About Us:
========
CareLuLu is on a mission to help improve access to safe, affordable, quality child care and early education. We help parents find the right child care or preschool program, by providing all the information in one place (photos, openings, cost, verified reviews, etc.) CareLuLu also helps child care programs grow their business while saving time for what truly matters: children!

=====================
Compensation / Benefits:
=====================
• 13th month and possibility of HMO with tenure
• Flexible work-from-home setting (no more commute!)
• Competitive salary (50,000 to 150,000+, negotiable based on skills and experience)
• Flexible and understanding team when it comes to time-off, family emergencies, etc.
• Team gatherings/events (e.g. buffet dinners) + annual team retreat for a few days in a nice villa!

We are looking for long-term team members and if you consistently contribute to the team & company, you will have room for growth. However, we have VERY high expectations of ourselves and of team members so you should not apply if you are looking for a “comfy” work-from-home job. If you are up for the challenge and opportunity, there is no better place for you!
