The Easiest Way to Get Child Care and Transportation Help

Child completes homework with after-school caregiver

Table of Contents

Managing child care and transportation as a parent can feel like solving a new puzzle every single day. From school pickups to after-school coverage, the logistics never seem to stop — and neither do you.

That’s where Our Village steps in. We make it easy to post one job and get help with both child care and transportation — no bouncing between apps, no long-term commitments, and no overwhelm.


One Post Covers It All

Need someone to pick up your child and stay until dinner? Done. With Our Village, you can combine tasks and keep it simple.

“Pick up my son from school at 3:15 and stay until 5:30. Snack and homework help included.”

That’s transportation and care in one go.
Learn more about what you can ask for on Our Village.


Why It’s Better Than Rideshare or Sitter Apps

This isn’t Uber. It’s not a $500/month sitter service either.
It’s real people from your community — caregivers, parents, and helpers — who you can chat with, choose, and rebookbased on your needs.

✅ Flexible jobs
✅ Vetted, trusted providers
✅ Local support you actually know
