Babysitting in Penrith

How much do babysitters charge in Penrith?
Babysitters near Penrith are asking between $19 and $50 an hour, across 6 profiles that state a rate. What sits where in that range depends on how many children, their ages, and whether the job is supervision or a full bedtime routine. Agree the rate before the first booking. We never take a cut, so what you agree is what the babysitter is paid. What moves a babysitting rate.
Can I find a nanny in Penrith too?
6 of the 8 babysitters and nannies near Penrith say they want regular ongoing work. Most people use the two words for the same person, so the two lists overlap. The difference that matters is the shape of the arrangement, not the job title. A nanny needs a Working With Children Check and you are the one expected to verify it, which is not true of a casual babysitter. Nannies in Penrith lists the ones who said yes. Where the line falls in NSW.
Is a nanny cheaper than childcare in Penrith?
For one child, almost never. Centre-based day care in NSW averaged $14.75 an hour in the March quarter of 2026 before the Child Care Subsidy, while a nanny you hire privately is paid in full and charges for the household rather than per child. The picture changes with more children: at two or three children the nanny rate does not move, so it pulls level or ahead before the subsidy, and where it lands after depends on your own subsidy rate, and on the hourly cap, which that average already exceeded. How much a nanny costs in Sydney, and what sits on top of the rate.
Do babysitters in NSW need a Working With Children Check?
Not always. Under NSW rules a privately arranged babysitter working in your own home is not legally required to hold a Working With Children Check. Nannies, au pairs, and tutors are, and you as the parent are the one expected to verify it. You can ask any babysitter for their WWC number, family name, and date of birth and check it yourself for free. It takes about two minutes. Where the line falls and how to run the check.
What does the verified badge on a Penrith profile mean?
The badge means we checked their ID and their WWCC with the NSW Children's Guardian ourselves, not that they ticked a box.We do not check references, first aid certificates, or years of experience. Those sit on a profile as the babysitter’s own claim, and are labelled that way. The full list of what we check. The questions to ask a babysitter cover the rest.
How do I contact a babysitter in Penrith?
Browsing is open to everyone: every profile, rate, and availability grid is public with no account. To send a message you sign in with your email address. You arrange the booking, the rate, and payment directly with the babysitter — we are an introduction service and we are not part of that arrangement. How to find a babysitter in Sydney is the longer version.
Is it free?
Yes, for everyone. Every profile is public with no account, and messaging needs only an email sign-in. Babysitters stay free permanently: we do not charge a listing fee or a membership, and we take no commission on what they earn. Why the site is free.
