Casual babysitting FAQs

How much notice do you need?

The more notice you can give, the better — it helps us match you with your ideal carer. Please note we're not able to take last-minute bookings at the moment, so do get in touch ahead of time.

Can we have the same sitter each time?

Yes — for regular bookings we keep the same trusted carer wherever possible, so your children see a familiar face every time.

What ages do you care for?

From newborns to school-aged children. Just let us know your children's ages and we'll match a carer with the right experience.

What areas do you cover?

Right across Perth and wider WA. If you're unsure whether we reach your suburb, reach out and we'll let you know.

How much does babysitting cost?

Casual babysitting starts from $32/hour, depending on the day, time and number of children. We'll confirm your exact rate when you enquire — no hidden fees or surprises.

Is there a minimum booking?

Casual bookings have a two-hour minimum. Regular, ongoing bookings can be arranged to suit your routine.

What should I have ready for the sitter?

Just the essentials — any meals or snacks, bedtime routine notes and emergency contacts. Before your first booking we send a simple welcome checklist so your carer has everything they need.

Are your carers first aid trained and insured?

Yes. Every carer is First Aid certified, holds a current Working with Children Check and police clearance, and is personally interviewed before joining our team.

Can I meet the sitter beforehand?

For casual babysitting we don't offer in-person meet-and-greets before a booking, but we send detailed information about your matched carer ahead of time so you know exactly who's coming.

What if I need to cancel or change a booking?

We just ask for reasonable notice so we can let your carer know. Full cancellation details are shared with your booking confirmation.
