Same Day Service

For urgent, same-day requests such as emergency removals that require immediate and extended supervision Unyik Care is available to step in at a moment’s notice. Our sitters provide stability and attentive care that can extend for days, weeks, or even months, ensuring children have a safe, comforting presence during these critical times..

24/7 Weekend Support

When extended weekend coverage is needed, Unyik Care offers 24/7 supervision from Friday through Sunday (or longer if required). Our dedicated team works with hospital staff to ensure the child’s needs are met consistently, providing compassionate and attentive care for the entire duration.

Reserve A Sitter

For children with scheduled medical procedures, Unyik Care offers pre-arranged sitting services to ensure continuity and comfort throughout their hospital stay. Our sitters collaborate with medical professionals to support each child’s recovery process, providing peace of mind to DFPS staff, caseworkers, and families during these planned admissions.

The Unyik Way

At Unyik Care, we provide compassionate hospital sitting services designed for children in DFPS custody. We understand that a hospital stay can be daunting, and our mission is to ensure every child feels loved and supported during their time in care. Our dedicated team serves as both advocates for patients and reliable eyes and ears for caseworkers.

We take pride in providing a nurturing environment, ensuring that each child has clean sheets, fresh clothes, and the attention they need to feel comfortable and secure. We go the extra mile by sending pictures and regular updates to caseworkers, aiding in documentation and keeping everyone informed about the child’s well-being.

Our caregivers approach each child’s needs with the same love and care that a parent would provide. At Unyik Care, we’re here to add that loving touch, making a positive difference in the lives of the children we serve.
