Testimonials

I highly recommend Coastal Babysitters both for their babysitting, but also for their kids club program. We recently attended a conference during school holidays and the kids just loved the activities during the kids club program and the people who ran it. Thank you so much, I'm looking forward to our next visit to the Gold Coast and being able to use them again.

Thanks again to Maria and Coastal Babysister for looking after our 2 year whilst we enjoyed a family wedding. Maria made us feel very comfortable to leave our son in her care. From the booking to the night of, all aspects were handled really professionally which we appreciated as this was the first time my wife and I had left our child in the care of someone that was not a family member.

Coastal Babysitters were an excellent choice for our wedding reception. All the parents spoke very highly of the sitters and I saw the kids were well entertained. The flexible finish time was helpful and I found the price to be very reasonable for the level of service we received.

I have used coastal babysitters twice now, they are absolutely amazing. I had the pleasure of Tracey for the first visit, and my daughter just loved her so requested her again. I can't recommend them enough. Extremely reliable and very affordable. I had always put having a babysitter off scared that it would be too expensive, but hit breaking point and just needed a break. I will never hold off now!

Coastal babysitters was recommended to me by a friend & it has been a lifesaver!! Orly is extremely helpful & we were paired with the lovely Lucy who my daughter absolutely adores. My husband & I are finally able to enjoy date nights without any worries!

We had Catherine watch our 3yr old while we went to dinner and drinks. She was FANTASTIC. Our son adored her and she even brought him little presents and a book on dinosaurs (she phoned ahead to ask his interests and to get to know me, which was so reassuring). I cannot recommend her enough! We were so so happy with her communication of texting me photos during the evening of our little terror having a blast. Thank you so much Catherine! We will absolutely be requesting her again and will aim for date nights every 2 months 🙂

Thank you again!

I couldn’t recommend coastal babysitters highly enough. I run a child health company where I run courses and there are often lots of babies, in order to have an extra set of hands I use this service and couldn’t be happier. The service is second to none and the quality of the sitters provided has been beyond any expectation. Thank you Orly and team for providing such a valuable service- anyone utilising the service is very lucky to have you.

We used Coastal Babysitters for the first time on the weekend. Nat was absolutely amazing, I felt comfortable leaving my 2 kids with her. My 5 year old was asking where she was the next morning when he woke up. We will definitely be using their service again.

I used Coastal Babysitters twice while we were away. Both times they were great. They kept the kids entertained so we could go out and enjoy some us time! Highly recommended to everyone!

Lucy was fantastic.  The girls took to her immediately and had a great time.  We were so impressed with the detailed account of the night that Lucy left for us.  Highly recommend Lucy and Coastal Babysitters. Would most definitely use them again.

The girls are AMAZING!! I would not hesitate to recommend Coastal Babysitters to anyone and everyone I know.

Karla Meredith

I wanted some time for myself, to catch up on some work and quiet time midweek, to feel like a human and not just a mother. It’s so hard for me to trust anyone with my kids but Coastal Babysitters provided me with an amazing loving and calm lady that my kids loved straight away! Thank you! They know exactly what we mothers think!

I love using Coastal Babysitters to look after my son. Vanessa is so great with him. She brings activities and does an amazing job teaching and playing. Highly recommend to anyone needing a sitter.

It was lovely to have Theresa to look after our 3 children.
They had lots of fun, playing games, making aprons & singing songs.
With having no family here, it makes our night out so easy, being able to leave our precious children with someone we trust & equally know they are comfortable with.

Thankyou again Theresa & Coastal Babysitters xx

Booking was really easy, fair pricing and the care was excellent. We booked a babysitter for a morning to look after our 2 girls, 3 1/2 and 22 months old when we stayed in Byron for a holiday. She entertained the girls with games and toys she brought and the girls loved it! Will definitely use again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a babysitter while in the Byron Bay Area!

I have 2 little girls myself and I would only ever send someone to your family that I would trust with my own children.
