Where you work
Boise restaurants, shops, and events already partnered with Playdate. The venue provides the space; Playdate provides the setup.
Shifts you choose
Open shifts post inside the app. Claim what fits your schedule: there's no minimum and no fixed roster.
Your first shift
A short orientation, then you're paired with a venue for a normal shift: check in, watch the kids on your roster, check out.
What it takes to claim a shift.
Every caregiver clears the same bar before their first session: no exceptions.
Background check & registry clearance
A full background and child-protection registry check, completed before your first shift.
CPR & First-Aid certification
Required before day one. Don't have one yet? We'll point you to a class before your start date.
Small, consistent ratios
You're never watching more than 4-6 kids at a time (at or stricter than Idaho's state minimum, by choice).
Grow into Mentor tier
Top-rated, experienced caregivers unlock higher pay and lead-shift status.
