took extra care to ensure that the platform’s vetting process is best-in-class, for both caregivers and parents.
