“As parent founders, we know first hand how important it is to have your childcare needs covered. Bubble is a fantastic solution for the Happity team, enabling parents to successfully work from home whenever extra help is needed. It means one less worry to think about.”
“We recently found the Bubble for Startups iniative and are so pleased to be able to enhance our employee offering, and to specifically support our parents better. It has made a huge difference. Being able to provide this flexible childcare option has not only relieved anxieties for parents at Secret Spa, but has also opened up the dialogue on the topic of parenting in the working world”
