Pinch Hitter Care – last-minute child care for working parents
A New England Nanny offers a unique program to companies who would like to offer dependent backup care as a company-subsidized employee benefit program. It is a service that provides emergency / temporary backup child care and elder care for families to help them keep work obligations when their dependent is sick or when the usual child care provider has cancelled at the last minute.
Employers like Pinch Hitter because
- avoids the hassle of employees taking a last-minute day off
- employees maintain their daily work schedule without canceling any work obligations or missing deadlines
- it is a relatively low cost employee benefit program, considering the productivity that is lost each time an employee is absent or late
Employees like Pinch Hitter Backup Child Care because
- helps both parents work at their jobs effectively
- there is a responsible professional child care provider on hand
- they can meet their work obligations and not have to cancel meetings or last-minute trips
- they don’t have to pay a fortune for the care (as it is subsidized by their company)
How Emergency Child Care And Elder Care works
- From Mon–Thurs 6am-9pm, Fri 6am-5pm and Sun 5pm-9pm the employee can call for immediate assistance for a qualified caregiver to be dispatched to their home
- The employee pays a reasonable pre-determined out-of-pocket fee to the child care provider and the company subsidizes the balance
- The employee is relieved, company moral is high and the company is winning the fight against employee-parent related absences!
