Solutions for Your Entire Family
Through support from the Student Services Fee Committee, the Bright Horizons Back-Up Care benefit was extended to UCSF students in July 2020. The program offers high-quality back-up care when you need to be at school or work and your regular child or adult/elder care is unavailable. All UCSF students subject to the Student Services Fee are eligible for the Back-up Care Program. Students have zero co-pays.
For more program details, see below or call 877-BH-Cares (877-242-2737). Have other questions? Contact myfamily@ucsf.edu.
(UCSF has a separate Back-Up Care Program for GME-appointed residents and clinical fellows, in addition to certain faculty categories.)
Program Updates:
• You may now reserve care up to 180 days in advance (as opposed to 90 days in advance).
• Learn about student Back-Up Care and taxes.
• Do you usually request a COVID-vaccinated caregiver for in-home back-up care? There are new instructions (look under FAQs) for such requests starting May 11, 2023.
