Corporate events are meant to inspire, connect, and engage—yet for many working parents, attending can be a logistical challenge. The number one reason employees skip after-hours functions or multi-day events? Childcare.
At Children At Play Event Childcare, we’ve seen firsthand how providing onsite childcare at corporate gatherings not only boosts attendance, but also enhances the overall experience for everyone involved.
Let’s explore why offering childcare isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s a smart business move.
When parents know their children are safe, nearby, and entertained, they’re more likely to say yes to your event. This is especially important for:
– Conferences & summits
– Team-building retreats
– Holiday parties & galas
– Networking mixers
– Training seminars or multi-day offsites
By removing the stress of finding a sitter or leaving early, you create a more inclusive environment where all employees and guests can participate fully.
Workplaces are becoming more diverse, and so are their needs. Offering childcare:
– Sends a strong message of support to working parents
– Aligns with family-first and DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) values
– Helps close participation gaps, especially for women in the workforce
Inclusivity shouldn’t stop at the door—it should extend to the realities of family life.
Our event childcare services go far beyond coloring books. We offer:
– Age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities
– Trained, CPR/First Aid certified caregivers
– Safe, secure check-in and check-out processes
– Custom setups for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children
We turn any event space into a fun and engaging kids’ zone—so you can focus on your event, while we focus on the little ones.
Adding childcare to your event isn’t just a perk—it’s a value-add:
– Boost employee morale and loyalty
– Improve attendance metrics
– Reinforce a family-friendly brand culture
– Increase engagement and time spent onsite
It’s the kind of thoughtful detail that people remember—and talk about long after the event ends.
If you’re planning a corporate function and want to boost attendance while supporting the working parents on your team, we’re here to help.
You provide the space, we provide the fun.
