Getting started
How do I find the right babysitter for my family?
Use our search to look for babysitters near you. Filter by availability, experience and special qualifications. Browse profiles and reviews, then get in touch directly.
How do I sign up as a parent looking for childcare?
Fill in the registration form and confirm your account via the activation link in the e-mail. Once activated, you can post a childcare request and browse carer profiles right away.
What applies if the babysitter is under 18?
Babysitters can work through HalloBabysitter from 16. From 16 the same rules apply to everyone. Ask how the babysitter gets home, especially after dark. And if you like, talk to their parents too.
Costs & membership
Can I deduct childcare costs from my taxes?
Yes — under certain conditions childcare costs can be claimed as special expenses on your German tax return. We recommend consulting a tax advisor about your specific situation.
