How quickly can I book?

For hourly babysitting, often the same day. For a recurring nanny match, we usually have you meeting candidates within 48 hours of a request.

Do I pay if a nanny isn’t the right fit?

No. Meet-and-greets are free and you only pay once you book a session. If a match doesn’t work, we re-match — no charge, no awkward conversations.

What areas do you cover?

Old City, Nimmanhaemin, Santitham, Wat Ket, Hang Dong, San Sai, and Mae Rim. Outside the ring? Ask — we usually find a way.

Is the nanny insured?

Yes. Every active nanny is covered under our third-party liability policy while on the job.

Cash, transfer, or card?

Thai bank transfer (PromptPay) is most common. International card and Wise are both fine for hourly bookings.

Can my nanny come to our Airbnb / hotel?

Absolutely — about a third of our hourly bookings are at hotels or short-term rentals. Just include the address in the request.
