What is a hospital daycare?

A hospital daycare is a specialized facility within a hospital that provides short-term care and supervision for children whose parents or guardians are hospital staff or patients. It offers a safe and nurturing environment where children can stay during the day while their caregivers attend to medical appointments, treatments, or work shifts. Hospital daycare centers are staffed by trained professionals who ensure the well-being, development, and safety of the children. These services help reduce stress for families and allow hospital staff to focus on their duties knowing their children are in good hands.

What are the typical responsibilities of a hospital daycare worker?

Staff in a hospital daycare setting are responsible for providing a safe, nurturing environment for children whose parents are hospital employees or patients. Daily tasks include planning and leading age-appropriate activities, monitoring children's health and behavior, maintaining cleanliness and hygiene, and communicating regularly with parents and healthcare professionals. Collaboration with other team members, such as nurses and early childhood educators, is common to ensure the well-being and development of each child.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a hospital daycare worker?

To thrive as a Hospital Daycare Worker, you need a background in childcare or early childhood education, often supported by certifications such as CPR and First Aid. Familiarity with health and safety protocols, child observation tools, and basic record-keeping systems is typically required. Strong communication, patience, and the ability to comfort and engage children are essential soft skills in this role. These skills ensure the safety, well-being, and developmental support of children in a healthcare environment, while also providing peace of mind to their families.

What is the difference between Hospital Daycare vs Pediatric Nurse?

AspectHospital DaycarePediatric Nurse
CredentialsMay require early childhood education or daycare certificationRN license, BSN or higher, pediatric specialization
Work EnvironmentChildcare setting within hospital, caring for sick or injured childrenHospital, clinics, providing medical care to children
Employer & IndustryHospitals, healthcare facilities with childcare servicesHospitals, healthcare organizations, pediatric departments

Hospital Daycare staff focus on providing childcare services within a hospital setting, often requiring early childhood education credentials. Pediatric Nurses are licensed medical professionals specializing in caring for sick children, with nursing credentials. While both work in healthcare environments serving children, their roles differ in scope, responsibilities, and required qualifications.

Job description

Dog Daycare Attendant - Part-Time

Do you thrive in high-energy environments? Love dogs — but also understand that safety comes first?

We’re looking for a Part-Time Dog Daycare Attendant to supervise group play sessions, manage pack dynamics, and ensure every dog has a safe, structured, and enriching daycare experience. This is an active, fast-paced role that requires focus, stamina, and confidence in a group dog setting.

Who We Are

NVA Pet Resorts is part of National Veterinary Associates (NVA) — the largest private owner of veterinary hospitals and pet resorts in North America, with 1,300+ locations. We’re proud to be in an $8B+ industry that continues to grow as pet parents seek premium, trusted care for their furry family members.

At NVA Pet Resorts, our mission is simple: create safe, fun, and loving environments for pets while providing exceptional experiences for our clients and team members

What You’ll Do

As a Daycare Attendant, you are responsible for the safety and structure of the pack.

Your day will include:

  • Supervising group play sessions with multiple dogs
  • Monitoring body language and preventing conflicts

  • Separating dogs when needed
  • Walking dogs to and from play areas
  • Cleaning and sanitizing play yards throughout your shift
  • Monitoring health and reporting any concerns immediately
  • Documenting playgroup notes and behavior observations
  • Communicating updates to leadership and occasionally to pet parents
  • You will be on your feet most of the day, moving quickly, and staying alert.
  • Yes — you will clean messes. Yes — you’ll get dirty. Yes — it can be loud and busy.
  • And yes — it’s incredibly rewarding when done well.

What We’re Looking For

  • We’re seeking someone who is:
  • Confident supervising groups of dogs
  • Knowledgeable (or willing to learn) about dog behavior and pack dynamics
  • Calm, assertive, and safety-focused
  • Physically active and comfortable standing for long periods
  • Detail-oriented with strong observation skills
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Team-oriented with a positive attitude

You must be able to:

  • Lift up to 60 lbs
  • Handle dogs of all sizes safely
  • Work indoors and outdoors in various temperatures
  • Work weekends and holidays
  • Stay focused in a noisy, fast-moving environment

Work Schedule

  • Monday–Friday shifts
  • Weekend availability required
  • Holiday availability required
