Annie’s Place Back-up Weekend Care for Hospital Employees
Backup weekend childcare for all hospital employees of Parkland and Children’s Health.
Annie’s Place Back-up Weekend Care is open to all hospital employees who have shifts scheduled on Saturdays and/or Sundays. Back-up care is defined as help with short-term care when regular care isn’t available. Examples include:
· Change in work schedules
· School/Daycare closures and holidays
· Primary care provider illness/vacation (i.e., nanny, grandparent, etc.)
Annie’s Place at Parkland is located at 2131 Butler Street, Dallas, TX 75235.
Annie's Place's Hours of Operation are from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM. Early Bird hours begin at 6:30 AM and After Care, hours go until 7:30 PM. Early and late hours are reserved for employees whose work is scheduled outside regular operating hours.
· Currently, Annie’s Place does not accept walk-ins, so we strongly encourage you to fill out the enrollment form ahead of time and not wait until you need backup care.
· Enrollments are good for one year of service.
· If you have any questions, please call 469-235-0092 or email at welcomedesk@anniesplacecares.org
Once you fill out the registration form, a member of our staff will be in touch by phone to complete the process. Please allow 1-2 days for the process to be complete.
To make a childcare reservation at Annie’s Place Parkland:
· Only families that have enrolled in the Weekend Care program will be able to reserve a childcare spot and receive the link to sign up.
· Reservations are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. The reservation link will open at 7:00 AM on the Monday before each weekend. Each hospital has a set number of childcare spots available.
· Making a reservation is not a guarantee of a spot. You must receive a confirmation with your child’s schedule.
· If spots fill up for the weekend, you will be put on a waitlist. Spots that are not reserved by Thursday will open to anyone on the waitlist and confirmations will go out Thursday afternoons.
Children must be well and fever-free and not in isolation/quarantine per current CDC guidelines on the day of the childcare appointment, and household members must not be COVID-19 positive or symptomatic. For a copy of our parent handbook and more information visit our Annie’s Place Parkland page.
