        • Turn every home into a place where a child can learn, develop, and thrive.

          We are /dost/: a friend who has supported parents in unlocking their children’s potential since 2017.

        • 54,000

          families have received Dost's early childhood development programs.

          2 out of 3

          parents report adopting Dost-recommended behaviors at home.

          35%

          of parents are highly engaged in Dost’s program, as compared to other online courses with 7% average completion rate.

        • “I have learnt the importance of setting routines with my children. Now we have home routines for food, studies and TV. I used to pin the blame of excessive screen time on my children. But as a parent, I now know that it is my responsibility to ensure that screen time is regulated.”

          - Tara, parent from Delhi

        • We reach families who are ready to kickstart their children's education.

          75% female

          Dost parents are primarily mothers.

          23 of these Dost Champion mothers have now gained training and employment to grow Dost in their own communities.

          less than $4000

          annual income

          Dost parents are “aspirers” who come from low and pre-middle income households. They are the vegetable vendors, drivers, seamstresses, etc. in their communities.

          60% smartphones

          Parents are already on their phones. Dost has witnessed the incredible rise of mobile use amongst even the lowest-income households.

          less than a 5th grade education level

          40% of Dost parents have less than a 5th grade level of education and an additional 30% of Dost parents have less than a 10th grade level of education. However, these same parents have college-level aspirations for their children.

        • “Through Dost, I have learnt things about my child that I didn’t know before. I also love how I can access Dost calls at a time of my convenience. Whenever I get a chance, I tell other people about this program.”

          - Seema, parent from Delhi
