Childcare Professionals for Families and Employers

A childcare professional is a caregiver who supports children’s safety, routines, learning, and wellbeing. Depending on the arrangement, this may include a vetted sitter, nanny, center-based provider, or another trusted caregiver. Through Helpr, families can access employer-supported care options for backup needs, long-term placement, events, or caregivers already within their personal support network.

An employer establishes a Helpr care benefit for eligible employees, often contributing toward the cost of care. When a regular childcare plan is unavailable, employees use the Helpr platform to arrange backup care. Helpr’s use-based model means organizations pay for care that is actually used, while employees receive meaningful support during unexpected disruptions.

Yes. Helpr’s patented My Choice technology allows employees to use subsidies with trusted caregivers in their existing network, including family members, friends, or other chosen support people. This approach gives families more control over their care arrangements and helps make benefits accessible in areas where traditional provider networks may be limited.

Helpr supports several childcare needs, including employer-subsidized backup care, long-term concierge placement, on-site corporate event care, and flexible care stipends. Employees may also use My Choice for trusted out-of-network caregivers. In addition, the platform supports broader family needs, including elder and adult dependent care, for a more complete benefit.

Corporate event childcare provides on-site care during company gatherings, meetings, conferences, and work trips. It helps employees with caregiving responsibilities attend, participate, and stay focused without needing to arrange separate childcare. For employers, it is a practical way to make events more inclusive and ensure more team members can take part.

Yes. Helpr provides global care benefits across 150+ countries, helping employers extend family care support to distributed teams. Options may include vetted providers, flexible stipends, and My Choice support, allowing employees to use care arrangements that work within their local circumstances while maintaining a consistent employer benefit experience.

Helpr includes DCFSA-integrated payments that allow eligible families to apply Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account benefits within the app. Using available pre-tax care funds can help families manage eligible childcare expenses more effectively. Employees should review their plan rules and eligible expense requirements to understand how their specific DCFSA benefit may be used.

Employers can work with Helpr to shape a care benefit around their workforce, including backup care, subsidies, My Choice access, event care, or concierge placement. The platform is designed for employees across roles and locations. A thoughtful rollout can explain eligibility, available care options, and how employees access support through the app.
