Knowing that many moms would appreciate some time to themselves on occasion and rarely get it, [Kraft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kraft-mac-cheese-college-care-pack) is inviting mothers to spend their Mother’s Day Away by giving them the chance to have their babysitting fees covered. Kraft notes a recent article from Care.com that recognizes that one of the things moms want most for Mother’s Day is to be able to enjoy some alone time. With this in mind, Kraft is giving moms the chance to make the most of the day however they please.

With Mother’s Day Away, moms in the United States are able to have Kraft reimburse them for the cost of babysitting fees—a maximum of $100 can be claimed per person or household, up to $50,000 in offers.
