Babysitters vetted like our full-time nannies

Every My Village babysitter passes the same checks as our full-time nannies: interview, references and criminal record. Until now, only our families could reach them. My Village opens our black book.

Babysitting only

Our babysitters work a few hours at a time, around their main jobs. My Village is for one-off moments: an evening, a weekend, a wedding, a day you need cover. You can call the same babysitter again whenever she's free, but she can't take on a regular schedule, such as every weekday after school. For regular or long-term help, see our full-time nannies.

More than evenings and weekends? For support over more than 3 days, daytime cover, or several babysitters for a wedding or event, contact us on WhatsApp.

The +One Gift Voucher

Give them a little time back.

The gift every parent wishes someone would think of.

For the new mum who could really use a nap. The friend who hasn't had a date night in months. The parents who have just moved to Lisbon and don't have their village yet. The work meeting, the travel plans, the long-overdue dinner, or simply a few hours to do absolutely nothing.

Whatever they need the time for, you've just given them something priceless: a little freedom and someone wonderful to look after the kids.

1

You give the gift. Your voucher arrives by email within 24 hours, ready to send or print.

2

They choose the moment. One WhatsApp to our team, whenever they're ready.

3

We take care of the rest. Babysitter profiles within 45 minutes, and they pick who feels right.

Which areas do you cover?

Mainly Lisbon and Cascais. Elsewhere, just ask and we'll check.

Then you pay nothing. No sitter, no fee.

Who employs the babysitter?

She works for you directly and you pay her on the night. We find, vet and stand behind her.

Can my babysitter become our nanny?
