🚌 Shuttle of Play: Driving Workforce Solutions

Delivering Equity. Empowering Communities.

Shuttle of Play is a transportation-based workforce initiative powered by Marvelous Minds. It’s not just a van—it’s a mobile solution to workforce instability and child care deserts.

We provide daily, reliable transit for child care professionals to reach work and connect parents to care they can trust. Our goal is to remove the #1 barrier to employment and child care access in Rochester: transportation.


📍 Currently operating in Monroe County, with plans to expand
📊 Proven model backed by data, advocacy, and multi-sector collaboration

What We Do

Daily Shuttle Routes for child care workers to and from Job sites

Outreach Events like Parent Night Out, where we connect families to resources

Why It Matters

🔗 Child care deserts + unreliable transportation = lost jobs & closed classrooms
🚺 Women can’t return to work without reliable care
🧑‍🏫 Child care centers can’t open classrooms without staff

Shuttle of Play is solving this by: ✔ Reducing child care provider turnover ✔ Reconnecting families to stable child care ✔ Fueling workforce stability and economic mobility
