Description

Ari Last is the CEO and Founder of Bubble.After becoming a parent, Ari was shocked by the lack of innovation in the childcare space and set out to change this. In this episode, Ari explains the challenges in building a marketplace for users that are trusting you with the most valuable thing in their lives, their children. Bubble achieves this in two ways: 1.      Using social proof as the key to building trust with parents. Who are you going to trust more than someone vouched for by a friend or family member?2.      Secondly by giving the power back to the parents. Historically childcare agencies would just send a nanny to a family, with Bubble the parents decide which nanny they use.  Tune in to hear how Ari has grown the UK’s largest on-demand in-home childcare platform, with over 200,000 families and 100,000 carers on the app.  Highlights:04.52: The current state of childcare, in-home versus out-of-home childcare options07.15: Why is the childcare system so broken? 10.30: The evolving role of the employer and childcare support 13.00: What is Bubble and how do they get parents comfortable using their platform to book childcare? 15.17: Why the phrase “Uber for babysitters” does Bubble a disservice 18.02: Bubble’s vetting process and why only 25% make it through21.14: How do you even go abut building a childcare marketplace? 28.52: Bubble for work and pushing into the B2B space supporting working parents 31.13: The future of Bubble: international expansion, B2B and in-home help. 43.41: What does Ari look for when hiring people? Our Host:Craig Turner.
