Emergency Childcare
Emergency Childcare
Whether it's a last minute panic, or an anticipated gap in childcare, we provide the choices that parents want
With unparalleled access to high quality childcare, you can count on us to find the solution you need when you need it most.
After all, when you have young children it's not a question of if you have a childcare breakdown but when.
Be prepared for life's little emergencies
Emergency Childcare allows you to book an emergency nanny, nursery or childminder across the UK when you need it most.
Our registered parents have the peace of mind of knowing they've already got a backup plan in place, and are able to:
- Search for t
heir local childcare options
(nannies, nurseries, childminders) - Save favourites for future reference
- Arrange to visit any they're interested in
(this isn't required, although it can be reassuring) - Suggest other childcarers they'd like to join
- Book last minute childcare with us
Read more about Nannies, Nurseries, and Childminders.
Our highly trained nannies and childminders are fully DBS/PVG checked and have had First Aid training*.
As well as being regulated by Ofsted and other appropriate regulatory bodies, the majority of our nurseries and childminders have been used and recommended by individual parents.
* When you book with us you'll have the opportunity to discuss all our quality standards.
Childcare can be booked for whenever you need - today, tomorrow, or up to 3 months in advance (on a day-at-a-time basis).
A few examples of when parents use us:
- Their usual nursery is closed for the day
- Their permanent nanny is off sick
- Their childminder is going to be on holiday
- The school has (another) inset day
- They need to work from home.
