Empowering Women. Transforming Childcare.
We are a women-led movement uplifting thousands of female childcare providers across Kenya. Together, we're building a future where childcare is valued, professional, and safe.
Welcome to the Women in Childcare Network
Founded in Kenya in 2023 and incubated by Uthabiti Africa, we are a fast-growing community of over 7,000 members—and we're just getting started. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to support, train, and empower women working in childcare, especially in home-based daycare settings. Whether you're a home-based childcare provider, a young mother, or part of a network supporting caregivers, you belong here.
Our Impact in Numbers
Since our inception, we've empowered over 7,000 childcare providers across Kenya, creating a ripple effect of positive change in communities.
