A handful of emergency days isn’t coverage. When a sitter cancels or school closes, your people need child care that actually shows up, covers the day, and is there even when everyone needs it at once. That’s what Upwards is built for.
In the traditional credit model, you pay a flat rate per half-day or per credit. Credits expire. Out-of-network markups stack up. And the model pays off most when care never happens at all, because every unused credit is margin. Upwards is built so your spend turns into care, not overhead.
Contract lock-in is the number one reason a switch stalls. We time the move to your renewal date and handle the migration, so your people never lose child care coverage.
What parents say“Upwards came through in the clutch! When our school has random days off, we are able to find care for Upwards to allow us to keep working while knowing our kids are being taken care of. It's an incredible service that I am grateful Chobani provides. With the days off our school provides for breaks, it's helpful to be able to have an uninterrupted work week. Without the service, we would need to find a way for one of our parents to come in town for a few days, which is unrealistic to do multiple times a year.”
