Fun and educational child care by professional caregivers, wherever and whenever it’s needed
What is Pop-Up Child Care?
Pop-Up Child Care provides on-demand, on-site, child care services by trained caregivers. Child care is available for children from 16 months up to school age at accessible prices and available indoors or outside.
What are the benefits of on-site child care?
Reducing barriers
Providing on-site child care makes it easier for parents to participate and engage with your event, service, or business.
Improved relationships
Considering the child care needs of parents fosters trust and stronger relationships with your customers, clients, or audience.
Better attendance
When parents can bring their children along, it’s more likely they’ll attend events, services, or businesses and stay longer.
Community building
When children play with each other during child care, their parents get to know one another too, encouraging a community to develop around your organization.
How it works
Serving businesses, non-profits, events, and more!
What people say
"The gala night is our busiest, fastest-moving, and most important night of the year for us, and we felt completely supported and comfortable knowing that childminding was covered. The space looked beautiful and so, so fun for the kiddos to enjoy."
