ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS
If you find the perfect job and can’t wait for the family to get in touch, however, a Premium subscription will allow you to start your own conversations and access other exclusive features:
1 month Premium membership: $19
3 months Premium membership: $39 ($13 monthly)
Please note, Premium subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle. You can cancel your membership anytime without losing your account.
Keep in mind that it’s normal to ask for a little extra pay if you consent to extra tasks – like picking up the kids or doing certain chores around the house – but be sure to lay out clear expectations in advance. Then, do your best to agree on an hourly rate that is fair for everyone involved.
To kick off your babysitting career, ask family members about watching your younger siblings, cousins, or nieces and nephews – or check in with your neighbours about babysitting the kids next door. This way, you can gain some firsthand experience and improve your chances of finding a great job as a babysitter or nanny!
Keep in mind that you are 5 times more likely to be hired by a family when you have a professional profile picture. So put your best foot forward by uploading an up-to-date headshot or portrait that follows our photo guidelines: neutral background, no filters, nice and centered.
Download the Sitly app so you can reply right away to interested families. If you don’t want to wait for parents to get in touch, consider upgrading to a Premium membership so you can send the first message as soon as new jobs get posted.
Review our 10-Step Guide for Babysitters for a list of common interview questions so you can rehearse your answers beforehand. When it’s time for your interview with the family, remember to be punctual, polite, and professional so clients can see how serious you are about being a sitter.
