A nationwide fleet requires child care options that go the distance.

The Client

Daimler Truck North America is a leading truck manufacturer with headquarters based in Portland, Oregon. The organization values operational efficiency and relies on a lean HR team of eight professionals to support over 18,000 employees nationwide.

The Opportunity

Daimler made comprehensive family benefits a key part of its talent strategy, with the goal of providing multiple child care benefits to support its workforce. To achieve this, the company needed a child care provider capable of offering nationwide coverage along with an on-site center for employees who work at headquarters. Daimler chose KinderCare Learning Companies to provide a custom on-site solution and answer the child care needs of a dispersed workforce.
