Nanny on Demand In-home Childcare Service

On-demand in-home childcare helps working families cover unexpected care gaps, such as school closures, caregiver cancellations, sick days, or schedule changes. Through Helpr, employers can subsidize access to trusted caregivers, allowing employees to book support through an app-based platform while reducing last-minute absences and workday disruptions.

Helpr is designed for employer-sponsored backup care programs. Companies offer the benefit to employees, who can then access childcare support when regular care falls through. Depending on the program design, care may be subsidized by the employer and coordinated through Helpr’s platform, including vetted provider access and My Choice caregiver flexibility.

Helpr supports care through trusted and vetted care providers, while also offering My Choice technology for families who prefer to use a familiar caregiver, such as a friend, family member, or neighborhood sitter. This combination gives employees flexibility while helping employers deliver a structured, trackable family care benefit.

Yes. Helpr’s backup care programs are built for sudden care needs, including school closures, sick days, unexpected schedule changes, and regular caregiver cancellations. Availability can depend on the employer’s specific program and local care resources, but the platform is designed to help employees find care when conventional arrangements are disrupted.

My Choice is Helpr’s patented bring-your-own-caregiver technology. It allows employees to use employer-provided funds with a trusted caregiver they already know, such as a relative, friend, or neighborhood sitter. This is especially helpful for families who want continuity, cultural fit, or location-specific caregiver options outside a standard provider network.

Pricing depends on the employer’s benefit structure and the care program selected. For backup care appointments, advertised hourly costs include taxes and Helpr’s service fee, with no additional base appointment charges to the payment method. Minimum appointment payments, overtime, early return fees, and optional gratuities may apply based on appointment details.

Helpr supports enterprises, nonprofits, and distributed teams, including organizations in retail, entertainment, technology, finance, healthcare, and consumer goods. The platform is especially useful for companies seeking to reduce absenteeism, improve retention, support working parents, and offer equitable benefits across hourly, salaried, remote, and global employee populations.

Helpr has expanded to support employees across 150+ countries through global backup care, My Choice flexibility, and care stipend options. Program availability, eligible care types, and reimbursement models may vary by employer and geography, making it suitable for multinational organizations that need family care support across distributed workforces.
