Where to find trustworthy Babysitting jobs


You’ve decided you need a babysitter.

The very first step you need to take when hiring your babysitter, is deciding what type of care you and your family need. This includes the responsibilities you want your babysitter to have, your personal schedule, and why you need a babysitter to provide extra care for your children.

A babysitter is someone who is paid to supervise and care for your children when you’re away, usually for short-periods of time, usually paid by the hour. For example, a babysitter can be hired for the few hours after school you have to work late, or a few hours on a weekend night if you have prior social commitments.


A babysitters main duties include:


Supervising the children


  • Feeding children
  • Playing with the children
  • Putting the children to bed

Of course, a babysitter is not confined to these responsibilities only, but it’s up to you, the parent and the employer, to make sure your needs and expectations are discussed prior to hiring a babysitter.

Babysitters are usually younger adults who may have other commitments like school, university or other jobs, which is why they are hired for short-term care for children.

If you need child caring services for longer periods of time, on a more consistent basis, you might need to consider hiring a nanny. Nannies provide more than just child supervision, and they can be hired on a part of nanny basis, a full-time nanny basis or as a live in Nannies Melbourne 

If you think you may require some nanny services instead of a babysitter, read this post for more information.
