Our Motivation
The Why
This century’s ever more busy and demanding lifestyle is taking its toll on us: despite living in crowded cities and having large social circles, more and more people are feeling the lack of community. Increasing social and economic stressors can highly affect and deeply damage parent’s quality of life which in turn have detrimental effects on children. The lack of emotional, physical, and instrumental support for many families is imminent. Life concurring events have amplified the existing family issues and highlighted the importance of human connection, collaborations and job flexibility.
We have lived first-hand the necessity of modern solutions that adapt to our changing circumstances. Yet, we are aware it is not only childcare solutions… It is parent care, care of the mental and emotional well-being of all members… helping hands, and assistance that accommodates to our unique family needs and wants!
Our motivation did not originate only from the need of receiving support, but from the beautiful human need to give back and help others. We are commited to innovating and finding modern solutions where people feel supported, at the same time are given opportunities to assist others, in a flexible, reliable, cost effective and caring way.
We have made it our mission then, to offer solutions to social problems that modern families experience in a daily basis; solutions that are convenient and cost efficient, so that everyone can enjoy the benefits. The goal is for people to be able to grow or confront any hectic/unfortunate period without disrupting their daily flow or making unnecessary expenses giving a sense of balance in the family and achievement in the individual that ripples to our children.
Excellence – We strive to continuously improve to better serve, by constantly and agilely adjusting our services as needed. We keep connected and attuned through on-going research and community feedback.
Trust and Transparency – All employees and verified Attenders of Appreci must first meet our high-quality standards and have adequate training and knowledge before engaging with any members of our community.
