After-school babysitting work something for you?

As an after-school babysitter, you pick the children up from school and take them to their sports club, for example. When the weather is nice, you can also go out and visit the playground, zoo, or park. Or would you rather get creative? Crafting, baking cookies: the kids you babysit are sure to love it.

Babysitting Angel Iris thinks a babysitting job is perfect!

"Each babysitting service is different. For example, I've been babysitting for one family for over 1,5 years and that's mostly after-school. For other families, it's full days, for example if they have young children. Occasionally, I'll babysit during the weekend. I really like the variety! The children are also different ages, which adds to the variety. With young children, you can play all day long, while you can have a nice chat with the ones who are slightly older..”

Luciana from Amsterdam

“It felt a bit uneasy, it wasn’t clear whatwas expected from me as a babysit. The language said English but Maksim couldn’t speak English or Dutch. There was limited explanation of a schedule or what I was there for, only soup in the fridge.Was I there to practise Dutch? I dont think you can expect nannies to rinse kids off in the showerafter a diaper change. I understand it was a bit hectic at first meeting, but a bit more information or showing the neccesities would make it better for future”

Frequently asked questions about types of babysitting work

Do I need babysitting experience in order to become an Angel?

Yes, in order to become a Babysitting Angel, it’s important that you have sufficient babysitting experience. Charly Cares requires at least 2 references from families where you have previously babysat. These references must come from outside your family and be written by parents of children you have actually babysat for. If a reference is unreliable or comes from someone without children, your profile will be immediately rejected and you will not be able to start with Charly Cares.

We request references to ensure that our Angels have the right experience and sense of responsibility to care for children. The references should be reliable and provide a good overview of your babysitting experience.

The contact details of your references are not shared publicly. Only the written review will be displayed on your profile, so parents on the app can see how other families have experienced you as a babysitter.

What will my interview at Charly Cares look like?

During the interview, we would like to briefly get to know you and what type of babysitter you are, and, of course, your babysitting experience. You schedule a one-hour time slot during which we will call you. We expect you to be available during this hour. If you don't answer, we'll assume you're not interested and you won't be able to complete your application.Did you miss the call, but would still like to babysit through Charly Cares? Send us a Whatsapp.

More on the interview

I'm not yet sure about my availability. What to do?

If you're not sure whether you can babysit, it's better to decline the booking request. This way, you can avoid having to cancel later. Make sure to keep your calendar up to date so you don't receive requests for days when you're unavailable. That way, you never have to decline a booking. A helpful tip: you can also temporarily pause your Angel profile if needed.
