For families

How it works

  1. Find a babysitter near you

    Search your suburb on the map or as a list. Every profile shows their rate and when they're free, along with any reviews from families. You don't need an account to look.

    A map in the app with pins for babysitters nearby, and one suburb's babysitters in a sheet pulled half way up.

  2. Message the ones you like

    Ask about a Saturday night, a regular weekday or meeting first. They can send you their resume and references in the chat.

    A conversation in the app where a babysitter shares a resume and a list of references with a parent.

  3. Arrange it between you

    You agree the rate, the hours and how you'll pay them directly. We don't handle the money and we never take a cut.

    A babysitter's profile in the app, with an intro video, an hourly rate and a button to send a message.

Step 1 of 3

The badge means we checked their ID and their WWCC ourselves, with the register in the state that issued it, not that they ticked a box. What we check, and what we don’t
