drop-in care

No-appointment babysitting service

Drop-in care is childcare that doesn't require advance scheduling or ongoing enrollment.

Parents can bring children on short notice, paying by the hour or visit rather than committing to a regular arrangement: The gym offers drop-in care while you work out.

Drop-in centers serve parents with unpredictable schedules or occasional needs.
