Common hotel and visitor care plans

A sitter can meet you in the lobby, at the front desk, or in-room once hotel access is clear.
Airbnb and short-term rentals
Share building entry, lockbox, elevator, parking, and host rules before the sitter arrives.
Dinners, events, and weddings
Book a longer window when travel, speeches, late meals, or rideshares may delay your return.
Visiting family plans
Care can happen while parents work remotely, attend appointments, or take one evening out in Vancouver.
Arrival plan
What to share before the sitter arrives
Hotel babysitting is smooth when the sitter knows the building and the child routine before arrival. Put these details in the booking notes so Sunhouse can match the right caregiver and avoid lobby delays.
- Hotel name, room number, lobby meeting point, and concierge instructions.
- Child ages, bedtime routine, food rules, allergies, and medical notes.
- Whether the sitter may leave the room for a walk, snack, hotel amenity, or nearby outing.
- Expected return time, late-night buffer, and who to call if plans change.
- Parking, elevator access, front desk names, and any guest-access rules.
This same handoff list helps parents, hotel concierges, assistants, and relatives give the sitter clear instructions before care begins.

Questions
Hotel babysitting FAQs
Can I book a Babysitter to come to my Vancouver hotel?
Yes. Sunhouse supports visiting families staying in Vancouver hotels, Airbnbs, furnished rentals, and short-term accommodations. Share the exact arrival plan, room or unit access, child ages, and routine notes when you book.
How much does hotel babysitting cost in Vancouver?
Hotel and Airbnb babysitting is $28/hour. Families who are not on a membership also pay a 35 +GST agency booking fee per booking.

Yes. A concierge, coordinator, or assistant can help start the request, but Sunhouse still needs parent contact details, child notes, emergency information, and clear handoff instructions before care begins.
Can I book late-night hotel babysitting?
Yes, when a sitter is available for the late block. Add a realistic buffer for dinner, concerts, weddings, match nights, rideshares, and elevator delays so the sitter is matched to the true booking window.
Are hotel Babysitters screened?
Yes. Sunhouse Babysitters are interviewed in person, reference checked, criminal record screened, and CPR or First Aid verified before joining the roster.
