May 12th is National Childcare Provider Appreciation day. To show our appreciation for the workers who take care of our kids, Leadership Next is bringing you an episode of Where's My Village? Fortune's podcast about America's childcare crisis and the people who are trying to fix it. You can listen and subscribe to the entire series here.

Private investment in childcare companies doubled between 2020 and 2021, and the range of apps, software, products and services investors can put their money into is growing. Many think private dollars have the potential to transform the childcare industry, others think involving private investors is a risky endeavor. Shruthi Jayaram of Dalberg Advisors and Jess Lee of Sequoia Capital talk through why investors have been skeptical of investing in care in the past and what's changed in the past few years. Chris Bennett, the CEO of Wonderschool. discusses his decision to focus on in home providers, how many providers on the Wonderschool platform earn almost triple the national average and his vision for the company's future. Wonderschool is a childcare management platform that works with home-based providers to streamline and grow their businesses. We also hear from home-based providers about the realities of their professions and experts in the field on their concerns about private investment in childcare.
Oxford defines decentralization as “the transfer of control of an activity or organization to several local offices or authorities rather than one single one.” Essentially, decentralization dethrones the few to empower the many, in arenas ranging from technology to politics to social reform. With diverse individuals and entities collaborating to determine the best approach and interventions to address the range of needs, problems, and structural inevitables, the systems created reflect the distinct physical, social, cultural, and political spheres in which they exist. In this episode, Tate Chamberlin hosts U.S. Navy veteran and regenerative agriculture advocate Latham Turner, HATCH board member and co-founder of the Care Collective, MyVillage, and Off-Grid Electric Erica Mackey, and technologist and marketer for Unlock Protocol Christopher Carfi in a discussion regarding decentralization and its local and global impact on systems change.

In today's Where's My Village? we are exploring another pillar that's been supporting families and their kids for a long time - the community. In the final episode of the series, Fortune's Ellen McGirt returns to explore how we can create community in a country that would rather we not. This episode features the story of Fela Barclift and Little Sun People, a childcare center Barclift founded in 1980 to serve and strengthen the Brooklyn community it's proud to call home. Before we get to Little Sun People, we hear from Julia Gutierrez, a mom and infant mental health advocate from rural Michigan. Gutierrez describes how her family came together to help raise her two children, creating an invaluable support system that helped her through some tough times. And we hear from Mia Birdsong, the author of How We Show Up: Reclaiming Family, Friendship and Community, about what is currently separating us from the human need for community and how she reconnects to it in her own life. Thank you for coming on this journey with us over these five episodes of Where's My Village? We're proud to have brought to you the stories of people who are working to make childcare accessible for all of us. And we know we have only scratched the surface of what's out there...until next time, take good care of yourselves and each other!

Families have known for years that reliable childcare is directly tied to parents' ability to work. But the pandemic made this painfully clear to employers, spurring many to rethink the benefits they offer employees. In this episode of Where's My Village?, Fortune senior writer Maria Aspan explores how two companies and one New York City union have decided to support their workers with kids. First up, Bank of America. The company, which employs over 200,000 people, extended a range of childcare offerings during the pandemic and ultimately decided to make several of them permanent. Next, Corning, Inc. For years the Fortune 500 company has helped fund daycares and afterschool centers that are available to the entire community. And finally, the New York City 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers union. For 30 years companies that employee union members have contributed money to a fund that subsidies childcare for union families. Why have these very different employers decided to invest so heavily in childcare? And how has this choice impacted their workers? Find out in this week's Where's My Village?

This week Alan Murray is at Fortune's Most Powerful Women Summit, gathering material for an upcoming episode of Leadership Next. In the meantime, check out Where's My Village? Fortune's NEW podcast co-hosted by Leadership Next's Ellen McGirt. Where's My Village is a limited series about the childcare crisis in America and the stories of people who are trying to fix it. Like what you hear? Subscribe! Thanks to the COVID pandemic it's become very clear that the issue of America's crumbling childcare infrastructure extends far beyond individual families. The lack of formal support for working parents is a problem that all company leaders – and frankly anyone interested in building a better economy – needs to understand. Over five episodes Fortune reporters will introduce you to politicians, community leaders, entrepreneurs and corporate executives who fully believe that doing right by kids and families ultimately drives economic growth. In this episode, also available here along with the series' prologue, Fortune's Beth Kowitt investigates what happens when state and local governments take it upon themselves to try and fix this broken system. Kowitt tells the story of how one New England state and a city in Kansas are finding both the political will and financial resources to provide reliable, affordable childcare to their residents.
Reinvent is proud to present Where's My Village?, Fortune's podcast about America's childcare crisis and the stories of people who are trying to fix it. The childcare industry in the U.S. has been in a precarious position for years. Childcare workers are chronically underpaid, yet quality care is hard to find - and for many families it's almost prohibitively expensive. This has long been a problem that individuals struggled to solve alone. But when COVID forced much of the industry to shut down, the problem burst into the open. It quickly became clear to many that childcare is essential to the country's economic health. Limited childcare options limit the ability of parents - often of mothers - to participate fully in the workforce. Luckily there are entrepreneurs, corporate executives, community leaders and politicians who see this moment as an opportunity to make things better. In each episode of Where's My Village, Fortune reporters will introduce you to these people who are striving to improve the system. But in the first episode of this limited series, host Ellen McGirt seeks to uncover how the country got into its current childcare mess. McGirt talks to organizers, advocates, historians, and policy experts about the historical roots and current state of America's childcare infrastructure and why they have hope for its future.

When it comes to providing support for America's childcare infrastructure, the federal government has proven infamously unreliable. But - on the bright side - in the absence of federal action, states and cities have become hot beds for childcare innovation. In this episode of Where's My Village? host Beth Kowitt investigates how one New England state and a city in Kansas are finding both the political will and the financial resources to provide reliable, affordable childcare to their residents. Also in this episode, Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) who has led the charge for childcare funding in the federal government for well over 20 years. Learn more about your ad choices.

Erica Mackey is a mom on a mission. In this “Lesson on Self-Assurance”, the CEO, and Co-Founder talks founding MyVillage—a company training an army of women entrepreneurs to run their own businesses--raising six million from impact investors and her solutions for the broken, messy problem of childcare in America. If you’re a mom who was told to get on the childcare waitlist while you were still pregnant, this episode is for you. Why the average American mom can’t '“stay-at-home”. What is My Village? Why/how was it founded? What do being humble and “being the rock” have to do with it? How role models like Finland’s Sanna Marin, New Zealand’s Jacinda Arden, and Senator Tammy Duckworth are changing the conversation. Obstacles that women face as working mothers around an unconscious bias. Creating a really powerful on-the-ground community that supports each other. "Why are women expected to work like they don’t have children and mother like they don’t work?" Why aren't childcare providers able to be written off in the same way that other employees are? How Erica’s confidence and passion attracted investors to her business. Women raise on 2.8% of venture capital. How did Mackey raise 250 million and 6 million for her ventures? What is an Impact Investor? Do women lead differently? #LESSONUP: (8:03) We're using a lot of principles that are out there around child centered, child led, play-based programming. But we are doing it in a way that we really help people thrive in their first six to 12 months of running a home based business. (12:54) We're seeing so many more women right in this moment, I think of Jacinda Arden who brings her baby to the UN general assembly for the first time ever. Who's out there breastfeeding. Finland's female prime minister who's the youngest female prime minister in the world and she posts selfies breastfeeding. And then Tammy Duckworth, she got caught on her zoom call saying “ you're going potty mommy will be there in a second.” She told it to the whole democratic caucus, which I thought was hilarious and I personally, I love this. (14:49) That boundary between personal and professional as you start framing it, you can't be the best and exclude the other side. (15:52) We're still having this conversation in the United States, strangely about women who work and should women be allowed to work where you should be at home with your children. And there's still this kind of unconscious bias and this push-pull a lot of the times still between moms who work and moms who don't about what is best for children. (17:34) I think in the world that we're in now where unemployment is going to be a major issue and flexibility around employment and trying to make all of the puzzle pieces work in a way that don't. It's going to have to be at the forefront and the political conversation. (19:00) I built that business over seven years. I was COO and built a thousand person team. We raised about 250 million over the course while I was there to scale the business and at the point that I moved back to the States, we were selling about 10,000 houses a month. (19:53) Focus on solving important problems. And I think that's where a lot of my confidence as an entrepreneur comes from and how you present the opportunity, how you work your way through your network to get to the right conversations at the right time. (20:42) Having a strong conviction to the problem and a true deep passion for wanting solve it I think is always been a successful first step for me. (21:27) I was very specific about picking impact investors for our initial round. Impact investors are really mission-aligned, so they're looking for a double, triple bottom line business. Some of them are environment, profit, people-focused. Some of them are just people profit-focused, so they want a return. But they really understand that the best impact that can be made in a society is usually in a really complex system. (23:20) It's more of a place of leading from self-assurance. If I have doubt about the direction, it's anchored in a place where I'm sure we will get to a solution on the other side. (26:24) Feminine leadership will often will make you much more successful in the connection and coming from a good place, coming from a place of support, which then I think as long as you're delivering the directness, on the other axis at the same time where you're really able to not get hung up by worrying so much about people, how it's going to land, and where it's coming from. A true, honest place. I think that women, in general, are much better at getting that balance. (28:59) This is about creating an army of small female entrepreneurs that are going to change the world but just really tackle the childcare crisis on their own.

This week we learn all about a market that very likely befuddles many of you – childcare. We speak with Erica Mackey (co-founder & CEO) and Elke Govertsen (Chief Community Officer) of MyVillage, a Bozeman based start-up determined to fix a broken system for both parents and providers.
According to the Center for American Progress, 51% of Americans live in a daycare desert; a place with almost no openings for infants or toddlers in nearby licensed preschools. Those lucky enough to find openings often spend more on childcare than they can afford, and many educators can’t earn enough as preschool teachers to make ends meet.

She Thinks Big - Women Entrepreneurs Doing Good in the World
Finding Solutions to the Problem of Childcare I love it when people see a problem and they go, “Huh, I wonder if I could fix that?” Today’s guest, Erica Mackey, did just that. She returned to work with her six-week old only to find that basic childcare is basically broken. But rather than shrug her shoulders in resignation, she asked herself if she could use business to address the problems in childcare. Now, two years in, with 17 employees and 40 educators, MyVillage is a community of high-quality, in-home childcare and preschool programs in Colorado and Montana, with plans to expand nationwide. Erica’s Vision for MyVillage Erica’s vision for MyVillage is to see a network of incredibly talented and skilled caregivers and educators that are community leaders. And to inspire children to do the same, and create and instill that sense of confidence and the skill set to be able to act on that confidence. Which means a sea of entrepreneurs, of budding educators, and of capable children who are ready to be the citizens of this country that we deserve. What Erica Asks from the She Thinks Big Community Erica asks that you reach out and encourage anybody you know in your network who just needs a little confidence boost to be able to take the next step forward. If you have somebody who has touched you or your family in a way that you know that they would be incredible at providing this service to their community, reach out and encourage them to check it out because sometimes it just takes a little nudge to get over that initial fear. I’m just blown away by what Erica and her team are creating, in the same way that I was blown away when I first used Lyft and Square. MyVillage is taking a system that was so archaic and bringing it into the 21st century and solving dozens of problems elegantly in one fell swoop. Thank you, Erica, for your big vision. Ladies, I would love to hear from you. What is your biggest takeaway from this episode? Come and share on the She Thinks Big Facebook group page.

My Village (eggertspiele / Pegasus): Spiele-Podcast Nr. 292 - Eigenständige und anspruchsvolle Variante von Village. Die Rezension und Beispielrunde auch als Video: YouTube.
Den lehrreichen Anfang macht diesmal Herr Wagner, der das Spiel Viticulture Essential Edition und vieles rund um den Weinbau unter die Lupe nimmt. Herr Noe hat dabei nichts zu lachen, denn er kämpft um eine Weinköniginnen-Urkunde, die er allerdings nur bei ausreichendem Wissen zum Thema verliehen bekommt. Hättet Ihr eine Urkunde bekommen? Herzlichen Dank an den Feuerlandverlag, der uns ein Exemplar zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Herr Noe kümmert sich indes um MyVillage und begibt sich auf Zeitreise (nein, es ist KEIN T.I.M.E Stories Szenario) in das mittelalterliche Dorf. Sein Vortrag bietet Euch diesmal sogar Einblicke in drei Themen - das Dorf / die Pest / Erinnerungskultur. Es freut uns sehr, Dennis Lohausen im Gespräch gehabt zu haben - zu MyVillage aber auch vielen anderen Aspekten seiner Arbeit. Gerne verweisen wir auch auf den InsertMoin Podcast (http://insertmoin.de/im1506-my-village/), der sich auch schon intensiv mit dem Spiel auseinandergesetzt hat. Herzlichen Dank an Pegasus Spiele, die uns ein Exemplar zur Verfügung gestellt haben. Viel Spass mit Episode 005 wünschen -die brettagogen-

Workshop #22 Young Composers & Improvisors Workshop Recordings
My music teacher gave me the idea for the tittle” The Music from My Village”. I began my piece with simple notes and I started with a violin. As I started coming up with different notes I got an idea for other instruments too. It starts with using a violin witch gives it a smooth sound but then I added more instruments from the background so that each could connect. I have 26 measures and I used a violin, cello, flute, bassoon, clarinet and french horn. In some notes i used repetition and variation. I learned that by making different notes and coming up with different sounds its amazing how you can create your own music. You can mess around a little with the instruments and notes untill you like how it sounds. My piece is dedicated to Matt and Cristina Cobo for helping me out in creating my first composition.
Twesigye Jackson Kaguri was born and raised in Uganda in the small village of Nyakagyezi. At a very young age he demonstrated an unquenchable desire to learn, which led him to study at and graduate from Makerere University in Kampala. During this time he co-founded the human rights organization, Human Rights Concerns, to help victims of human rights violations in Uganda and to educate the public about their rights. In the 90s he became a visiting scholar at Columbia University where he studied Human Rights Advocacy. Over the years he has been involved extensively in international community efforts as a human rights advocate, fundraiser, and inspirational speaker. In 2001, Kaguri founded The Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project in response to the devastating effects of AIDS in his hometown. The organization, which recently celebrated its tenth anniversary, provides free education to children who have lost one or both parents to HIV/AIDS. In addition to two schools, it also operates a library, desire farm and nutrition program, medical clinic, clean water system, and a support program for the grandmothers who care for up to 14 children at a time. Since founding the project, Kaguri has also become an author. In "A School for My Village" he shares how he came to build the first school and the struggles he faced during the first few years. Last year, he resigned as Interim Senior Director of Development in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources at Michigan State University to focus full-time on The Nyaka AIDS Orphans Project. Kaguri has been named a Heifer International Hero, recognized in Time Magazine's 'Power of One' Series, and spoken to the UN about his work. In 2012, he was named a CNN Hero and recognized internationally for his innovative work in human rights. Kaguri travels the country to speak with students and supporters of the organization when not working.
