About Humly
Humly revolutionises education with a digital marketplace that empowers supply educators with full-career control and gives schools, nurseries, and children instant access to a great education. We are more than a supply agency. While we will always be available by phone for our educators and clients, our app allows clients to raise supply requests themselves, and our educators to see all available work and book themselves in directly with the nursery.
We’ve been doing it since 2015, and it’s why we’re the market leader in Sweden and have the most downloaded supply app in the UK.
