Babysitting and Nanny Agencies: a customer and a provider in a bright, modern setting

Finding someone to mind your child in Singapore usually means choosing between a short ad-hoc babysitter for an evening, a regular part-time sitter and a full-time or live-in nanny. Agencies handle the matching, but each describes its process differently. This list brings together seven agencies and childcare platforms that publish babysitting or nanny services on their own websites. Everything below is drawn from what each provider says about itself, so treat it as a starting point: ask each one how sitters are selected, what a trial looks like and what the booking terms are before you commit. Postnatal-only agencies sit on a separate LocalRank page.

1. NannyPro

NannyPro presents itself as a Singapore nanny agency with an office in Hougang, and its website lists several kinds of care. These include regular or part-time nanny arrangements, ad-hoc care for situational or urgent needs, nannies for hotels and events, and travel nannies who accompany a family overseas. It also mentions housekeeping and an ECDA childminding pilot. Requests begin with an online care request form, and the agency publishes a separate WhatsApp line that it says is meant only for urgent requests, with a contact page for everything else. According to its contact page, office visits are by appointment. Families who want a mix of recurring cover and last-minute backup may find the range useful. Ask how nannies are briefed before a first booking.

2. NannySOS

NannySOS is best known as a confinement nanny agency, but its babysitter page describes a wider childcare menu. The agency says it offers ad-hoc babysitters for shorter bookings, long-term daytime nannies for weekday care of infants and toddlers, and part-time sitters for regular or irregular needs. Its page also lists evening and weekend babysitting, hotel and outdoor babysitting for visitors, and school pick-ups. Requests go through a babysitter request form on the site, and the agency says details such as the child's age, location and timing help it recommend a suitable sitter. The page lists service areas across the west, east, central, north and north-east, and the footer shows activity into 2026. Confirm minimum booking lengths directly.

3. NannyStreet

NannyStreet is another agency better known for postnatal nannies that also publishes a babysitting service. Its website describes short-term and long-term babysitting for newborns and infants, including part-time and long-term nanny arrangements, and its enquiry form lists long-term live-in babysitter options for babies over sixteen weeks. According to the site, parents submit their search criteria through its mobile app, the agency suggests a candidate, and the family and sitter then discuss duties, duration and days off before an offer is sent. It adds that a long-term babysitter's main job is caring for the child rather than housework. The company lists an office at Tampines Junction and a 2026 footer. Check which of its services apply to your child's age.

4. Aunty

Aunty describes itself as a Singapore childcare service offering regular weekly babysitting, on-demand urgent babysitting and confinement nannies. For regular babysitting, its page says a concierge team learns about the family's schedule, children's ages and preferences, then sends a shortlisted sitter profile that includes reviews or reference checks, with a trial available before confirming. Hours are booked as a package, and the sitter logs time in the system. Urgent bookings are made through its mobile app, while the website's contact button opens WhatsApp. The site also mentions a corporate package, a page for people who want to become nannies and an update dated August 2026. It is a useful option for families who like a managed, app-supported routine.

5. Kidibliss

Kidibliss is a Singapore childminding and babysitting provider with an office in Peninsula Plaza. Its website lists on-demand kid care, advance nanny care, corporate childminding and enrichment, along with an ECDA infant childminding pilot for babies aged two to eighteen months, which the site says runs on weekdays with government subsidies. It describes its on-demand service as available every day of the week, and bookings are made through an online account with separate paths for personal and corporate customers. Families can also reach the team through WhatsApp, email or phone during office hours. The footer shows 2018 to 2026, so the business appears active. Ask whether the infant pilot's eligibility rules fit your family before relying on it.

6. EduNanny

EduNanny, which its footer credits to Butler, describes a mix of nanny and childminding services in Singapore. The site lists a private nanny for regular, short-term or ad-hoc care at home, a confinement nanny, event and corporate nannies for children aged six months to twelve years, and travel nannies who plan care around an itinerary. It also describes an ECDA childminding pilot for eligible Singapore Citizen infants, with community care at Tampines East CC and home-based locations. Enquiries go through a form or WhatsApp, and the page states that sending an enquiry does not reserve care until the team agrees the arrangement. That clear wording is helpful when comparing agencies. It also lists small talent workshops, which it says are not childcare bookings.

7. Just Us Childcare & Eldercare Services

Just Us Childcare & Eldercare Services is an agency with an office in Yishun, and its site describes a long record of placing carers with families. The website lists live-in nannies, day nannies who mind children from infants to school age, night nannies for overnight shifts, hotel babysitters, event childcare, overseas holiday nannies and special-needs nannies, alongside eldercare, pet sitting and domestic helper placement. It also offers a confinement nanny option. The site shows an agency licence number and says it was founded roughly twenty-five years ago; both are the agency's own statements. There is no online booking flow, so families enquire by phone, email, WhatsApp or the enquiry form. It suits parents wanting one agency for several kinds of care.

How to choose

Decide the shape of care first. An evening babysitter, a regular weekly sitter and a weekday day nanny are different services, and agencies often specialise in one. Write down the days, hours, number of children and ages before you enquire, because every provider on this list says it matches using those details.
Ask each agency to explain how it selects and introduces sitters, in plain words. Some describe interviews, references or trial sessions on their own sites. Request those steps in writing for your booking, rather than assuming them, and ask what happens if the first match is not right for your child.
Check the booking terms before you need them. Ask about minimum booking lengths, last-minute availability, cancellation, how hours are logged and what is included beyond childcare. Some providers say babysitters do not take on housework, so confirm scope early. Get any fee structure in writing; this page lists none.
Confirm what the agency says about licences and subsidies. Several sites mention an agency licence or an ECDA childminding pilot with eligibility limits. Treat those as the provider's statements, ask for the details that apply to you, and check them with the relevant authority yourself if they matter to your decision.
Meet or video-call the person before the first day if you can. Share routines such as naps, allergies, screen time and emergency contacts, and ask how the sitter will update you during the shift. A short trial booking is a low-risk way to test the fit before committing to regular care.
