CocoRio’s guide to co-working and childcare
You may not have thought about it before, but co-working and childcare can actually go hand in hand. That’s right, we believe co-working and on-site childcare provides a practical solution for everyone involved, benefitting you, your co-workers and your children.
Cue CocoRio’s childcare solution for co-working parents - our nanny sharing service. Whether you co-work in an office space, at your home or in the local library, sharing your working environment means you can also share childcare.
Here’s why it’s a win-win solution…
1. Sharing a nanny has multiple benefits
If you co-work with a colleague or friend, we’re here to tell you that our nanny sharing service was made for you. Nanny sharing means you can share your nanny with 2-3 others, meaning you can split the cost, up the fun for your child and still ensure the same high-quality childcare you’re looking for. It’s also super-fun for your little ones, who can build beautiful friendships while boosting their confidence, self-esteem and their overall wellbeing. And because our creative nannies are trained in everything from drama and arts and crafts to yoga and foreign languages, your little ones can go on a range of different learning adventures with CocoRio.
2. We tailor co-working childcare to your needs
No matter your working hours or whether you're looking for an ad hoc or long-term working arrangement, we personalise our creative childcare to you. That means, we’re here to help your little ones learn and thrive in your working environment, they could be close enough that you can be involved with as little or as much of their schedule as you like, or out of sight so that you can focus on working without feeling guilty. What can your CocoRio creative nanny do on-site? The possibilities are endless, from sensory play and storytelling to exploring the local area and finding green spaces to teach them about nature. The best part? You won’t miss out on those key moments and milestones, as you’ll always be close-by.
3. We’re passionate about unstructured learning environments
Step this way for personalised, small group learning which aims to upskill your little ones while supporting their development and wellbeing. Our creative nannies and mentors are trained to generate curiosity and foster a love of learning to spark creativity, all while looking after your little ones while you work. Our approach? Creative learning that aligns with the Early Years Foundation Stage principles and takes inspiration from elements of the Montessori method and the Finnish education system. That’s why we’re passionate about learning through play, getting messy and creative, exploring the world around them and experiencing learning from a child-centred perspective. Plus, unlike term-time nurseries and childcare arrangements, CocoRio creative childcare can take place all year round, making it your most reliable and practical solution while you work.
