Most teenagers make their first earnings by babysitting on Friday nights much like Noa Mintz did. Mintz innovated the babysitting world, at twelve years old she founded the matchmaking childcare service Nannies by Noa. This service provides extensive information on families and nannies ensuring that they are a good match. Nannies by Noa is still blossoming into the successful company it has the potential of becoming.
Mintz was raised on the West side of Manhattan this caused her to notice the disadvantages to finding babysitting gigs in such populated cities. Mintz strives to make babysitting a better and more efficient service for both the families and the nannies by being so creative and innovative. Mintz demonstrates entrepreneurial traits such as: driven, innovative, and creative. Nannies by Noa inspires me to not only focus on physical products but also on services that can be innovated or created. Thsi business also forces me to believe that there are lots more “everyday” goods and services that can be innovated and made better.
