“She is very nice and trustworthy”
Whether it's a night out with friends or structural, after-school care: every family recognizes the challenges regarding childcare. Having a pleasant and reliable babysitter on hand is absolutely essential.
Through the Charly Cares app, you can connect with our network of Babysitting Angels. Specify what you're looking for, and you'll be matched with babysitters who meet your criteria. Each babysitter has the necessary experience, so you can leave with peace of mind. Our Angels are your guardian angels and love to make it a super fun day with the kids.
Our Angels help children discover themselves, develop, and grow. You'll always find a babysitter with a profile that suits your family.
Decide how and when you want to use your babysitter. You can easily arrange everything in our app. Within 3 hours, you can have a babysitter at home or arrange after-school care, for example.
We've personally met every Angel, and after each babysitting service, parents provide a rating & review. Our Customer Care and Angel insurance are there for you when you need them.
Before a Babysitting Angel is admitted to our app, we first meet the babysitter. During a one-on-one conversation, we delve into the babysitter's experience, references, and motivation. After a babysitting service, parents evaluate the babysitter through a rating and review. This way, we create transparency and ensure the quality of our platform.

Find your babysitterYou can think of Jobboard as the old-fashioned bulletin board in the supermarket, where you put up a note if you're looking for a babysitter. Jobboard works the same way and is a kind of bulletin board for our Babysitter Angels, where they can see job posts from parents.
There are 2 ways to make a booking request, either way, you can use Jobboard.
Option 1
Option 2 (In areas surrounding cities)
You can also reject the proposal. Your booking request does not disappear from Jobboard. You have 6 hours to respond to proposals from Angels.
Good to know
- Angels who do not fully meet your requirements can also respond to your request on Jobboard.
- When you invite an Angel and they subsequently accept the offer, they become the Angel on the booking. When an Angel makes an offer on your booking, you still have to accept it.
The payment through the app works as follows: when the Angel is at your home, a timer will automatically start, and upon their departure, you stop the timer. Then, you check the times for accuracy and choose whether to pay the Angel privately or through your business (if your employer reimburses for babysitting expenses). If you are paying personally, you can, after consulting with the visiting Angel, choose a payment method:
Note! For a Pet Care booking, a fixed rate applies to that booking. The timer will automatically stop, and you don't need to take any further action. The same applies to a Senior Care booking; the timer will be automatically stopped. Both Pet and Senior Care payments are processed through direct debit.
If you're looking for a babysitter for multiple days per week, we recommend inviting as many Angels as possible for the booking. Create the fixed babysitting reservation yourself, select as many Angels as you can, and post the booking on the Jobboard. This increases the chance lof a successful booking!
For bookings starting from September and lasting a longer period, we advise selecting multiple Angels for 1 to a maximum of 4 times and then discussing whether they can stay for an extended period. We have many students in our database, and they don't yet know their schedules for September in August. Additionally, our experience shows that bookings further in the future are less likely to succeed compared to those happening sooner.
Easy peasy! In our app, go to 'Discover' > 'Book an Angel'. Enter the dates and times for which you need a babysitter. You will then be able to either select 10 Angels yourself, or post your request on Jobboard.
Selecting 10 Angels yourself? Write a personal message and send the request, then wait for the Angels to respond. If one of them accepts, your request is successful.
If you choose Jobboard, write a personal message and post your request to Jobboard. All Angels near you will be able to see your request and respond. In the end, you decide who ends up babysitting.
