Childcare
As always, CWIM Conference welcomes babes in arms to join us in the event. We will have a well-appointed nursing and pumping room for mothers of babies. For those looking for a break, or for those with toddlers and older children, we have exciting news!
New this year, we have partnered with Birdie Break, a Canadian, female-founded childcare company. For the duration of CWIM Conference 2025, Birdie Break is offering 20% off their services, to allow you to book Sitters to come to your hotel and care for your littles ones while in Calgary.
Birdie Break is an on-demand Babysitting service, offering highly-vetted Sitters through a convenient app platform. Founded in 2017, the company operates in 8 cities across Canada including: Calgary, Edmonton, Banff/Canmore, Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, Victoria and Kelowna. All Sitters go through a thorough 7-step due diligence and training process including background checks, identity verification and CPR/First aid training - they only bring on the best.
The Process:
- Visit the Birdie Break website, download the app, and sign up (2 min sign-up): www.birdiebreak.com. You can enter your home address for sign-up, however when you create the booking requests for the conference, there will be a place to enter the new address of where you will be staying. Sitters can be booked up to 2 months in advance and they also recommend at least 3-7 days advance for the greatest selection of Sitter availability.
- To redeem the 20% promo discount, enter the "case-sensitive" code each time you place a booking for a new date/time: 20DRBIRDIE
- The profiles of available and interested sitters will populate, then you can "confirm" the sitter who is the best fit for your family.
- All payment is conveniently made through the app, and a receipt will be emailed to you following each booking.
- After the event, you will then have an account to book Birdie Sitters at home or while travelling if you ever require their services again.
We are thrilled for this partnership with Birdie Break and hope that they can be a support to you and your family while you enjoy the conference.
