I can't recommend Meabh enough, best nanny we ever had! Meabh was really great with my kids. She's calm, kind and gentle and really patient but she's also a lot of fun. My children love the outdoors and Meabh is really happy to play outside with the children, they went to parks, the zoo, swimming and dance. They were always busy. She really thought about their interests and encouraged them. She was also very motherly and gave lots of cuddles. I knew they were safe when they were with her and she was easy going and a great communicator with the adults of the family as well. Meabh is great at art , telling stories and making things so the children really learnt alot of creative things with her. She was happy to work flexible hours and could put the kids to bed or get them up and dressed in the morning and prepared simple meals for them . Meabh is good with children of all ages my 3 were 10, 6 and 4, she's from a big family herself so it's second nature. My children still miss her!

Before you start your search, take a moment to figure out what you need. Full-time support? Part-time care? On-call help? Make a wish list of necessary and preferred characteristics so you can apply the right filters to our search tool.

We'll show you a list of available sitters near you. From there, it's up to you to screen and vet promising candidates, ask for references, organize a personal interview to see if you're a good fit, and get to know them a little. Since sitters write their own profiles, we don't independently verify things like qualifications or certificates, so it's worth confirming those yourself.

First things first – message the prospective babysitter or nanny about any past childcare experience they may have, and ask about references from prior families. Then you can check in with the other parents to see what their impression was of the sitter.

Next, come up with a list of questions that will help you determine if the sitter will be a good match for your family’s needs. Review our 10-Step Guide for Parents for examples of questions to ask candidates during a babysitting interview. Finally, when you’re ready, schedule a convenient time to get together in person for a one-on-one.

First, you should make sure to comply with the minimum wage or hourly rate, established by law. Additionally, each babysitter’s rate is determined by several factors – including their level of experience, the number of kids who need looking after, and how far they need to travel for the job.

In order to come up with an appropriate rate, you should first take into account the minimum wage for your area. Then, you might consider offering a higher rate of pay to keep things fair if you’re asking for any help with things like tutoring or chores around the house – or if you know your kids can be a handful for even the most patient of sitters!

Sitly lets you expand your sitter search to find independent childcare solutions in your neighbourhood – including babysitters, nannies, and home daycare providers. But given all these options, choosing the right solution for your family’s needs requires weighing the pros and cons carefully.

Keep in mind that nannies often work a set schedule and provide dependable assistance with more demanding tasks – while babysitters are typically scheduled as needed, and focus their energy on keeping kids safely entertained. A home daycare centre might give you the best of both worlds, but you’ll need to pay extra attention to other important factors like location, flexibility, and cost.

Sitly isn’t a babysitting agency. We don’t employ sitters, and we do not run background checks on the people who join. Think of Sitly as a neighbourhood hub where families and independent childcare providers find each other. Open access is what keeps the search fast and flexible for everyone.

That means the final judgement is yours. We give you tools to help you make it:

- New members verify their email address when they sign up
- We offer optional ID verification, so members can confirm they are who they say they are
- Sitters can add a background check certificate to their profile themselves, and you can ask to see it in person
- We provide reviews from other families
- Our team performs manual reviews when something is reported or flagged

None of this replaces your own judgement. Ask your potential babysitter about past experience, speak to families they’ve worked for, and always hold an interview in person before you decide.
