Now piloting in Boise and surrounding areas

Show up. We'll watch the kids.

Playdate brings a background-checked caregiver into the restaurant, shop, or event you're already at, so your family can stay for the whole visit.

How It Works

One profile. Every partner venue.

Set up your family's profile once. From then on, booking a caregiver at any partner venue takes seconds.

1Step 1

Set up your profile

Your child's info, any allergies or notes, and a payment method: done once, used everywhere.

2Step 2

Book a session

At check-in or ahead of time, a caregiver is scheduled for however long you're staying.

3Step 3

Check in anytime

Sessions happen on-site, so you can check on your child in person anytime. Live camera check-ins are coming soon, depending on the venue.

4Step 4

Rate your caregiver

Your rating after the session feeds into who grows into Mentor tier.

Trust & Safety

Built for parents who don't take chances.

Every session, every caregiver, every time: no exceptions.

Full background checks

Every caregiver clears a registry & background check before their first session: no exceptions.

Camera monitoring: coming soon

Live camera monitoring is an optional feature we're building for parents who want to check in during a session, and availability will depend on the venue. It isn't part of the Boise pilot yet. Every caregiver still clears a background check and CPR/First-Aid certification before their first session.

CPR & First-Aid certified

Every caregiver is certified before day one, with ongoing training for Mentor tier.

Small, consistent ratios

We hold caregivers to 1 caregiver per 4-6 kids (at or stricter than state minimums, by choice).

What You Get

The same standard, at every venue.

One profile works everywhere Playdate operates. Every session meets the same bar, wherever you are.
