Job description
About Lillio (formerly HiMama) and Our Mission:
At Lillio (formerly HiMama), we are a mission driven business with the goal of empowering early childhood educators through innovative, affordable tools that enable them to improve child outcomes, engage family members, and support continued professional growth for their staff. We are committed to serving the field as an authentic voice of the early childhood education (ECE) workforce, providing programs with all of the building blocks for high-quality early care and education and helping early educators focus on what matters most for children’s successful development and learning: relationships, play, creativity, and loving, nurturing caregiving. If you are excited about being part of an impact-driven business, focused on making a difference in the early childhood education industry, Lillio is the place for you.
Lillio is a Series B, private-equity backed company and we're proud to be part of the Bain Double Impact portfolio. Lillio is recognized as an industry leader, most recently selected in 2025 by Time Magazine as one of the world's top EdTech companies.
