What is Beloved?

Beloved is a place where parents connect with stay-at-home parents for group childcare. This saves parents up to 49% on childcare while caregivers can make up to *$64 per hour hosting a small group of kids.

*The amount varies based on the market rate value for child care in your city. It can also vary according to the amenities, benefits and services being provided by the host.

How long can I get a paid leave?

3 months, 12 months or even 24 months. Totally up to you!

[1] According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the benefits of paid leave are well established. Providing new parents with paid time off to care for newborns or recently adopted children contributes to the children’s healthy development, improves maternal health, supports fathers’ involvement in care, and enhances families’ economic security.

How do I qualify for a paid leave?

You can qualify by being open to hosting your neighbor's kids while taking care of your child. You decide how many kids to host and you can take your time until you feel comfortable caring for more - up to 5 preschool-age kids. We also require that you take a free background check using Better Future to help ensure the safety of your community.

Not only are you saving money having quality time with your child , but you are also helping more families get access to affordable child care.

How much income can I make as a host?

A host can make up to *$66,400 per year working part-time hours.

*The amount varies based on the market rate value for child care in your city. It can also vary according to the amenities, benefits and services being provided by the host.

Can I do this full time?

We highly recommend hosting full time to individuals with backgrounds in early childhood education,  teachers, and healthcare professionals.

If becoming a full-time host continues to interest you, we'll help you every step of the way.

Is this a legal childcare arrangement?

In the state of Washington, RCW 43.216.010(2)(a)-(m) clarifies programs which are exempt from licensing.

(e): Nursery schools that are engaged primarily in early childhood education with preschool age children (ages 30 months to 5 years) and in which no child is enrolled on a regular basis for more than four hours per day.

(g): Seasonal camps for three months’ or less duration engaged primarily in recreational or educational activities.
