Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Vacation Babysitter

Follow these handy tips when hiring a vacation babysitter so everyone can get the most out of your family holiday.

1. Start your search early

Traveling babysitters are in high demand, so begin looking several months before your trip.

2. Choose someone with travel experience

Ask if they’ve traveled with families before and are comfortable with airports, hotels, and long days.

3. Check passports and paperwork

Ensure the babysitter has a valid passport, visas (if needed), and is comfortable with any travel requirements.

4. Discuss schedules and expectations

Be clear about when you’ll need childcare versus family time, so boundaries are understood.

5. Cover all expenses upfront

Agree on who pays for flights, accommodations, meals, and any extras before the trip.

6. Set pay rates clearly

Holiday babysitting often involves long hours; discuss a fair daily or weekly rate plus overtime if needed.

7. Review responsibilities

Clarify whether the sitter will supervise only in the hotel/villa or accompany your children on excursions.

8. Do a trial run at home

Have the sitter spend time with your kids before the trip to build trust and routine familiarity.

9. Check adaptability

Make sure they’re flexible with changes, new environments, and possible travel hiccups.

10. Trust and comfort are key

Since you’ll be spending extended time together, choose someone you not only trust with your children but also feel comfortable traveling with.

See our parents' guide to vacation babysitting for more detailed information.
