Teena G was absolutely wonderful with our children. She is kind, attentive, and very patient. From the moment she arrived, she created a calm and friendly environment. She engaged the kids in fun and educational activities and handled everything with confidence and care. Teena is very trustworthy and communicates clearly, keeping us informed throughout. We felt completely comfortable leaving our children in her care. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to other families.

Chloe is an absolute gem! She recently cared for our 18-month-old, and we couldn’t be happier. Our daughter immediately warmed up to her making the handover easy. Chloe was patient and attentive and kept us up to date throughout the evening. We highly recommend Chloe to any parents looking for a childminder

A babysitter in Dublin charges an average of €12.36 per hour.
This rate is based on what local babysitters in Dublin have listed in their profiles.

Hourly rates can vary from one sitter to another. Things like age, experience, and any extra tasks they’re happy to help with like cooking, homework, or light housework, can all play a role.

On average, a babysitter in Dublin has 1.97 years of experience.

We do not perform background checks or screen new members because we are not a job or babysitting agency. Rather, think of Sitly as a neighbourhood hub where parents and independent childcare providers – including babysitters and childminders – can find and connect with each other. As an inclusive community, Sitly’s equitable access ensures that finding the right person for the job – or the right job for the person – remains fast and flexible for everyone.

That means screening is in the hands of our members. Parents, babysitters, and childminders can vet each other based on their own priorities and preferences. Beyond exercising common sense when it comes to sharing personal details, we suggest you carefully review provided references and plan an official interview before making any final decisions. When you’ve found the perfect match, you’ll be glad you took the time to make sure everything was in order.

Whether you’re online or in the real world, your safety is important to us. So, if you receive any inappropriate messages or mistreatment, be sure to file a report with our team so we can check it out. Remember, all reports are private and investigated seriously by Sitly’s staff. In addition, we perform manual checks on a routine basis and follow up on system alerts that notify us when anything out of the ordinary happens on our secure platform.
