Make Child and Elder Day Care More Cost Effective with a WageWorks Dependent Day Care FSA
Families often need help with child and elder day care. A Dependent Day Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) lets you save on dependent day care expenses using pretax dollars. You can spend your dependent day care savings account funds on a wide range of care for eligible members of your family. Some of the expenses covered include senior day care, child day care, babysitting, before-and after-school programs and sick child care. Click here to see other expenses typically covered.*
