ESMO Congress 2024: Childcare Service

Childcare Service at ESMO 2024: Attend sessions knowing your child is having fun and nearby!

The ESMO Young Oncologists Committee (YOC) and the ESMO Women for Oncology Committee (W4O) know that focusing on the Congress can be challenging for families and are therefore delighted to offer a Childcare Service to all registered participants as a membership benefit.

Partnering once again with Nipperbout, the UKs and Europe’s leading event childcare company, participants can focus on the congress programme knowing that their children are nearby, entertained and in safe hands.

Nipperbout will provide a wide variety of age-appropriate activities for children up to the age of 12.
