Our interviews with entrepreneurs offering children services are fantastic. Experienced business owners share key lessons learned from their startup experiences.
Childhood is filled with milestones; one of the most memorable is the first visit from the Tooth Fairy. Toothcity.com, started by Wendy Goldband, commemorates that important visit with CDs, stickers and other goodies.
Jill Starishevsky took her experience as a New York City prosecutor of child abuse and sex crimes cases to begin a service to help parents get feedback on their nanny's performance. She also wrote a book to help children understand the agency of their own body.
Calling on her experiences as a nanny, Candi Wingate started Nannies4Hire.com, a child-care referral service. She later expanded the idea to start Care4Hire.com for elder care, pet sitters and other caregivers.
