The Most Genius Sick Kid Hack You’ll Ever Find

Thank you to Vitable for sponsoring this post so I could share their boss service, the most genius sick kid hack ever, with all of you. All opinions are 100% my own.

There are few things worse in mom life than a sick kiddo. Seeing them miserable is tough, and logistically, it derails your whole day! For me, one of the most inconvenient parts of having sick children is carting our whole circus show into the doctor’s office to sort diagnosis and treatment–such a pain! So when Vitable reached out to tell me about their truly genius solution (the best sick kid hack you’ll ever find, mama!), I was so eager to share it with you. Are you ready to make your life easier, friends? Read on for the sweet scoop!

What is Vitable?

Vitable is an on-demand urgent care service in the Greater Philadelphia area. Their nurse practitioners come to your home when you or your children need to see a medical professional, and are available to treat a wide range of non-emergency conditions on adults and children ages 18 months and older. They evaluate your symptoms, come up with a treatment plan, and are also able to write prescriptions when medically appropriate.

The cost? Only $79. Flat fee, no hidden costs.

(truth told: this is only a few dollars more than the current $75 urgent care fee I have heard many of my friends must pay via their insurance)

Intrigued? Be prepared to be even more sold on the genius of Vitable…

5 Reasons Vitable is the The Most Genius Sick Kid Hack You’ll Ever Find

1. First, the obvious…YOU DON’T HAVE TO LEAVE YOUR HOUSE. You moms get this–packing up a sick kiddo along with the rest of your family is no fun at all. Not to mention hugely inconvenient. Getting the profession to come to you? Awesome.
2. You don’t need to expose your kiddos to other germs. A friend’s daughter had throat pain, which turned out to only be teeth-coming-in pain, but she was super bummed to have carted all of her kiddos to an urgent care to have discovered this…while exposing them to a plethora sick germs in the process.
3. Cut out the painful wait room time. Trying to keep kiddos occupied while waiting–much worse sick kids!–is so hard! How much easier to cozy everyone in on the couch and wait for help to come to you…
4. Sick yourself, mama? Last month, my health took a hard hit with a nasty sinus infection, but my husband was (in)conveniently traveling. Summoning strength to get myself to the doc, moreover my children too, was not on the table. Queue Vitable…let the smart doctoring come to YOU!
5. A shout-out to busy schedules…This will make sense to all my fellow mamas–life is crazy busy! Sometimes you aren’t sure if a seeming symptom is legit or not…and the prospect of gathering up yourself and the kiddos and disrupting the day’s plan to head to the doctor feels more than daunting. Having a nurse practitioner come to your house to check out the uncertain symptom(s) is so far, far more convenient.

Sold yet? I know, mamas! Vitable offers such a cool, easy, genius sick kid hack, you’ll never look back.
