Vacation Babysitters
in Hawaii
A vacation babysitter is a local, background-checked childcare professional in your destination who comes to your hotel, resort, or vacation rental, so parents get real time off while traveling. Unlike a sitter you bring from home, there are no travel costs, and they know the area. Tutti Vacation is a Hawaii-based marketplace serving Maui, Oahu, and Kauai, with the deepest availability in Wailea, Kāʻanapali, Waikīkī, and Ko Olina. Rates run $25-$45 per hour depending on the sitter's experience, the number of children, and how long you need care, plus a 10% platform fee - every rate is shown on the provider's profile before you confirm, with no agency retainer or membership. Each provider completes identity verification and a background check before their listing goes live. You browse sitters, send one inquiry, and available providers reply within minutes. Booking 24-48 hours ahead gives the widest choice; same-day requests can be called in at +1 (808) 298-0235. Overnight and multi-day care are available by arrangement.
Tutti connects traveling families with trusted, background-checked vacation babysitters across Hawaii. Whether you're staying at a Maui resort, an Oahu hotel, or a Kauai vacation rental, we make it easy to find verified local childcare so you can fully enjoy your trip.
More than 1,200 families have booked care through Tutti across Maui, Oahu, and Kauai since 2024. See exactly how every provider is screened in our safety and vetting process.

"Mia was wonderful and really went above and beyond to make our family's stay special. My wife and I got some time to ourselves while our 3 kids got to learn about Hawaii, do arts and crafts, and play. They were in really safe hands and begged for more time with Mia!"- Adam R., Maui

Vacation childcare
When is a vacation babysitter the right childcare for your trip?
Families visiting Hawaii usually weigh three options: bringing their regular sitter from home, using the resort kids club, or hiring a local vacation babysitter. A home sitter brings familiarity but adds flights, accommodation, and meals. A kids club is built around supervised group activities during set hours. A vacation babysitter comes to you, on your schedule, and knows which beaches suit toddlers and which activities are worth the drive.
Read the full comparisons: vacation vs. traditional babysitters, resort kids club vs. private babysitter, and 5 reasons to hire a vacation babysitter.
A local vacation babysitter makes sense when
- You need childcare for specific evenings rather than continuous coverage
- Your child is under the kids club minimum age (usually 3-5)
- You want a dinner out or a date night after the kids club closes
- You are staying in a vacation rental with no kids club at all
- You want someone who knows the destination

Every age, any occasion
Childcare for every age and every occasion
Tutti sitters look after children of every age, from babies a few months old to teenagers, at hotels, resorts and vacation rentals on Maui, Oahu and Kauai. Whatever the reason you need a few hours, a whole day or the whole trip, there is a sitter for it.
Ages we care for
- Babies, from a few months oldBottles, naps and settling into an unfamiliar hotel room or rental. Many sitters have infant experience and say so on their profile.
- Toddlers (1-3)Busy and curious: snacks, safe play around the pool deck, bath time and bedtime.
- Preschoolers (3-5)Crafts, stories, sandcastles and a calm bedtime routine after a big beach day.
- School-age kids (6-10)Swimming, beach games, board games and a movie night in the room.
- Tweens and teens (11-17)A responsible companion at the pool, the beach or around the resort - for kids too old for a babysitter but too young to stay alone.
- Children with special needsSome of our sitters have experience caring for children with autism, Down syndrome, ADHD and nonverbal children. Describe your child in your request so sitters with the right experience can reply.
Book a sitter for any occasion
- Weddings and eventsThe ceremony, an adults-only reception or the rehearsal dinner - including a sitter on site for a destination wedding.
- Date nightsDinner out, a sunset cocktail or an anniversary while the kids stay in the room.
- Snorkeling, boat tours and luausGo out on the water or enjoy a luau while the kids stay happy back at the hotel.
- Hikes, sunrise trips and spa daysAn early start, a long hike, a round of golf or a spa morning - the adventures that are hard with little ones.
- Bedtime while you dineDinner, bath and lights out, then the sitter stays with sleeping kids while you enjoy the resort.
- Pool and beach daysAn extra pair of hands - or eyes - at the pool, the beach or the kids club.
- Conferences and work tripsChildcare during meetings, a conference or a company retreat.
- The whole tripThe same familiar sitter for several days, mornings, evenings or both.
Got questions
Everything you need to know
What is a vacation babysitter?
A vacation babysitter (or vacation helper) is a local childcare professional available in your destination. They don't know your children before you arrive, but they offer something your home sitter can't: local knowledge, availability exactly when you need it, and no travel expenses. On Tutti Vacation every vacation babysitter is background-checked, with a profile and reviews from other traveling families you can read before you book.
Should I use a resort kids club or a vacation babysitter?
Most Hawaii resort kids clubs set a minimum age somewhere in the 3-5 range and run set daytime hours. A private vacation babysitter fills the gaps: infants and toddlers under the kids club minimum, evening or late-night coverage for a dinner or date night, children with needs a group program may not accommodate, and vacation rentals with no kids club at all. Many families use both.
Can I bring my regular babysitter on vacation instead?
Yes, and many families do - particularly for multi-week trips or when familiarity matters more than local knowledge. The tradeoff is cost: you cover flights, accommodation, and meals in addition to regular pay, which can add $2,000-$4,000 to a trip. A local vacation babysitter makes more sense when you need childcare for specific evenings rather than continuous coverage.
How much does a vacation babysitter in Hawaii cost?
Rates on Tutti Vacation typically range from $25-$45 per hour depending on the sitter's experience, the number of children, and the type of booking. Tutti sets no minimum booking length - you agree the hours with your sitter, and a few sitters set their own minimum. Overnight rates vary by arrangement. All pricing is transparent on each provider's profile before you book.
Are your babysitters background-checked?
Yes. Every babysitter and Tutti Helper on our platform goes through a background verification process before joining. We also encourage families to review provider profiles, read reviews from other traveling families, and ask any questions before confirming.
Can I book a babysitter last-minute in Hawaii?
We do our best to accommodate last-minute requests. For the best availability, booking at least 24-48 hours in advance is recommended. For urgent needs, call us directly at +1 (808) 298-0235 and our team will try to find someone available the same day.
Which Hawaiian island has the most babysitters on Tutti?
Maui and Oahu are our busiest markets, with the most verified babysitters and fastest response times year-round. Families staying in Wailea, Kaʻanapali, Waikiki, or Ko Olina will typically find the most options. We also serve families on Kauai - book a few days in advance for the best availability.
Do you offer overnight babysitting in Hawaii?
Yes. Several providers on Tutti Vacation offer overnight childcare. Rates and availability vary by provider. If you need overnight or extended childcare, mention it in your booking inquiry and we'll match you with sitters who offer this service.
Can ChatGPT or another AI assistant set up my babysitter request?
Yes. Ask it for a Tutti request link with your island, dates, hours, number of children and where you are staying, for example https://www.tuttivacation.com/assistant-request?island=maui&dates=2026-12-22_18-22&kids=2&staying=Grand+Wailea. Dates are written as YYYY-MM-DD with start and end hours in Hawaii time (18-22 is 6pm to 10pm), up to 7 dates separated by commas. The link opens your request already filled in; you check it, sign in and press Send, and it goes to every available sitter on the island you choose. Nothing is sent or booked until you do.
What ages do Tutti babysitters in Hawaii care for?
Every age: babies from a few months old, toddlers, preschoolers, school-age kids, tweens and teens. Each sitter lists their experience on their profile, many have cared for infants, and some have experience with children with special needs such as autism, Down syndrome, ADHD or nonverbal children.
Can I book a babysitter in Hawaii for a wedding or an excursion?
Yes - families book sitters for any occasion: weddings and rehearsal dinners, date nights, snorkeling and boat tours, luaus, hikes, golf and spa days, conferences, bedtime while you dine, pool and beach days, or the same sitter for the whole trip.
