Allygatr invests in childcare startup

The start-up Heynannyly has set itself the goal of reconciling children and career. Now Allygatr is joining as a strategic partner and investor.

The HR start-up Allygatr is investing in the platform Heynannyly. On the Heynannyly platform, parents can book insured childcare on short notice. Allygatr founder and CEO Benjamin Visser thinks childcare and HR are a good fit. "Investing in this solution is only logical in my opinion. We are creating a way to take the pressure off parents so that their daily work and personal lives become easier. Ultimately, this benefits not only the families themselves, but also teams and companies." The founder has been providing strategic and financial support to the start-up since the beginning of March.

Julia Kahle and Anna Schneider co-founded Heynannyly 2021. The founders have developed an app that allows working parents to book childcare at short notice. By their own account, the babysitters on the platform go through strict security checks. A matching algorithm then places the caregivers with parents according to criteria such as location, language skills and age of the child. They can then get to know each other personally via video call and chat.

The app is soon to be launched in Munich. Together with Allygatr, the founders plan to offer the platform in other cities in the future.
