Good question, it’s completely up to you. Via our app, you set your own hourly rate and you can also always change it. And the payment? That all happens online, within 4 business days, based on a timer that counts every minute. Nothing gets deducted from that final amount. So, everything you earn, you’ll receive in your bank account. What a great way to earn!

In our Babysitting App, you can set two hourly rates (day and night rate). You are entirely free to choose any rate you like. No worries, if you have a shift that is a combination of a day and an evening service, this will be automatically reflected in the final payment.
If you babysit during the day, you take care of the children all day. You’ll pick them up from school, for example, prepare their food, and make sure they have a fun day. Babysitting during the day can be quite challenging, so you should be compensated accordingly.
With an evening service, you’ll often have to make sure the children are ready for bed, or they’ll sometimes already be in bed. That means that, for most of the babysitting service, you’ll have time to yourself. That is why we often see that Angels set their night rate slightly lower than their day rate.
At Charly Cares, you are free to choose your rate. We get that it might be hard to estimate how much you should ask for. That is why, when you set your rate, we help you out by showing you what other people of your age in your area have chosen. You can also always change your hourly rate. If you, for example, are getting booked too often, you can slightly increase your hourly rate. Are you not getting booked enough? Simply decrease your hourly rate.
Babysitting via Charly Cares falls under the home services regulation (“dienstverlening aan huis”). That means you are not employed by us and we don’t withhold taxes. Everything you earn via Charly Cares will be deposited into your bank account. You do, however, have to include your Charly Cares income every year when you file your tax return. In this tax return blog, we’ll tell you more about it.
