New Business Openings – May 2022

June Care

Child care by families for families, June Care is a parent-to-parent child care service in Orange County. The pandemic has caused a tremendous demand for accessible, affordable child care. June Care offers a new way to help tackle the OC child care shortage by connecting parents who are in need of child care with stay-at-home parents who can provide child care services for kids. After creating your profile, a June Care matching specialist sends matches based on ages of kids, location and scheduling needs, then coordinates a video call and a trial playdate as the first introduction. June Care handles all logistics and payments.
