What is a drop-in daycare?
- A drop-in daycare is a program where parents can drop their children off for a few hours per day or when their regular care isn't available. Some programs may offer full-day drop-in care while others only provide a few hours of care at a time.

How does drop-in daycare work
- For most drop-in daycare programs, you need to register your child in advance. Then, once you are enrolled, you can 'drop-in' when you need to. You may need to call ahead each day to ensure there is availability or book your spot online. Drop-in daycares are great when your regular childcare falls through or if you just need a few hours of care here and there.
