The grand finale was a private premiere of the game-changing reality series that follows bold businesswomen navigating babies, budgets, and big boss moves in pursuit of generational wealth.
About Childcare Cartel
The Childcare Cartel isn’t your typical feel-good family series. It’s a bold, behind-the-scenes reality show created by Atlanta-based mogul mom Sherri J. White, spotlighting the high-stakes world of Black women running early childhood education empires.
The docuseries peels back the layers of licensing, lawsuits, burnout, betrayal, sisterhood—and the beauty and chaos in between. Think: less playgrounds, more power moves.
The featured cast includes Martika Reddick, Janiya Burke, Keisha ‘Starr’ Archer, and Sydney Goggins, four childcare owners whose personal and professional journeys anchor the heart of the series.
“I had to close my center today,” said Sherri J. with a laugh to BOSSIP. “I came here in my work clothes and got dressed at the venue. But I feel really, really good. People are excited—they’re ready to network and get into what The Childcare Cartel is all about.”
Here’s what each of the featured women had to say about their journeys, and what they hope viewers take away.
Sherri J. : “We’re Here First as Women”
As the creator, executive producer, and owner of multiple centers, Sherri J. is the heartbeat of the show. She wants viewers to look beyond the surface of daycare.
“I want people to understand that childcare is more,” she said. “It’s about the women behind it. You’ll see each woman going through something different—some business, some tea—but mostly, it’s a reminder that this is a space where you can be a woman first. Yes, we’re providers, but we’re individuals too.”
Though some attendees hoped to network for jobs, Sherri J. made it clear—she’s fully staffed.
“Honestly? My payroll has hit its max,” she joked. “I need someone else to open a center so I can send some of my staff over there.”
