Family and locally owned Playcare Inc offers superb educational opportunities for families in corporate settings.
Corporate Services
Your business relies on people. Happy people do a better job. We can help you make your employees and their families happy by developing high-quality, fun, safe and educational childcare options that meet their scheduling needs.
Beginning with a needs assessment, we will work closely with you to develop a program for your employee parents, including:
- Childcare tuition discounts
- Subsidy management programs
- Guaranteed or priority access
- Back-up care
- Summer programs
- After-school programs
- Non-traditional care programs
At every Playcare location, we guarantee our experienced teachers and staff provide a warm, nurturing environment where your children can participate in safe, fun developmentally appropriate activities. This gives your employees peace of mind, so they can focus on business.
Priority Access
As a corporate partner, your employees will be given priority access, will move to the front of any waiting list and have first choice of any spaces available in any Playcare center. The enrollment fee will be waived for all of your employees.
Guaranteed Access
Your company may purchase slots at 20% off the posted price. This will ensure that there is space available for your employees with no wait, no hassle and no problem. The state of Oklahoma has a licensed capacity rule and we can never have more children in the building than our licensed capacity.
Each child occupies a slot. You would be ensuring that we would have slots available for your employees for the days and times you specify. This would be especially helpful for insurance that a slot would be available for back-up care or on Saturdays when other child care options might not be available.
Backup Care
Your company employees would be eligible for a 10% discount, but they must call ahead to ensure that there are slots available. Of course, we would give them priority access and move them to the front of the waiting list, but no assurance can be made that there would be space at that time.
School-Age Care
Playcare offers before and after-school care in Lawton and Cache with bus transportation by area public schools. Smart Start #6, Smart Start #5 and Smart Start #2 are open 5 am to 6:30 pm.
Smart Start #1 located in Cache is open from 6 am to 6 pm. Full-day summer camp is available for school-age children at all four locations Monday through Friday. Care is also available all day on days out of school. All meals are provided at no extra charge.
Extended Hours
Playcare is responsive to the needs of the companies we partner with. Currently, some Smart Start’s open at 5:00 am, but the general rule is centers are open 6 am to 6 pm Monday through Friday for children 6 weeks to 12 years old. If your needs assessment signifies a need for more hours or Sunday care, Playcare is willing to work with you to meet these needs.
Special Event Care
Childcare can be offered during conventions, conferences, parties and other special events, providing a convenient alternative for participating families who require care during such events.
Tuition Care
Your company employees would be eligible for a 10% discount off our posted price for a full-time program. If more than 10 families from your company enroll in a program they will receive a 15% discount off our posted full and part-time programs, plus the $5 discount for paying on Monday for the week to follow.
If your company agrees to corporate pay or payroll deduct, you will be entitled to a 20% discount on a full-time program.
Subsidy Management
This program combines a childcare tuition discount provided by Playcare with a subsidy provided by employers, thus further reducing the cost of childcare for your employees. Subsidies can improve the consistency and quality of care children receive by enabling parents to afford stable and higher quality childcare arrangements.
