Rates
Our rates are a blend of a reservation fee and an hourly rate. We pride ourselves on providing quality care while supporting our babysitters. Please note, there is no financial obligation for submitting a babysitting request. Before a non-refundable reservation fee is collected, we will ensure information is accurate and all questions are answered.
Reservation Fee
A non-refundable reservation fee is required PER reservation to find and confirm your babysitter.
The fee is based on the number of hours and babysitters required. We accept AmEx, Visa, MasterCard and Discover. If the time reserved is exceeded, you will receive an additional invoice for the time added. A 50% down payment is required to begin looking for an available sitter (typically 2-6 weeks before the reservation begins, depending on reservation length and time of year). The remainder of the reservation fee will be charged once a babysitter has been confirmed for your appointment.
All reservations over 12 hours in one day will be charged a $135 Reservation Fee.
