Early morning child care is a form of child care that exists to help parents out early in the morning. Some parents have to go to work very early and may need someone to help keep an eye on their kids, get them ready for school, and make sure they get to school on time. This is where early morning child care can really come in handy.
There is no one standard time that daycares open, but most open before typical business hours begin (9 AM) to give parents time to get to work after dropping their children off. That being said, if someone has to be at work very early, they may need to hire early morning child care to fill in the gap before their daycare center opens.
If you need early morning child care, Care.com can help you find the right fit. You can check out the profiles of early morning child care providers near you who have the experience you’re looking for and who can meet the unique needs of your family. For example, if you need someone to drive your kids to school, you’ll need to hire an early morning child care provider who has a valid driver's license and who feels comfortable tackling transportation duties.
The average hourly rate for early morning child care services on Care.com as of November, 2025 is $20.29 per hour. This rate can differ due to your location, how much experience the early morning child care provider has and how many children you have.
To safely hire early morning child care, we strongly recommend you do your own due diligence (you can also look for caregivers who have a badge on their profile that indicates that they completed an annual background check called a CareCheck). Steps you can take to help ensure safety include running your own private background check, interviewing multiple different candidates, and requesting references.
