Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Wedding Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a wedding babysitter to make sure the little guests are happy and the adults can celebrate stress-free.

1. Hire early

Secure babysitters well in advance, as weddings often fall on busy weekends.

2. Check experience

Choose sitters with proven childcare experience, ideally with multiple children and event settings.

3. Run background checks

Verify references, qualifications, and certifications (like CPR and first aid). See our guides for more information:

4. Ask about ratios

Make sure there are enough sitters for the number and ages of children attending. You may need to hire multiple wedding babysitters.

5. Clarify duties

Define whether babysitters are supervising during the ceremony, reception, or in a separate childcare room.

6. Provide entertainment

Ensure babysitters bring or can organize age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities.

7. Discuss meals

Plan ahead for kid-friendly food and snacks that babysitters can easily serve.

8. Set boundaries

Decide on locations where kids will stay (kids’ corner, separate room, outdoor space) and communicate rules.

9. Plan for bedtime

If the reception runs late, arrange a quiet area or sleeping setup for younger children.

10. Keep parents informed

Make sure babysitters have contact numbers and a system for reaching parents quickly if needed.
