I love that they have a structure that allows them to maintain some normalcy.” A Bright Horizons Back-Up Care user reports that back-up care “has been an unexpected blessing, very much appreciated as it allows working parents to maintain their productivity” and describes transitioning “seamlessly between school/daycare and back-up care on our breaks and unexpected losses of care experienced during the pandemic.”
