Bright Horizons Back-Up Care
Bright Horizons Back-Up Care
Bright Horizons offers center-based and in-home back-up care for children, adult dependents and elders when your regular caregiver is unavailable, your child’s regular school is closed, or you are transitioning between care arrangements for your adult/ elder relative.
You can also use your back-up care benefit to reserve an experienced, virtual tutor to help your 5-18-year-old stay on track – whether during the school year or over summer break.
Employees are eligible for 20 days of back-up care per dependent, per calendar year.
To enroll, go to my.brighthorizons.com (Employer: Paul Hastings; Employee #). Care options and costs are as follows:
Care Type
Copay
Center-based care
$15 per child, or $25 maximum per family
In-home care
$24 per day (any age)
Virtual tutoring
Each back-up case use can be exchanged for 4 hours of virtual tutoring
The value of this benefit will be reported on your W-2 and may have tax consequences. IRS rules only allow $5,000 in dependent care expenses to be set aside pre-tax. This includes both DCAP and other employer-provided care, including back-up care.
