Verified babysitters in your suburb
Browse real local profiles free. Message directly. Sitters keep 100% of what they earn.
How it works
1. Browse without an account
Every profile is public — rates, availability, what they're comfortable with. No signup to look, no unlocking, no credit card.
2. Message the sitters you like
An account takes an email address and a magic link. That is the only thing behind a sign-in on this site.
3. Arrange everything directly
Rate, hours, and payment are between you and the sitter. We never handle the money and we never take a cut.
The badge means we checked their ID and their WWCC with the NSW Children's Guardian ourselves — not that they ticked a box. What we check, and what we don’t

For sitters
Listing takes about three minutes and no documents. Parents message you here; everything after that is between the two of you.
Free to list, free to stay
No membership, no listing fee, no commission. We have never taken a cent out of a sitter’s pay and the model doesn’t depend on it.
You keep 100% of what you earn
Families pay you directly, at the rate you agreed. We are not in the middle of that.
The badge is optional, and it works
Get your ID and WWCC checked by us and you rank above unverified profiles. It’s free and takes about five minutes.
50 founding places left
The first 50 sitters to list keep founding status permanently: free forever, a founding mark on the profile, and top placement in their suburb. 0 places are taken.
