Online healthcare services provider Care.com announced it will relocate its headquarters from Austin to Dallas, a move that will add another corporate presence and jobs to the city’s Uptown area.
“Relocating our headquarters to Dallas is more than just a move—it’s fuel for our next chapter,” CEO Brad Wilson said in a statement. “As we tackle one of society’s most pressing challenges, joining a bustling tech and business ecosystem will help us further accelerate our mission to make finding care for loved ones simpler, faster, and more accessible, giving families peace of mind and caregivers greater job opportunities.”
Care.com is one of the largest providers of online services for finding family care and care jobs. In 2020, the company was acquired by New York-based IAC (NASDAQ: IAC) in a $500 million all-cash transaction.
The company said its move to Dallas marks a pivotal step in its next phase of growth serving families and caregivers and strengthens its ability to scale, attract top tech talent, and drive continued innovation in one of the nation’s fastest-growing tech hubs.
The recently renovated headquarters is located in Uptown Dallas at One West Village, 2801 N. Central Expressway. The new headquarters provides the infrastructure needed to support Care.com’s plans for growth and workforce expansion, the company said.
‘This city has innovation baked into its DNA’
“We see Dallas not just as our next stop, but our long-term home,” Wes Burke, chief human resources officer of Care.com, said in a statement. “This city has innovation baked into its DNA, making it the perfect place to grow our talented team alongside other online marketplace businesses in the area, to make a lasting impact on the local economy.”
Wilson, along with several Care.com executives, will be based out of the new Dallas office amid the transition, which will be effective later this spring, the company said. While Dallas will serve as the company’s headquarters, Care.com said it will maintain office locations in Austin, Salt Lake City, Shelton, Connecticut, and New York City, in addition to its strong remote workforce.
Care.com was represented by Garrison Efird, Steven Rotter, and Marcella LaHara with Newmark in securing their new location, with OliveMill Holdings as the property owner.
Care.com’s services span in-home and in-center care solutions.
