Flexible Care Options

Flexible Prepaid Care at Cherubs Auburn

Need childcare without a full-time commitment? Our prepaid care packages offer dependable, high-quality care on your schedule. Choose the option that fits your needs — full days or shorter visits — with clear policies, advance scheduling, and no hidden fees.

🔔 Note: Our care packages are designed for families who need occasional or short-term care. If your child needs consistent care every week, our full-time and part-time enrollment options offer better per-day rates and guaranteed placement.

Daily Care Packages (Full-Day, 8 Hours)

Designed for families who need occasional full-day care — perfect for backup coverage, seasonal needs, or schedule gaps.

  • Prepay for a set number of full days (8 hours/day)

  • Use only the days you need, booked in advance

  • Flexible option without a weekly commitment

  • Space is limited and subject to availability

Daily packages offer great flexibility — but are not intended for families who need regular weekly care.

Hourly Care Packages (4-Hours Per Day)

Perfect for families who need short-term, part-day care — such as for doctor visits, hybrid workdays, or occasional gaps in coverage.

  • Prepay for hours and use them in 4-hour blocks

  • Reserve morning or afternoon sessions in advance

  • Not designed for weekly or ongoing care

Hourly packages are ideal for occasional use only and do not guarantee a consistent classroom or staff.

❤️ Why Families Love Our Care Packages

    Flexible Full-Day Childcare, Only When You Need It

    Our Daily Packages offer prepaid care for families who need occasional full-day coverage without a weekly commitment. It’s perfect for backup care, seasonal needs, or temporary gaps in your schedule.

    ⚠️These packages are designed for flexibility and convenience, not for families needing regular weekly care. If you need care 2 or more days per week, our part-time and full-time programs offer better daily rates and guaranteed placement.
