My family just moved back to California from New York in March after being away for seven years right as the pandemic was beginning. Upon moving back to California, my mother began to cover childcare the lockdowns began. She had just retired from her teaching job the year before. This was not the original plan, but having the Helpr benefit was extremely helpful during this transition back to California in the midst of a global pandemic.
Using this benefit saved my family because both my partner and myself work full time so juggling childcare while working from home was tough. It also gave my mother a supplement to her income, which she says was very helpful as a retiree.
Helpr helps more than just the family looking for childcare. It also helps the caregiver.
When companies provide benefits like this it shows that the company cares about your well-being and the entire family unit.
