Employees who are eligible for back-up child care may exchange their back-up care days for tutoring (1 use day is equal to 4 hours of virtual tutoring) or effective March 1, 2024, for in-person tutoring (1 use day is equal to 3 hours of in-person tutoring) for children ages 5 to 18 years.

You can arrange one-on-one personalized tutoring support for your child or teenager up to age 18, using your Back-Up Care benefit and get support from professionals in over 3,000 subject areas, with targeted support in math and reading. You will be connected with an experienced tutor who can support your child's specific learning goals.

Once you register your child on the Back-Up Care site and request tutoring, you work with a tutoring professional to break your hours into individual sessions that meet your needs. You must use the tutoring hours within 90 days of placing the tutoring request. You will also be responsible for a copay — equal to the copay for center-based Back-Up Care.
