Empowering Childcare as Skilled and Transformative Work

Indaba Care is a new initiative by the Indaba Institute that transforms domestic childcare into a professional, respected, and upwardly mobile career for women in South Africa. Through world-class training, career pathways, and digital tools, we equip domestic childcare practitioners with the skills and recognition they deserve, while delivering high-quality, Montessori-informed care to children during their most critical years of development.

Meet the passionate professionals driving Indaba Care’s impactful childcare solutions.

The word “Indaba” comes from Zulu and Xhosa traditions, representing an important gathering for sharing ideas and collectively finding solutions—which perfectly represents our collaborative approach to transformation.
