You need childcare

Disney has a plan for short- and long-term child care needs.

Care.com conducts full background checks on backup child care providers for help in a pinch. For ongoing child care, they can work with you to find a child care facility near you. Get started.

Check if your work location has an onsite child care program.

Learn more on the Parents and Family Care tab.

Use your Sick Time or Care Time.

Disney allows you to use Sick Time or Care Time when your child is ill, or if you have other caregiving needs. If you’re eligible, learn more.

Rewarding, but sometimes stressful.

It takes a lot of trust to place your child in someone else’s care. Just remember—you deserve a break sometimes. Take advantage of the mindfulness resources Disney offers when the pressure starts to add up. 

Seek support during your child-raising years.

Family issues are normal for every household. The Cigna Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is great for individual and couples counseling to address it. You have up to 10 free counseling sessions with a licensed professional. Schedule an appointment by calling 1-800-952-6676 or visiting the Cigna Well-Being website for Disney employees and Cast Members.

Talk to other parents.

There’s strength in numbers. Trade stories and tips with other parents in your community. Your work location may have a related BERG or parents’ group. Learn more.

Be the best parent you can be.

Care.com resources extend much further than child care. Connect with them to find after school activities, tutoring, test prep, and more.
