Process
How event childcare works
Adding professional childcare to your event is simpler than you think. Here's exactly how it works, from first inquiry to day-of execution.

Receive a custom proposal
Within 24 hours, you'll receive a detailed proposal with staffing plan, caregiver-to-child ratios, activity framework, and pricing.

- 04
We show up ready on event day
Our team arrives early, sets up the childcare space, and operates independently throughout your event. You focus on your attendees; we focus on their kids.
- 05
Post-event wrap-up
We provide a full summary of the childcare session, including attendance numbers and any feedback, so you can document the benefit for future planning.
What's included
Everything is handled for you
Event childcare from Call Emmy isn't a staffing placement — it's a fully managed service. Here's what comes standard with every engagement.
Vetted caregivers
All caregivers are background-checked, reference-verified, and operate under Call Emmy's liability coverage.
Age-appropriate activities
Structured programming for infants through age 12, tailored to the duration of your event.
Caregiver-to-child ratios
We staff to meet or exceed state childcare ratio requirements for every age group present.
Venue coordination
We work directly with your venue to identify the right space, furniture, and access requirements.
Day-of operations
Our team manages check-in, check-out, emergencies, and parent communication throughout the event.
Post-event summary
A written report covering attendance, incidents (none expected), and notes for future planning.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
- How far in advance do I need to book?
- We recommend booking at least 3–4 weeks in advance for larger events (50+ children). Smaller events can sometimes be accommodated with 1–2 weeks' notice. Contact us as early as possible to confirm availability.
- What ages do you care for?
- We provide care for infants (6 weeks+) through age 12. Age ranges are confirmed during the quoting process so we can staff appropriately for each group.
- What if a child gets hurt or sick during the event?
- All of our caregivers are First Aid and CPR certified. We have a defined protocol for injuries and illness, including immediate parent notification. Call Emmy carries liability coverage for every event, and organizers receive documentation as part of the booking confirmation.
- Do you provide supplies and equipment?
- We provide age-appropriate activity supplies. For infant care, we ask that parents provide diapers, formula, and any items specific to their child. We work with venues to arrange any needed furniture.
- Can you handle events outside Colorado?
- Yes. Call Emmy has provided event childcare nationally. Travel logistics are factored into the proposal. Contact us with your event location for availability.
