AQUORIA O.N.E gives sitters and agencies exactly that, as part of an all-in-one business app. Families book hours you're free, tell you about the children as they book, and your notes on each family are there before you ring the doorbell.
Bookings by the hour, at the family's home
Babysitting is S$20 an hour with a three-hour minimum; evening babysitting is S$22 an hour from four hours; full-day care is eight hours at S$130. Every service happens at the customer's place, so families give the address when they book and the calendar keeps your travel time clear. The booking asks for the children's names and ages, and parents can add anything else in the notes. If a family asks for a sitter tonight, you can still book them in yourself from your phone, since your own bookings can skip the notice period.
- Hourly bookings with your own minimum
- Book at least so many hours ahead
- A reminder to the parent the day before, by the SMS or email account you connect
- A deposit for full days or New Year's Eve, if you want one
Regular families, set up once
A family that needs you every Wednesday from 3pm is booked once with a weekly repeat, say ten times, and AQUORIA O.N.E skips any week you're already taken and tells you. Notes only your team sees keep the details that matter: 'Ethan, 4, peanut allergy, EpiPen in the kitchen drawer; Chloe, 7, reading before bed at 8.30'. Every visit and payment is on the family's page.
Getting paid, and running an agency
Take payment by PayNow QR, bank transfer, cash, or card online once you open a payment account, and send a reminder with a link to pay when a month of Wednesdays adds up. On Business, an agency adds its sitters with their own logins, working hours and days off; parents can pick a sitter they know, and each sitter's home screen lists their visits with the addresses.
- Weekly or fortnightly repeat bookings
- Sitters' own calendars, on Business
- Payroll with CPF for employed sitters, on Business
- Reports on bookings, repeat families and busiest evenings

Questions
Is there a babysitting app for sitters to take bookings?
AQUORIA O.N.E gives a sitter or an agency a booking page that families open on their phones. They choose the service, the date and the hours, give the address and the children's names and ages, and book. You manage the calendar, notes and payments from your own phone.
How much does a babysitter cost in Singapore?
Sitters set their own rates, usually by the hour with a minimum, and often charge more for evenings, public holidays or more children. In AQUORIA O.N.E each service has its hourly price and minimum, so a family booking four hours sees the total before confirming, and the payment is recorded against that booking.
Can I have a babysitting booking website without building one?
Yes. AQUORIA O.N.E gives you a shop link that works as your booking website, with your services, prices and free times, plus a QR poster to share. Families book and can pay there. You don't need to build or host anything, and you can share the link on Instagram, Facebook or in parents' group chats.
What goes into a babysitting business plan?
Your hourly rates and minimums, the areas you'll cover, the hours you can work, how families will find you, and the insurance and first-aid training you'll have. Once you're running, AQUORIA O.N.E reports show bookings, repeat families and your busiest times, so you can see where the work really comes from.
What does babysitting software do?
It takes the admin off your evenings: families book free times on your page, the children's details and address come with the booking, reminders go out the day before by your own SMS or email, and payments are recorded. AQUORIA O.N.E adds private notes on each family, weekly repeats for regulars and, on Business, sitters' own calendars and payroll.
