Jalanda Launches 'Daechi Ride', a Daechi Commute Solution

Jaranda Launches 'Daechi Ride', an Accompaniment Service for Academy Commutes: Solving Childcare Gaps and Transportation Concerns for Dual-Income Families at Once Jaranda, a customized childcare and education platform, has unveiled 'Daechi Ride', an innovative service designed to resolve the chronic concerns of busy modern parents: the childcare gap and learning path issues that arise when children commute to academies and other external institutions. This is a new concept of accompaniment service that goes beyond a simple pickup service, prioritizing the child's safety and the parents' peace of mind. **A Solution Precisely Targeting Parents' Pain Points** With the recent increase in dual-income households, single-parent families, and grandparent-raising families, the burden on parents regarding after-school care and academy commutes is growing daily. The 'childcare gap' that occurs each time children move from school to academies, libraries, and other places not only disrupts learning plans but also heightens anxiety about the child's safety. Daechi Ride is a service born from combining Jaranda's extensive childcare experience and field data with these urgent needs of parents. **Safe and Reliable 'Teacher Accompaniment' Service** The core of Daechi Ride lies in 'safe accompaniment'. Jaranda's experienced teachers, selected through identity verification and rigorous screening, directly accompany the child and safely travel to their destination using various modes of transportation such as walking, bus, subway, or taxi. This goes beyond simple travel assistance, providing emotional stability as a familiar and trustworthy adult is with the child. **Real-time Communication and Seamless Safety System** To enhance the reliability of the service, Jaranda has implemented several measures. Before and after accompaniment, teachers take photos of the travel process and share them in real-time with guardians, allowing parents to check their child's safe travel status at any time. Furthermore, the system is designed so that a regularly assigned teacher accompanies the child, ensuring the child can use the service stably without stress from unfamiliar individuals. In the event of an accident caused by teacher negligence during travel, a safety net is established through professional liability insurance to provide compensation, alleviating parents' concerns. **Service Flexibility and Reasonable Costs** Daechi Ride boasts high flexibility, as parents can use it on a one-time basis when needed or apply for it regularly if consistent assistance is required. Service fees are determined by the number of accompaniments, and transportation costs incurred during travel are borne separately as actual expenses, forming a reasonable structure. **Vision of Jaranda, a Leading Childcare and Education Company** Jaranda is a leader in childcare and education platforms, having accumulated over 1.5 million hours of childcare and matching expertise. It has successfully demonstrated its capabilities by carrying out various public and private projects, including the Seoul Small Business Childcare Support Program. Kim Sung-hwan, CEO of Jaranda, stated, "Daechi Ride is Jaranda's promise to minimize learning path gaps and build a childcare infrastructure where guardians can feel secure," adding, "Our goal is to support children to grow in a safe and stable environment." Currently, Daechi Ride has launched its service primarily in Seoul and parts of Gyeonggi Province, with plans to gradually expand its service areas. Daechi Ride is expected to offer a new childcare solution for busy modern families, significantly contributing to the safe growth and creation of a conducive learning environment for children.
