Babysitter at home
Are you looking for a full-time babysitter for a baby, weekly afternoon company for a preschooler, or transportation help for a schoolchild's activities? If workdays stretch, schedules are tight, or you just want to take a breather, Tuttu has the right trusted person to help your family's everyday life.
We have many interviewed and experienced babysitters in the Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa, and Kauniainen areas, many of whom study early childhood education and have worked in daycares, for example. We have checked IDs and criminal record extracts from all, and many also have recommendations, diplomas, and first aid certificates. We find a babysitter for each child whose schedules, qualifications, and prior experience meet the family's wishes.
Tell us more about your situation, and let us suggest just the right babysitter for your baby!
It's this simple
1. You decide, when.
Life with kids is sometimes unpredictable, and it is part of the charm! We do our best to keep up and offer help, even at short notice.
2. You decide, who.
It takes courage to invite strangers to your home, let alone to take care of your kids. We know our babysitters and take time to present them to you, so that you can choose the best fit for your kid.
3. We take care of the rest.
You've asked for babysitting help in order to save time, not waste it, and we get that. We handle payments and paper work so that you can focus on something more pleasant.
How are your babysitters chosen?
-
30-minute interview. In the interview, our babysitters' skills and motivation have been assessed using questions developed by early childhood education professionals.
-
Previous childcare experience. Many of our babysitters work in daycare centers or are studying in the field. Their experience has been verified, for example, by calling a reference.
-
Background checks. We check the identity documents and any first aid certificates, etc., for all babysitters. We also verify the criminal record extract on behalf of the family at no extra charge.
How can we help?
Regular babysitting
Our babysitters assist children weekly in various activities such as daycare trips, meal times, outdoor play, hobby transportation, and bedtime routines. If a family's regular Tuttu babysitter falls ill, we strive to arrange a substitute.
Care for a sick child
Most of our babysitters also take care of sick or recovering children who are not yet able to return to daycare. We are usually able to help even with requests that come in on the same morning!
A single visit
You can find a reliable babysitter for unexpected situations through us. So, don't hesitate to ask for help even at short notice!
Daycare
While waiting for daycare to start or as an alternative to family daycare, your baby or toddler can be cared for by a Tuttu babysitter.
Language learning
Our babysitters are native speakers of various languages including Finnish, English, Swedish, French, Spanish, Estonian, Russian, Somali, Greek, and Hungarian, and they can support your child's language development through play and exercises.
Babysitting for holidays
If the daycare is closed during holidays, your first-grader needs company during the long summer vacation, or if you want a babysitter to accompany you on a holiday, we are happy to help.
