'GDC Kids' Childcare Sign-Ups Are Open for GDC 2025

Game developer parents and caretakers: Are you planning on joining us at GDC 2025 but unsure what to do with the little ones? Bring them to our onsite "GDC Kids" childcare! 

Registration is open for our onsite childcare service through KiddieCorp, accepting children ages 6 months through 12 years old. It's availalbe March 17-21, 2025, and costs $12 per hour per child (with a minimum of two hours each day).

Sign Up Your Little Ones for GDC Kids!

GDC does not allow children in the exhibit hall, conference sessions, or lobby spaces. So instead, picture this: You're checking out all the sessions, panels, and Expo booths—or maybe even hosting your own talk—while your kids are having the time of their lives just a stone's throw away.

With almost 40 years of experience, KiddieCorp's team of childcare experts is there to make sure attendees' children have a fun, educational, and safe experience. Their staff-to-child ratios are high to ensure every child feels special: For babies ages 6-11 months, it's one staff member per two kids, and the number adjusts as the kids get older.

Here are the hours GDC Kids childcare will be available: 

March 17th: 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

March 18th: 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

March 19th: 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

March 20th: 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

March 21st: 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

 
In addition to their selective and competitive hiring process, KiddieCorp remains at the top of the industry by carrying ample liability insurance. Information on KiddieCorp's health policies and safety plans are available on their registration page

Spots for this childcare service are limited and it's first-come, first-served, so don't wait too long to sign up. You can find all the info you need to get registered on their website. And if you've still got questions, no worries! The KiddieCorp team is just a phone call or email away. Give them a ring at (858) 455-1718 or shoot them an email at [email protected].

This is just one of the many ways GDC works to make the conference more accessible to our amazing community of game developers and industry professionals. We want everyone to have the chance to attend and share their brilliance. Of course, the only way to do that is to join us at GDC 2025!
