Rates depend on how long you need care, how many children you have, and your city. On average, expect around €10 to €15 per hour. Thanks to the 50% tax credit and the CMG allowance from the CAF, in-home childcare often costs far less than parents expect.

Pay your babysitter simply and securely straight from the Babysittor app. You agree the rate together. Remember to declare your babysitter through Pajemploi or CESU so you can benefit from the 50% tax credit and stay compliant with the law.

Downloading and creating a profile is free. For parents, a subscription gives access to all features: posting ads, browsing detailed profiles, messaging and secure payment. Babysitters use the app completely free of charge.

Browse profiles, family reviews and the parent community on Babysittor. Ask the babysitter about her experience and training (first aid in particular): this information is self-declared and is not verified by Babysittor. Also consider proximity. Always arrange a meeting with your children before the first sitting to make sure it's a good fit.
