Based in Alberta and proudly serving communities across the province, we specialize in providing on‑site, professional childcare so families can fully participate in weddings, conferences, galas, markets, private gatherings, trade shows, and more

Our Story

“When my son was 5 months old, I started attending a series of inspiring events. I had no clue where to find childcare so I brought my son with me. At first, it was cute and he got admiring smiles but once he started walking and in no time running, him being there became disruptive. Eventually (and understandably), the organisers sent me an email stating that I could no longer bring my son but I could get complimentary tickets to the next few events. This is one of many situations that inspired my business partner Nathoya and I to start Care in a Pinch".
