Navigating Childcare Challenges with Priya Krishnan

With federal funds expiring, the child care crisis is top of mind for us, so we are lucky to have an expert guide us through this moment.

Priya Krishnan, Chief Digital Transformation Officer at Bright Horizons, joins us for an eye-opening conversation on the challenges of balancing child care and the crucial role employers play in supporting working parents.

Prior to this role, she founded KLAY, a school for marginalized children, which has grown to become India’s largest child care and schooling service provider.

As she says, “To help combat this crisis, we believe employers need to become – and continue to be – a source of financial support for working parents’ child care requirements. The most tragic outcome will be the reversal of the women workforce participation we have seen increase over the years.”

Join us for an important conversation on how we can lean on each other, and advocate for better solutions.
