sitr. Membership

Childcare that fits
your family's life.

For parents who need reliable, recurring childcare — without the guesswork, the last-minute scramble, or the feeling of starting from zero every single time.

Register for Membership How it works

More than a booking. A partnership.

When childcare is a regular part of your family's week, you deserve more than a one-off service. The sitr. Membership is built for parents who value consistency, trust, and a team that actually knows their kids. So you can stop managing logistics and start getting on with your life.

This Membership is for you if…

You need reliable childcare at least a few times a month
You want a sitter or nanny who actually knows your child
You are tired of paying full price every single booking
You need flexibility across evenings, early mornings, events, or overnight stays
You want someone to call when your usual plan falls through
You are a local parent, expat, or tourist staying longer-term in Curaçao

What's included
Everything that makes the difference.

Lower hourly rate

XCG 17.50 per hour for a babysitter, XCG 22 per hour for a nanny. Your Membership fee pays for itself quickly.

Priority booking

First access during peak periods, holidays, and special event days. Before general availability opens up.

Backup support

If your regular sitter is not available, we actively work to find a replacement from our vetted network.

No travel fee

The standard XCG 10 pick-up and drop-off fee per booking? Gone. Members are exempt, every time.

Event booking discount

Planning a wedding, birthday party, Fuikday, or Curaçao North Sea Jazz? Members receive a reduced rate for all special event childcare.

Better referral rewards

Refer a friend and earn 20% credit off your next booking, instead of the standard 15% for non-Members.

Dedicated care profile

Your child's preferences, routines, and any special needs are on file so every sitter is prepared from day one.

Monthly check-in

A short personal touchpoint from our team each month to update preferences, share feedback, and make sure everything feels right.

Preferred sitter matching

Over time, we learn which sitters are the best fit for your family and match you with them first.

Membership pricing

Simple. Transparent. Fair.

One fixed monthly fee. Discounted hourly rates. No surprises on your invoice, ever.

Getting started

From inquiry to your first booking. Here is how it works.

1

You reach out and create your account

Send us a message via WhatsApp or the contact form, and register for free in our booking platform. Your profile holds your family's details and makes it easy to place booking requests from day one.

2

Intro call with a team member (approx. 15 min)

We hop on a short video call to go over your wishes, your child's routine, and anything that matters to you. This is how we make sure we find the right match, not just any match.

3

We find your sitter or nanny

Based on the call, we select two or three suitable candidates from our team and share their profiles with you.

4

Meet and greet

Before your Membership officially starts, you and your child meet the sitter in person. That way, the first actual booking is never the first time they have ever met.

Also included in the XCG 75 onboarding fee
5

Your Membership starts

The Membership fee for the first 3 months is paid upfront (XCG 150). From there, all bookings run through our platform at your discounted Member rate. Simple as that.

Transparency policy

Looking for a dedicated nanny, not a Membership?

The sitr. Membership is designed for parents who want ongoing access to our full network, backup support, and the flexibility to book across different sitters and occasions. But we understand that some families are simply looking for one person to become a regular, dedicated part of their household.

If that is you — and you are contacting sitr. specifically to find and place a sitter or nanny rather than to use our ongoing service — we can still help. In that case, a one-time direct hire fee applies in place of a Membership. This reflects the work we have done: the screening, First Aid training, onboarding, and matching process that made this connection possible. Once a sitter moves into a direct arrangement, they are no longer available to other sitr. families in the same capacity, which is a real cost to the network we have built. The direct hire fee makes that exchange fair and transparent for everyone.

Part-time

Casual or regular sitter

XCG 350
Under 20 hours per week, or occasional bookings
  • One-time fee, paid before the direct arrangement begins
  • No further sitr. involvement required
  • Full handover of sitter contact details
Full-time

Nanny placement

XCG 600
20 or more hours per week, or an ongoing nanny role
  • Reflects the placement value and training invested
  • Paid as a single fee before the arrangement begins
  • Full handover and clean exit from the sitr. platform
"We have tried a few different services since moving to Curaçao. sitr. is the only one that felt like they actually cared about our daughter, not just filling a slot."

Questions

Good questions. Here are your answers.

What is the difference between a babysitter and a nanny? +
A babysitter provides flexible, shorter-term childcare — perfect for evenings out, a few hours of work, or recurring bookings a few times a week. A nanny is a more consistent presence in your child's daily life, involved in routines, drop-offs, meals, and longer-term care. Both are available through the sitr. Membership. Not sure which fits your family best? Read our full guide here.
Can I cancel after 3 months? +
Yes. After the initial 3-month period, you can cancel with 30 days notice. No awkward conversations, no penalties. Just let us know via WhatsApp or email.
What does the XCG 75 onboarding fee cover? +
It covers an intro video call with a team member (approx. 15 min), the time we spend identifying suitable sitters from our team, and the facilitated meet and greet before your Membership starts. It is a real service, not an admin cost.
What if my sitter is not available? +
We actively work to find a replacement from our network. We cannot always guarantee availability, but Members get priority in our backup process and you will always hear from us quickly.
Can I book different types of care under one Membership? +
Yes. Your discounted rate applies across regular babysitting, nanny bookings, and event childcare — including weddings, birthday parties, and major island events like Fuikday and Curaçao North Sea Jazz. Same Membership, same perks.
We are tourists — can we still get a Membership? +
If you are staying in Curaçao for at least 3 months, absolutely. We regularly work with families who are on the island longer-term — from expats to remote workers to extended holiday stays. Reach out and we will figure out the best setup for you.
Is the Membership worth it if I book infrequently? +
Honestly? If you are booking less than 4 times a month, the numbers may not add up to a big saving right away. The Membership is designed for parents who need regular, consistent care. If you are not there yet, our standard booking rates work great and you can always upgrade later.
What is the difference between a Membership and a direct hire? +
A Membership gives you access to our full network, backup support, priority booking, and discounted rates across different sitters and occasions, on an ongoing basis. A direct hire is a one-time arrangement for families who want to place a specific sitter or nanny into their household directly, without using our platform going forward.
