Sittr is free to sign up and search for carers.
We don’t ask for membership or subscription fees to join or have access to our carers unlike most babysitting platforms and there is no booking fee. Instead all you pay is an hourly or daily rate for your carer when you make a booking.
Our rates include the carer's earnings and Sittr's fees so there is nothing else to pay on top of the cost of your booking.
All bookings are subject to Sittr's Terms of Service. A summary of Sittr's Cancellation & Refund Policy can be found here.
