There are a reported 53 million caregivers in the US looking after loved ones. A nationwide survey on the state of America’s caregivers commissioned by Pivotal Ventures found themes that indicated caregivers need more time, more resources, and access to affordable support solutions. Among the key findings, the study found:
40% of unpaid caregivers report feeling isolated and unsupported.
66% of caregivers report sacrificing their own ambitions and well-being to care for a loved one
The responsibility of caregivers on average equates to 45 hours a week on unpaid caregiving duties.
At its core, Stroll is a purpose-driven digital staffing agency focused on childcare based out of South Bend, IN.
Childcare providers often have access to robust networks but are limited in how they can connect and leverage these relationships. Stroll aims to match caregivers with families who not only want childcare but also want to share their lived experiences with caregivers to nurture their long-term goals.
Through Stroll, childcare providers have the chance to optimize their professional search to land their dream careers while building lasting relationships with the families they serve.
Our platform benefits both parties and we in turn create deeper relationships with everyone in our community.
