History
1Core Solution was founded by Simon Ho in 2004 under the name of Childcare Online Services (COS). Swami Venkat, a software engineer, joined the company as a co-founder and CTO.

Four years after its launch, Childcare Online Services was acquired by Knowledge Universe Technology, a technology arm within the same holding company that owns KinderCare, the largest childcare provider in the world. COS was renamed OnCare and expanded in India.

Three years after the acquisition, KinderCare divested from operating a technology business, and Ho reacquired OnCare and rebranded the business as 1Core Solution in 2020.
