Speaking to parents at our recent community events has further highlighted the impact of childcare gaps on parents' careers! 😫 Childcare gaps significantly hinder parents' ability to perform their jobs, return to work post-maternity leave, and maintain employment overall. As Cathal, a local parent featured in our video below, points out, even relocating closer to family doesn't fully resolve the issue. Luckily, this sounds like a problem that can be solved with Good People + Great Tech. 🫡 Reach out today to learn how öogo can de-frazzle your working parents. #childcarebenefits #familyfriendlyemployers #ChildcareISthenewHealthInsurance

The öogo Team has just had a SUPER weekend in Westport ☘ meeting Parents & Minders™ (and lots of impossibly cute little ones)! 👶 Thanks to everyone who came along despite the not-so-super weather. ☔ We received over 50 registrations from Parents who we hope to match with great Minders™ in the coming days. 😎 Our biggest take away from the two days was how difficult it is for Minders™ to find the right fit work as well!  😲 This isn’t just a parent’s problem. Hard to believe but completely true. We met amazing Minders™ who are not working their ideal hours or in their ideal locations because they find it just as hard to meet families as families are finding it to meet Minders™. 🤯 We now look forward to doing it all again this weekend in Skerries :-) ⛵ Come along and bring us your childcare woes! 💛
