The Good People Care Alliance:

One Trusted Care Solution for Employers 

Dulany Reeves Dent is the Founder and CEO of The Nanny Network. With more than 20 years of experience in the care industry and business, she understands that caregiving challenges affect an overwhelming majority of employees, as well as families and productivity. 

Ms. Dent recognized the need for a streamlined network of care providers that eases stress for families and simplifies HR administration. That vision led to The Good People Care Alliance. The Good People Care Alliance brings together trusted, vetted care partners with established track records. The founding alliance partners include - The Nanny Network, The Option Group, Avila Home Care, and Your Teacher Tutors. Together, the alliance offers employers in the Baltimore-Washington, DC metropolitan area one simple, local care benefit that supports real life and strengthens their workplace. 

Ms. Dent’s goal with The Good People Care Alliance is to deliver high-quality care into homes and limit workplace disruption, allowing families and businesses to thrive. “Our commitment to quality care and one-stop shopping for employers” is what makes Good People Care Alliance different from any other employee caregiving solution available today. 

The alliance's key message is that comprehensive caregiving support is a necessary investment in workforce performance, not simply an employee benefit.
