Occasional Childcare
Backup childcare for nanny callouts
Gabi Childcare’s occasional childcare service provides discreet, reliable, high caliber support for families who need flexible, on demand coverage. Our elite caregivers are trained to step in for last minute needs like backup care, meetings, events, date nights, sick day care, errands, travel days, or schedule changes.
Our occasional childcare team includes specialists in infant care, active boys, multiple children, special needs, neurodivergent support, and newborn routines. Families benefit from LGBTQ+ inclusive caregivers, multilingual professionals, and the option to request additional safety measures like GPS tracking, drug testing, and caregivers with driving records. You’ll receive the same assigned caregiver whenever possible, along with a designated substitute caregiver who steps in if your primary caregiver is unavailable ensuring consistent, reliable care for every visit. If your caregiver isn’t the right match, we’ll support you and rematch your family with another vetted professional who fits your needs. Every caregiver is federally fingerprinted, background checked, professionally trained, and fully vetted, giving families complete confidence and peace of mind. All professionals are paid on the books, ensuring compliance and trust. We do not run nanny payroll, but we provide our team with payroll processing and high level training opportunities.
Occasional Childcare is our membership service where families purchase childcare credits in advance for a discount rate. You can use your credits anytime you need care. Offering flexible, convenient, and childcare ready when you are.
Serving NYC, Westchester and Long Island, we provide premium reliable backup childcare trusted by everyday families to executives to celebrities to influencers, diplomats to high profile clients who require confidentiality and excellence. Occasional childcare gives families flexibility, safety, and high end professional support—without the full time commitment.
