Developed by an innovative Douglas woman, Dr Wendy Oke, TeachKloud uses artificial intelligence to auto-suggest early childhood curriculum framework goals, allowing the teachers more time to focus on childcare needs. Describing it as “the Netflix for children's learning”, Dr Wendy ensured it features educational videos from expert teachers around the world on topics such as yoga, dance, drama, literacy, science experiments and puppetry. Dr Oke was a finalist of Ireland’s Best Young Entrepreneur in 2019 and was an ambassador for National Women’s Enterprise Day, both initiatives of the Local Enterprise Offices.
