Launched in 2021, the platform currently serves over 27000 guardians seeking flexible childcare options.
From the founder
"We are on a mission to give parents and guardians a unique experience by allowing them to easily discover, book and manage child care and activities in a single place. The additional funding will enable us to connect with thousands more parents, activity providers and carers seamlessly through our technology. Activity and childcare providers will also continue to grow their revenue streams at a time when increased revenue is crucial to riding out the recession."
