FAQs for finding a part time babysitter near you
What is a part-time babysitter?
Part-time babysitting is no different than normal babysitting, but it is different from a full-time nanny. You may only need to hire a part-time sitter for the occasional special occasion or for extra help everyday after school—your family’s babysitting needs are unique to you.
What is an occasional babysitter?
If someone doesn’t require full-time care, they can hire an occasional babysitter or a part-time babysitter. An occasional babysitter is a babysitter you only hire on an as-need basis. For example, if someone wants to hire a babysitter to watch their kids while they enjoy a date night or go to a doctor’s appointment they can. If you need a last-minute babysitter, an occasional babysitter can come in handy.
How do I find a part-time babysitter near me?
If you're looking for a part-time babysitter, you can use Care.com to find qualified part-time babysitters by searching through babysitter profiles to find a sitter who has the experience you’re looking for and who can help tackle the top babysitting duties on your list. You can also search by hourly rates that work for your budget and can read reviews from real families.
How much do part-time babysitters near me cost?
Part-time babysitter pay rates start at $19.39, but the exact cost of hiring a part-time babysitter can differ based on each babysitter’s unique qualifications.
What do part-time babysitters do?
Part-time babysitter duties vary greatly. Some babysitters will pick up the kids from school and help them with homework or tutor them in a specific subject. Other part-time babysitters can help with household chores like cooking, laundry, or light cleaning. You can search for a babysitter who feels comfortable taking on your desired tasks.
