Care when you need it most
The National Institutes of Health has contracted with Bright Horizons to offer the NIH community access to back-up care when they need to be at work and their regular child or adult/elder care is unavailable.
This new program can help when:
§ Your regular caregiver or stay-at-home spouse is unavailable
§ You are transitioning between child or adult/elder care arrangements
§ Your child's regular center or school is closed
§ Your child or adult/elder relative is mildly ill or needs temporary assistance
§ You need care for yourself
The NIH community has access to the following back-up care programs:
§ Center-based child care
§ In-home child care
§ In-home mildly ill child care
§ In-home adult/elder care
§ Self care (when YOU need care)
