I started New Plymouth Babysitting because as a Mum I found there were times it was hard to find a babysitter that I knew and could trust. New Plymouth Babysitting is here to make it easy for you. I have personally met & selected all of our Babysitters and would trust them completely with my own children. New Plymouth Babysitting has completed Police vetting forms on our babysitters, they are all over 18 and they are all First Aid Trained. To book a babysitter please click on the contact us page. There is an option to select your preferred babysitter however this is not always guaranteed.
