Brella’s mission is to make high-quality child care flexible, simple, and easy to manage whenever families need it. The program offers flexible scheduling options with no long-term contracts, no extra fees and deposits, and no waitlists or contracts, and the first 10 hours cost the same for everyone while every incremental hour after the tenth lowers the average hourly cost. Families can schedule care at any Brella location within a network of care and manage schedules, profiles, and pick-ups through a mobile app. If families cancel hours within the cancellation window, they receive credit back. Meals, diapers, and extra help are covered.

Brella offers intentional learning experiences that nurture curiosity, confidence, and early skills through play, exploration, and guided activities, with programs that support every stage of early childhood from first milestones to kindergarten readiness. The program provides support for the whole family through regular events, parent education classes, resources, and opportunities to learn together, including a regular schedule of community events and programming such as parent-and-me experiences and expert-led classes on fertility, newborn care, parenting, and more. Brella is a California state licensed child care facility. Brella is described by families as a metaphorical village where families are supported.

Parent testimonials describe Brella as offering an oh-so-flexible schedule combined with care and educational opportunities, a home-away-from-home with a well-rounded and fun education and an interactive and developmentally focused play area, and a place where children have flourished under dedicated care with help and guidance on feeding, sleep, and key growth milestones. Parents also describe the hours and flexibility as important, refer to Brella as a community of families with different backgrounds and beliefs that takes equality, self exploration, and a growth mindset to the next level, and say the staff and teachers have become their “village” and a game changer for part-time care. One family describes Brella as more than “just” childcare and something that has made a huge difference in their lives over the last couple of years.
