Kiddo is a great application to source babysitters for kids of all ages. So far I have had two babysitters from kiddo, both of whom work in childcare on a daily basis. They are used to working with kids and have first aid and blue card etc. My baby is only 8 months old and the babysitters have been great. I would definitely use kiddo for emergency and regular baby sitting needs.

The app is really user friendly. There is plenty of choice and both the owner and the participants are reliable and quick to answer.

It was such a relief to find this app! Easy to use and able to get a great and reliable babysitter at last minute. Babysitters have police checks and have to be verified which is a huge reassurance. Is my go-to for babysitting!!

Kiddo is honestly one of my favourite finds as a parent. I often found myself wondering as a young mum with little to no family support how I would find baby sitters, no grandparents as an option & none of my friends had responsible teenagers ofcorse so when I discovered this, it was like a weight off my shoulders. I have used 4 sitters now over the years and they have been incredible. The app is easy to use and very smart, the 2 hour late window option is SOOO helpful!I recommend this app to everyone

I have loved using kiddo. The App is super easy to use. The carers we have had so far fantastic. The new functionality of invoicing for NDIS is incredible helpful also.

I love Kiddo. I receive babysitting time for my three old son every week in all the places I have travelled to including cairns where I'm living at the moment, the kiddo app is so helpful. It always gives me the babysitter I need, even with short notice. I even get latino babysitters to talk to my three yr old in spanish. Thanks kiddo.

Fabulous way to find great carers, both in advance and last minute. The app has saved me so many times with sick kids and work! And the carers are generally top notch, with qualifications. Highly recommend.

Steph Allen

Kiddo is easy to use, has great babysitter profiles, plenty of sitters available (often at the last minute) and I trust them to care for my kids. I have used the service for my 2 young daughters multiple times and they have loved all the sitters and asked for them to return.

Kiddo is amazing. It's really simple, convenient and easy to use. I can set it up to suit my availability and have had the pleasure of caring for dozens of families thanks to the app. It has opened a whole new world of being able to make some extra income while enjoying looking after kids. Backed by an attentive team, I have the comfort of a system that supports a secure environment with all participants monitored. Thanks Bec and the team. Keep up the great work.

I am a qualified Carer with kiddo for 3 years now.The app is good as it allows families to review our profiles prior to a booking, getting to know us and a name to the face, making it easier on the first meet/ booking.Love the ⭐️ rating and the comments the parents leave for myself as carer.It works both ways as we get to rate the parents and leave a welcoming message.I would definitely recommend the Kiddo to any families looking for a sitter.

We discovered this ap about a year ago and have used it many times. With a small child and no close family to help out it has been an absolute life saver.All the sitters have been as described, caring and considerate. Its fabulous to have this at our finger tips knowing they are checked verified and available when we might need them

With no family closely, my husband and I very rarely book in a night out together (we recently had our first date night out in 3 years!) We had never used a babysitting service until we booked with Kiddo this month and were thrilled with the level of service we received - starting with being able to read a background on available sitters and choose the one we wanted. Our sitter Savannah was friendly, professional and fantastic with the kids. We will definitely be booking again soon!

Sarah Smith

23:25 04 Dec 22

What a great app, and a fantastic babysitter. We will definitely be using this service again.

Sarah Kendell

22:14 21 Nov 22

We used Kiddo for our recent date night and it worked out great - our babysitter was punctual, friendly, knowledgeable and followed all our instructions to a T. The pre pay system is also great as you don’t have to worry about having cash on hand. Will definitely use again soon!

Had Tyra sit for us whilst on holiday in Sydney.Easy experience using the app, easy and consistent communication. Even went above and beyond to bring our son Bluey stickers.Highly recommend!Felt perfectly comfortable and safe to leave him with her for 4 hours!

Catherine Miller

05:41 18 Oct 22

Easy to use and accessible App, far better than any of its competitors. The baby sitter we chose matched her profile and provided an excellent service. It can be very nerve racking leaving your little ones with a stranger, but the Kiddo app feels safe & secure and seems to attract quality carers. I'd definitely recommend and use it again

Patrick Franks

04:52 15 Oct 22

We’ve had great experiences with Kiddo each time we’ve used it. The app works well, the babysitters are all well vetted and transparently reviewed and payment is handled simply within the app itself. The babysitters we’ve used have been great with our children and have left us feeling confident.

Sarah Wziontek

06:12 11 Oct 22

I love the Kiddo app! Our family lives Interstate, so finding a babysitter can sometimes be hard. Kiddo app lets you look at Carers details and see their prior experience, and all the carers are screened with police check, WWC etc. the carers we have used have been great with our girls, and the app is just so easy and professional to use! I’ve had to cancel a babysitter before due to sickness too, and that was really simple. Definitely recommend

I would rate this higher than 5 stars if possible. This is such a great service. Every babysitter we have had has been wonderful, it’s an easy app to use, the admin team are friendly and helpful and the payments side of things is super smooth (no awkwardness, no having to have cash and when we had to get a refund it was sorted within minutes). I really do recommend this service (and do so regularly to my friends:-)

Emma Blake

Super easy to use app. Loved that I could see who was available for the times I required and choose the suitable person. Babysitter we chose was great with both kids. We have a son with special needs so to know he was properly cared for was very important to us and we were suitably impressed with the care given. Will definitely be using this app on a regular basis:-)

06:25 14 Feb 22

Kiddo simplifies the process of hiring a babysitter and takes off all the worry and trouble by building a network of fully capable and trustworthy babysitters around you. Have booked multiples times and have never been let down. Even when one babysitter cancelled us with short notice, Rebecca was able to arrange someone for us. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you Kiddo, I don't know how we would do without you!

I was very impressed with the professionalism of the a Kiddo team/management in the way they kept me up to date on the babysitting job and emails to explain what was required. I liked the way I was able to contact the Parent through their App. Further emails were sent to make sure everything was ok prior to the job as well as an email wishing me Goodluck. I was able to email Kiddo with some queries before the night and had very quick helpful reply emails.

As a single, professional parent it has been a god sent to find KIDDO. Having the ability to book a sitter at the drop of a hat and with such ease has made life so easy.

As busy parents of two girls aged 4 and 9, trying to find a convenient and reliable babysitter has been a challenge over the years. Enter Kiddo. The app was easy to download and easy to register. We created a profile and entered the dates we required care. At the time of booking, it was several weeks in advance.A list of available babysitters was immediately available. Each babysitter had a profile with ratings and experiences from other parents. Booking was easy, all communication was done through the app and payment was made via the app.I happily encourage other people in need of babysitting to try Kiddo. I know we will be using it again in the future.

I used Kiddo for the first time today & have been very happy with the entire process, despite being a nervous first time Mum of a 1 year old, I was able to find an experienced sitter and felt very comfy leaving her with my child for a few hours on a Sunday evening. The app is very easy to use; easy communication platform with the sitter once booked, and even the cancelation refund process (I had to cancel 1 booking from my original 2 bookings) the money came straight back into my account & quick response from Kiddo with my question. I will definitely use again as it cost effective and safe and reliable.

This is hands down the BEST app for parents. It connects you with FULLY qualified and screened babysitters who are available during the time periods you require. Payment comes straight out of your card and it is super easy to add extra time if your event goes for longer. Finding and picking a babysitter you trust has never been easier! 11/10!
