To book with Little Pelicans Babysitting, simply fill out the reservation form. Once your reservation form has been received we will contact you to confirm availability for the dates & times you have requested.
It is never too early to make your reservation as we keep our team small for quality reasons. If your vacation is still a long way off and you are unsure about your schedule, contact us with your vacation dates and we will work with you on specifics as your vacation gets closer. Of course, subject to availability.
Once your booking is complete, parents will receive their sitter’s profile which includes her photo and CV with contact information that you are more than welcome to contact.
You can pay cash at the end of each service, but we also accept Paypal payments or wire transfers (fees apply).
Our sitters work in the service industry, and gratuity is not included. Tips vary widely so a tip based on the quality of service you felt you received is usually a good way to decide.
A non-refundable deposit 20% of the total amount is required to secure your booking. The remaining payment for the service is due in cash to the nanny at the end of every session, if not fully paid before.
In case of cancellation within 24–3 hours before the session, we will charge you one full session of 3 hours. In case of cancellation between 3 hours and the nanny arriving for the service, you will be charged the full scheduled session.
We need to know your sessions required in advance. Our nannies are very busy in summer and work at various places and / or with various families on the same day. Please try and be as precise as possible in terms of timings and places with the sessions you require.
Changes to session times are permitted, however are subject to availability and the nanny’s other work commitments.
We suggest you give as much notice as possible, however little Pelicans babysitting has placed sitters before with less than 1 hour to spare so please, always give us a try!
