For many working parents, finding child care that fits their schedule can be challenging. Standard daycare hours may not accommodate early shifts, late meetings, or long commutes. That is why extended hours daycare is essential for modern families. At Hooyo Child Care Center in Minneapolis, we provide extended hours care designed to give parents the flexibility they need and children the nurturing care they deserve.
Families have diverse work schedules. Some parents work early mornings, others late evenings. Healthcare workers, first responders, and shift employees often struggle to find child care that aligns with their non-traditional hours. Extended hours daycare offers:
- Greater flexibility for working parents
- Reduced stress and better work-life balance
- Consistent care and routines for children
- Reliable coverage for early drop-offs and late pickups
At Hooyo Child Care Center, we open at 6 AM and close at 8 PM, Monday through Friday, to meet the needs of busy Minneapolis families.
Benefits for Children
Extended hours care does not mean extended screen time or passive supervision. At Hooyo, children enjoy a full day of structured activities, play-based learning, and social interaction throughout their stay.
Our extended care includes:
- Enriching educational activities
- Nutritious meals and snacks served family-style
- Rest periods tailored to each child's needs
- Outdoor playtime and movement activities
- Consistent caregivers who provide emotional security
