Need a nice, sweet and reliable babysitter now and then? No problem: Charly Cares to the rescue! Through our app you can get in touch with fun Babysitting Angels like Zara within minutes. Take a look and discover the Angels in your neighborhood. See you soon in the app!
Charly Cares means carefree care for your children. In our all-in-one app, you contact the Angels, and chat, book and pay for the help you need. Find an Angel yourself, or let them find you through our Jobboard. Because of our extensive network, you can be sure that your question will be answered. Every Angel has been personally checked by us, so we know exactly who is coming to your home. And should the need arise, there is Angel insurance or our Customer Care to fall back on.
More than just another babysitter
Our Angels help children discover, develop and grow. You'll always find a babysitter with a profile that fits your family.
Fast, smart, simple
Decide how and when you want to use your babysitter, and arrange everything easily in our app. You can have a babysitter at home within 3 hours, or arrange your after-school care with Charly Cares.
Safe and reliability
Our Angels are personally checked and reviewed after every babysitting service. Our Customer Care and Angel insurance are there for you when you need them.
Before a Babysitting Angel is accepted into our app, we first meet with the nanny. During a one-on-one conversation, we go into detail about the babysitter's experience, references and motivation. After a babysitting service, parents rate the babysitter through a rating and review. This way, we create transparency and ensure the quality of our platform.
Babysitting Angel Annabelle (25 years old):
"I enjoy going outside, playing games or helping with cooking while babysitting! Parents are always happy when I can pitch in. It makes them feel fulfilled."
Babysitting Angel Tara (age 19):
''Children are naturally very curious and adventurous. I often think of new activities to do with the kids. Therefore, babysitting is always an adventure!''
Babysitting Angel Farah (27 years old):
''Children are always honest and every babysitting shift is different. This makes babysitting challenging; it makes me creative and resourceful."

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.
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.
You 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.
Reliability is number one priority at Charly Cares. Before our Babysitting Angels start working with us, they are personally checked for experience, motivation and personality. We also ask for 2 references from families where they have babysat before. When filling out their profile in the app, they can do a personal iDIN check, which we use to verify their personal data. In addition, our Angels and families are both rated after each babysitting service, supplemented with a review if necessary. We constantly monitor this to ensure quality. These ratings & reviews are also visible to you when you book an Angel.
Here you can find a video where Charly further elaborates on this subject!
