Case Study: Great Kids, Inc. achieves compliant international hiring and rapid Nova Scotia expansion with Pebl Velocity Global's International PEO

Great Kids Enabling an Ambitious Nonprofit to Change Lives Abroad

Great Kids, Inc., a nonprofit 501(c)(3) that delivers home-based early childhood development programs to at-risk families, wanted to expand into Nova Scotia but had no experience hiring internationally, lacked familiarity with Canadian employment law, and did not want to establish a local entity or use an independent contractor. To recruit an in-country expert to develop a local guide for its home visitors, Great Kids, Inc. engaged Pebl Velocity Global and its International PEO solution.

Pebl Velocity Global drafted compliant Canadian benefits, health and retirement proposals and provided ongoing guidance and communication, removing the legal and administrative hurdles to hire abroad. As a result, Great Kids, Inc. compliantly onboarded its first international employee within one month, gained confidence to operate in Nova Scotia, and produced essential developmental materials reaching families in both the United States and Canada—with plans to rely on Pebl Velocity Global for future international hires.
