How it works
Our village is saying
Otter caregivers make more than $21/hour on average
“It feels good to be rewarded for my work taking care of kids. I was doing this before but I wasn't getting paid and this feels really different.”
“I got laid off a few months ago and being able to do this helped me pay my bills.”

The origin story
Helen Mayer founded Otter to help every family find their village.
Helen was raised by a stay-at-home mom and started Otter in 2020 while she was a stay-at-home parent to her toddler twins.
