Our Services

  • Relax and enjoy your Cairns getaway while we keep your little ones safe, happy and entertained in your hotel or holiday home. Perfect for families visiting Cairns and Port Douglas.

  • Professional on-site babysitting for weddings, parties and corporate events so adults can enjoy the moment while children are cared for nearby.

  • Reliable babysitting in the comfort of your own home, with engaging activities and familiar routines for your child.

  • Cairns is a vibrant but often transient town, and many new parents lack nearby family support—especially when partners work away. Our compassionate postpartum care offers gentle, practical help to support your recovery and make those early weeks feel calmer and more manageable.

  • Give your newborn the gift of better sleep with short or long term SNOO bassinet hire, delivered and set up for you.

  • The most thoughtful gift for a new mum. Give the gift of rest with a babysitting or postpartum care voucher.

  • For added peace of mind, we offer a complimentary FaceTime/Video call before your booking. It's a chance for you and your little ones to say hello, get to know your babysitter, and feel comfortable before they arrive at your home.

  • Jo has been supporting our family for the past 2 years, caring for my grandchildren whenever needed. The children adore her and are always excited to see her. She is fun, energetic, and nurturing, with a calm confident manner that connects wonderfully with the children. Jo is flexible, reliable, and helps with everything from morning rituals and daycare drop-offs, to activities, meals, bath time, and bedtime routines. She has truly been a lifesaver for our family, and we feel incredibly lucky to have her in our lives.

  • I was visiting Cairns for work and used Executive Babysitting to look after our 2 boys (6 years and 1 year old) for few hours so me and my wife could attend work dinner. Christine was very friendly and kids had good time with her. Would definitely use executive babysitting again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others.
