Babysitting isn’t just for nights out (how we’d love more of those!) Our teens can act as a valuable extra pair of hands during the school holidays, evenings and weekends.
Would you like a fun teen to play with your children or help them with their homework after school? Want to avoid that awkward “Don’t mind my toddler” interruption to your conference call when your children are home for the holidays? How about getting your children more active in the garden during the summer break?
Our teens are well briefed and mentored by the great MyPocketSkill team. We ensure that they’re fully aware of their responsibilities, their travel is carefully planned and that they understand Covid protocols.

MyPocketSkill is a social impact company. We are passionate about helping young people to gain experience in the world of work and to become more financially capable. By using our platform you are helping us in that mission.
Our young people are highly enthusiastic, hardworking and personable. To sign up to MyPocketSkill, they are required to go through a screening and onboarding process. We also use a system of levels, based on age, experience and re-bookings, to help you choose.
Our babysitting services are available both online or offline. The process of booking babysitting is simple.

A few tips on selecting high quality babysitting in Cambridge.
Search by location: our platform enables you to search by location so that you can find someone who is also in Cambridge.
Read through their profile: our young people have robust personal stories and experiences to share and they often write about this on their profile. Select a profile which you believe is believe to be relatable and with the skill sets which fit your requirements.
Read their reviews: our more experienced members often have reviews given by their past customers. Having more positive reviews are generally an indication of professional behaviour and that they have provided positive experiences to past clients.
Make a trial booking: It’s not expensive to book babysitting on MyPocketSkill. Booking an initial single session can be a great way to understand whether it’s likely to be a fit. Once you have found someone that works for you, it’s possible to make block bookings on MyPocketSkill, which many customers find more convenient.
Payment is managed through the MyPocketSkill platform. Our community managers work hard to ensure a good, fair and equitable experience is had by both our clients and the young people on our platform. If you have any concerns during our lesson booking process, get in contact with our team, via message or online chat, and we can assist.
