The AAD will partner with KiddieCorp to offer on-site childcare services to Innovation Academy attendees. While parents attend education sessions, events, and exhibits, children ages six months to 12 years can engage in their own learning in a fun and safe environment.

The Academy has subsidized the cost of the service to help attendees — and their little ones — make the most of the meeting. The fee is $20 per hour per child and includes meals, snacks, and age-appropriate activities. Advance registration is requested to ensure adequate staffing and resources.

Childcare is located at the New York Hilton Midtown and will operate the following hours:

  • Thursday, July 16, 12:30–8 p.m. EDT
  • Friday, July 17, 7 a.m.–6 p.m. EDT
  • Saturday, July 18, 7 a.m.–6 p.m. EDT
  • Sunday, July 19, 7 a.m.–1 p.m. EDT

KiddieCorp provides trained supervisors and staff, who maintain the recommended staff to children ratios:

  • 1:2 for children six to 11 months old
  • 1:3 for children one to two years old
  • 1:5 for children three to five years old
  • 1:7 for children six to 12 years old
