💚 About Famly
At Famly, we're on a mission to give children the best possible start to life by supporting the people who make that happen every day: early-years professionals.
It all started when our co-founder Henrik dropped off his daughter at daycare and realised how much was still being done with pen and paper—and how distant that made him feel from her day. Together with Anders, now our CEO, they set out to build software that bridges that gap.
Today, Famly is used by 34,000 childcare professionals and hundreds of thousands of parents to:
Communicate in real-time
Reduce admin stress
Improve planning, pedagogy, and finances
And ultimately, give more time to the little ones that matter most
Want to help us do even more of that? We’d love to have you.
