[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't used Bright Horizons since before the pandemic, but I did not find them to be very reliable for day-of issues. Often if something came up in the morning (sick nanny, preschool closure), I couldn't get someone there until 10am or so. They were okay for days where I could plan ahead (nanny vacation or something like that).[/quote] +1 My employer has Bright Horizons back-up care, but when I looked at it, you had to give at least 24-48 hours notice and that was before COVID. So it's good for when you can plan ahead for a long nanny illness or something...but not when your kid wakes up vomiting and you have no backup option other than elementary school.[/quote]
