Charly Cares Business
Support your employees with a business babysitter.
One of the most difficult puzzles for parents: how do I organize the care of the children? And that puzzle affects everyone: the family, the employee, the colleagues, and also the employer. With Charly CaresBusiness, you can support employees with a babysitter at home, making family-friendly working the new norm. If things are well-organized at home, employees can function well and even thrive at work.
Charly Cares all across the Netherlands
Charly Cares is the childcare platform that unburdens parents all across the Netherlands. From a last minute solution, a babysitter for flexible moments, to a fixed babysitter. Our service is available in 57 places. If your employee does not live in one of these places, they are able to add their own babysitter to the platform.
Why Charly Cares Business?
Employer of the future
With a business babysitter, you will unburden your employees when it is most necessary. When things are well-organized at home, everyone profits. The children, the working parents, and therefore the whole company.
Productivity, happiness at work & stress relief
Research shows that a business babysitter results in increased productivity and happiness at work, and a reduction in stress. While an experienced babysitter takes over the care of the children, the employee can focus on work-related matters without being disturbed.

Example case: Deloitte
Deloitte supports its employees with flexible childcare, because it sees the importance and necessity of a good work-life balance for its employees. Through Charly Cares Business, Deloitte structurally offers babysitting hours to its employees.
Marjolein Heijstraten,
Director Performance & Rewards Deloitte:
“Employees of Deloitte can make use of Charly Cares, either with their own babysitter or with a Charly Cares babysitter. During the lockdown, we initially started with this solution and now we offer it structurally as an extra fringe benefit. This solution offers our employees and Deloitte as an organisation the flexibility that fits the current way of working.”
Frequently asked questions
Will the babysitting credit for my employees be considered wages?
If there is room under the WKR (work-related costs scheme) and if the conditions for using the WKR are met, then you can designate it as ‘eindheffingsloon’. As a result, you will be able to reimburse your employees tax-free and the babysitting credit will potentially not be considered wages. If there is no room under the WKR, then the babysitting credit could be considered (extra) wages and the usual wage costs will have to be paid. We advise that you check with your financial department, or with an external administrator or tax specialist.
Do my employees need a Charly Cares membership?
Before your employees can book a Babysitting Angel, they need a membership. They can choose between 3 different memberships: basic, flexible, and premium. Based on their babysitting needs, they pick the membership that fits them the best.
Is Charly Cares Business available everywhere in the Netherlands?
Yes! As an employer, you can support every employee with a company babysitter. Charly Cares is active in 57 places across the Netherlands. Employees who do not live in any of those places can easily add their current babysitter to our platform.
