<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">The goal of this benefit is to create a safety net for students with families for times when they need short-term childcare, be it for academic duties or
for having a chance to take a break. We hope that this benefit will make it easy for parents to get access to reliable, high quality childcare and remove some of the burden of having to go through a long process of finding a good babysitter. Hopefully, it
will help many families achieve a better work-life balance, and reduce some of the stress and anxiety related to balancing work duties with the responsibilities of being a parent.
