We’ve had a little name glow-up - introducing The Village Co.
You told us not to lose the "village." So we didn’t.
We’ve evolved — because modern parenting deserves modern support.
-elevated, empowered, and emotionally intelligent.
Formerly It Takes a Village. Same mission. New magic. Welcome to the new standard in babysitting.

Why We Built The Village Co.
It started with two mums, a group chat, and little to no family nearby.
We built this for the parents like us, the ones doing it all and wondering how the hell they’re still standing.
Because you deserve more than three sips of cold coffee and a date night that gets cancelled… again.
We personally call every sitter. We welcome every parent. Because we believe parenting shouldn’t mean doing it alone..\

Parent-built. Parent-backed.
We’ve lived the chaos. We’re building the solution. And we are tired of pretending we can do it all alone.
