Childcare support in West Vancouver

Families in West Vancouver often need care that can flex around commutes, school pickups, evening plans, errands, and rainy-day backup plans. Sunhouse matches each booking with the age of your children, the timing, the neighbourhood, and the type of support you need that day.

If your booking is recurring, you can request the same sitter again. If you need longer-term support, Sunhouse also helps families hire Nannies, household support, and mother's helpers through our Nanny Placement service.
