Backup Childcare for Businesses

In addition to our drop in service, RightTimeKIDS also provides backup childcare solutions to businesses. The backup solution affords businesses the ability to provide childcare options to all employees without having to commit to building onsite daycare centers or sign long-term contracts for backup care.

RightTimeKIDS backup childcare service utilizes RightTimeKIDS’ existing retail locations to significantly decrease an employer’s backup care costs, while providing high quality service. We can design a program to serve a small or large number of employees, and you give your employees piece of mind knowing they have a reliable backup childcare plan.


Employer Benefits of Backup Childcare
RightTimeKIDS recognizes that employers are looking for better solutions. To meet the needs of our clients we have developed a simple, no hassle program to keep employees on the job when they need backup childcare. Backup childcare:

Eliminates unplanned employee absences for childcare related issues
1Provides solutions for year-round school schedules
Accommodates flexible work schedules
Increases worker productivity


Backup Childcare = Employee Benefit

Every employer, large or small, has to deal with employees that cannot come to work, a meeting, or a company function because their childcare arrangements fell through. And just as healthcare benefits help employees when they are sick, backup childcare benefits give employees the piece of mind to know that their children have a safe place to go when their regular childcare resources are unavailable.
"Backup childcare is one of the clearest [employee benefits] to get ROI figures on. It's very easy to say, We saved x dollars because we were able to place this child."

"Backup childcare appeals to today’s dual emphasis on work-life flexibility and workplace productivity. Eighty percent of employers experience shortened work days each year because an employee’s child care arrangements fall through, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. U.S. companies lose $3 billion annually as a consequence of child care-related absences, estimates the Child Care Action Campaign."
