BOULDER â Families across Montana have been talking about the need for stable childcare options, especially since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, people in the community of Boulder are stepping up to address that need themselves.
Boulder hasnât had a licensed childcare facility for three years. Thatâs had a real impact on people like Devyn Ottman, a teacher at Boulder Elementary School. She and her husband have three children, and they had to have eight different people look after their daughter just during a regular school year.

Rural startups can face challenges in attaining resources, personnel and funding, said panelist Delaney Keating, executive director of Startup Colorado, a peer-to-peer network that connects rural entrepreneurs, funders and small-business owners and helps them access educational and financial assistance.
“In a city, you have different types and density of resources,” Keating said. “One of our goals is to provide that rurally.”
