WHY PARENTS PRAISE SITLY

How has a great sitter changed the lives of these families?

Sarita: “When Emilia came for an interview, she almost immediately started to play with Elsaa and Nooaa.”

Mari: “Anne always sends me photos so I know how things are going. I really like that.”

Sanna: ”Because Laura babysits one evening a week, we have time for each other again.”

Jaana: “It’s nice that Hanna does the things with the kids that I can’t find the time to do.”

Karita: “Because Miia picks up Joni from school, he no longer has to go to after-school care.”

This is what parents in Helsinki are saying about the childminders and babysitters in their city.

Sadhana

Sadhana on luonteva, oma-aloitteinen, luotettava ja erittäin lämminhenkinen lastenhoitaja. Ehdottomasti paras lastenhoitajakokemuksemme!😊

Emma, Helsinki • 6 July 2026

Sadhana

Sadhana hoiti 2-vuotiasta taaperoa illalla ja kaikki meni hyvin! Sadhana oli hyvin aikataulussa ja kävi tutustumassa lapseen erikseen ennen hoitoa. Hän puhuu sujuvaa englantia, joten kommunikointi onnistuu englanniksi. Voin suositella jähäntä hoitajaksi!

Jo-ann

We feel so lucky to have found such an amazing babysitter. From the very first day, she made our child feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. It was clear how patient, kind, and genuinely attentive she is. Our child always looked forward to spending time with her, which gave us so much peace of mind whenever we were away. She is reliable, communicative, and treated our family with so much care and respect. We truly appreciated everything she did and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any family looking for someone they can completely trust with their children.

Odessa

Odessa hoiti ja leikitti kolmevuotiastamme kotona ja leikkipuistoissa. Hän on rauhallinen, reipas ja luotettava hoitaja. Suosittelut!

Simo & Niina, Helsinki • 1 July 2026

Salla

Salla on ollut meidän luottolastenhoitaja viimeiset 8 vuotta. Lapsemme olivat 3v ja 5v kun Salla alkoi käymään meillä ja nyt he ovat 10v ja 12v Salla-faneja. Salla on ihana, rauhallinen ja ystävällinen lastenhoitaja, jolle selvästi lasten hyvinvointi on lähellä sydäntä. Salla leikkii ja ulkoilee lasten kanssa mielellään ja meidän lasten kanssa nykyisin myös leivotaan. Salla on hoitanut meidän lapsia myös yön yli ja kaikki on aina mennyt hyvin. Voin siis suositella Sallaa lämpimästi lastenhoitajaksi.

Membership registration is always free, with no obligations. You can use your free Basic account to browse all of the profiles for registered childcare providers in your area, and send free replies to get to know more about the sitters who message you. If you want to be able to start conversations, however, you’ll need a Premium subscription:

1 month: 18,95 €
3 months: 26,85 € (8,95 € per month)

Please note, your Premium membership will automatically be renewed for the same period of time as you originally signed up for. Remember, you can cancel anytime and still retain access to Sitly’s exclusive Premium features until the end of your current billing period.

Before starting your search, take a little time to figure out what your needs are. Full-time support? Part-time care? On-call help? Make a wish list of necessary and preferred characteristics so you can apply the right filters to our web tool.

We’ll provide you with a list of available sitters. Then you can personally screen and vet promising candidates by asking for references and organizing an official interview. If you find a babysitter that meets your requirements, set up a trial period on Sitly to get in touch with them directly.

First things first – message the prospective babysitter or nanny about any past childcare experience they may have, and ask about references from prior families. Then you can check in with the other parents to see what their impression was of the sitter.

Next, come up with a list of questions that will help you determine if the sitter will be a good match for your family’s needs. Review our 10-Step Guide for Parents for examples of questions to ask candidates during a babysitting interview. Finally, when you’re ready, schedule a convenient time to get together in person for a one-on-one.

There is no standard hourly rate for childcare services. Rather, each nanny or babysitter’s rate is determined by several factors – including their age and level of experience, the number of kids who need looking after, and how far they need to travel for the job.

In order to come up with an appropriate rate, you should first take into account the minimum wage for your area. Then, you might consider offering a higher rate of pay to keep things fair if you’re asking for any help with things like tutoring or chores around the house – or if you know your kids can be a handful for even the most patient of sitters!

Sitly lets you expand your sitter search to find independent childcare solutions in your neighbourhood – including babysitters, nannies, and childminders. Choosing the right type of sitter for you means weighing the pros and cons carefully.

Keep in mind that nannies typically work a set schedule and provide dependable assistance with more demanding tasks – while babysitters are usually scheduled as-needed and focus their energy on keeping kids safely entertained. A childminder might give you the best of both worlds, but you’ll need to pay extra attention to other important factors like location, flexibility, and cost.
