Larkin Childcare Navigation Benefit

Your Care Advisor will find local childcare options—actually available—based on your specific needs.

  • Childcare "Family Fit" Analysis

    Is a home daycare or a daycare center the best fit for your family? What about alternatives like Montessori? What should you know before starting a Nanny Share or hiring an Au Pair? What environment would best fit your child's personality and your family's style?

  • Camps: Holiday & Summer

    You can spend five hours figuring out the availability and details for a fantastic summer or winter camp plan, but you can also have your personal Care Advisor do it for you and spend your time doing something fun.

  • Before & After School Care

    Outline your needs and we’ll find every good option available, including transportation and costs.

  • Ways to Pay for Care

    Your Care Advisor will help you make use of every tax, employer, and government benefit to help pay for childcare, including Larkin's FSA benefit program.
