Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our services, caregivers, and how to get started.
What services does LRS Childcare Services provide?
LRS offers personalized, in-home support including developmental support, respite care, overnight supervision, and extended or 24-hour care. Each placement is thoughtfully tailored to your family’s routines and preferences, with a strong emphasis on consistency, discretion, and long-term caregiver relationships.
What is respite care?
Respite care provides families with the space to rest, recharge, or attend to other responsibilities while knowing their child is supported by someone they trust. At LRS, respite care is delivered with the same continuity and attentiveness as ongoing support, ensuring your child remains comfortable and familiar with their caregiver.
How are caregivers selected?
Caregivers are carefully chosen for both their professional qualifications and their ability to integrate seamlessly into a family’s home. We take a highly selective approach, focusing on thoughtful matching so that each caregiver aligns not only with the child’s needs, but with the family’s values, routines, and communication style.
Will the same caregiver work with my child?
Yes. Continuity is a central part of our model. We prioritize long-term placements so caregivers can build meaningful, trusted relationships with the families they support.
How does support begin?
Support begins with a private consultation where we take the time to understand your family’s needs, routines, and preferences in detail. From there, we carefully match a caregiver and introduce support gradually, ensuring a smooth and comfortable transition.
Is support always provided by the same person?
Whenever possible, yes. In cases requiring extended coverage, we introduce a small, consistent team rather than rotating caregivers, ensuring familiarity and stability are maintained at all times.
Can support be arranged overnight?
Yes. Overnight support is provided in a calm, structured manner that prioritizes safety while maintaining your child’s established nighttime routines.
Do you provide extended or 24-hour care?
Yes. For families requiring continuous support, LRS coordinates care through a carefully selected, consistent team to ensure seamless coverage without compromising familiarity or trust.
Where are services provided?
Services are primarily provided within your home, where your child is most comfortable. Support may also extend to outings, appointments, and travel when appropriate.
How do I request services?
You may request services by contacting us directly through our website, email, or phone. We will arrange a consultation to understand your needs and begin the process of thoughtfully matching your family with the right caregiver.
