A Yahoo spokesperson tells Business Insider the company offers priority access to open slots at Children's Creative Learning Center in Sunnyvale, California, and a free premium Care.com membership to help employees find babysitters and nannies.
According to a Microsoft spokesperson, the company offers two programs to help employees pay for child care: one that offers employee discounts at many daycares across the country and another that subsidizes child care with several national child care providers.
Microsoft also offers subsidized back-up care for children, adults, and elders when there is an unexpected disruption in regular care and employees need to work.
With so many new children joining the Google family each year, a spokesperson says the company offers other caregiving benefits including one-on-one consultations to help parents in their child care search, discounts for nanny placement agencies, five free back-up child care days, priority access at Bright Horizons child care centers, and free premium membership to Care.com.
Other companies like Facebook and Intel also subsidize daycare costs.
