Care @ Work

Administered by Care.com, Care@Work provides backup care services when working families are faced with a disruption in regular childcare coverage, or the responsibility of aging parents.

Care@work is intended for back-up care only. Backup Care is a service families can use to secure temporary and reliable care for their child or adult dependent in the event of an emergency or unforeseen disruption of their regular care. With Backup Care, Caregivers have access to an affordable backup plan, so they don’t have to choose between missing a day of work and caring for their loved one.

As of January 1, 2024, summer camps are no longer eligible under the Care@Work benefit. Since the program is for back-up care purposes and summer camps are planned in advance, they do not align with the intent of the program.

  • Care.com Membership: Premium, unlimited access to Care.com to find caregivers, tutors, senior caregivers, pet walkers and sitters, and more.
  • Backup Care
    • For Children: Eight backup care days per year for in-home or in-center vetted and subsidized care for your children when your regular care is not available.
    • For Adults: We provide Backup Care for adults for rides to doctor appointments, help recovering from surgery, and more
    • Co-pays are as follows:
      • $4 per hour for in-home childcare or adult care
      • $15 per day for in-center child care
  • Personal Network Backup Care: You can have a family member, neighbor, friend, or regular sitter watch your child(ren) and get reimbursed for a portion of the cost.

Enroll on christianacare.care.com at anytime (even if it's not Open Enrollment) to access these benefits. You will use your Employee ID number to register. Make sure to download the Care @ Work mobile app to quickly request backup care! Click here to learn more.
