Famiio Information

Famiio is developing an easy-to- use, online marketplace for parents to access reliable information on all available childcare (including flexible* and blended** childcare) and family services across the UK – think ‘Trivago + NHS Choices’ for childcare. Free to parents, Famiio will work across all borders with a flexible and mobile-friendly interface, enabling 24/7 self-service by even the busiest of parents, and no more wasted lunchbreaks spent on multiple fruitless phone calls to providers. A true multi-sided platform, Famiio will work with local authorities, service providers, commissioners and parents to ensure everyone benefits, whilst providing potential national cost-savings of £3million pa on software alone. Local authorities will continue to manage this data with a far better system, and Famiio will publish a huge Open-Dataset of UK family service information to enable smart commissioning (anticipated 500,000 providers). Famiio will also bring together related information agendas, including SEND Local Offer, children’s activities, disabled facilities, short breaks, volunteering, positive activities for young people, and adult social care, for a complete family information solution. * Flexible Childcare: Flexible hours to work around your schedule and meet job and career commitments. ** Blended Childcare: Provided through multiple and joined-up providers to meet atypical working patterns and emergencies.
