Momni “Hour for Hour” Childcare Solution to Be Featured by Responsibility Foundation
Momni helps mothers to take responsibility for solving their own challenges related to childcare and personal income with caresharing. The Responsibility Foundation promotes responsibility in all of its many, varied forms. We are excited to share with you a feature article being published in the monthly magazine produced by the Responsibility Foundation that highlights the vision of responsible childcare promoted and facilitated by the Momni movement.
From the Responsibility Foundation website: The Responsibility Foundation has made responsibility its sole purpose. It exists to Educate, Engage, and Elevate the ideal of Responsibility as conveyed by world renowned author/psychiatrist, and Holocaust survivor, Dr. Viktor E. Frankl.
We have a responsibility, a stewardship, to ourselves, our neighbors, our communities, our country, and to the world.

Enjoy the article below that will soon be featured by the Responsibility Foundation in their monthly magazine. Mothers Circle Up to Improve Global Childcare Crisis Majestic, mighty, matriarchal elephants circle up when there is danger.
If you are fortunate enough to ever observe them in the wild, you’ll quickly notice their nurturing nature that calls them to care for one another and for their young. When you see a group or herd of elephants, you are most likely seeing the adult mamas, aunties, matriarch grandmas, teens and child elephants. These females have discovered the power of supporting each other. When there is danger lurking or any need to be on guard, such as encroaching hyenas or lions, a wounded calf, a birthing mother or a dying elephant, the others will circle and protect.
The mothers of Momni have embraced this symbol of support to represent their vision of helping to elevate the standard for raising children. Currently there is a global childcare crisis recognized in almost every nation of the world. Shockingly, over 35 million children 5 and under are left at home alone every day, without adult supervision. In addition to this current plight, the UN predicts that over the next decade, 1 billion women will enter the workforce, causing the current crisis to become a global epidemic of lack of care.
Omni is Latin for “all and everywhere.” Momni seeks to link together all moms everywhere with a vision of empowering moms to help one another to find solutions for care through the power of the new technology and sharing economy of “caresharing.” Either as a Momni guest or as a Momni host, moms are able to link together for paid playdates in the convenience of their own homes and with the flexibility necessary for busy moms.
Momni helps moms help themselves by providing instant access to other mothers available to provide care. With the aid of filters, ratings, reviews, references and optional background checks, moms are able to quickly and simply find immediate care solutions with qualified and exceptional mothers. Simultaneously, Momni helps mothers to obtain family friendly, flexible and instant income from home. Moms are able to set their own price, set their own hours and adjust either at any time as needed.
Momni helps moms help each other with its global social business model. For each hour of care provided in a first world country, the Momni Foundation will seed fund an hour of care for a Momni mother in a developing world country where the childcare crisis is most severe. This “hour-for-hour” care solution is distributed through caresharing credits, similar to other credit rewards systems familiar in most sharing economies.
Moms helping themselves and moms circling up to help each other… that’s Momni! The Responsibility Foundation supports the responsibility nature of this new startup and the mission of making the world a better place. This feature article, to be shared in the next issue of the Responsibility Roundup Magazine of the Responsibility Foundation, was written by Momni founder and CEO, Karmel Larson.
