Vacation Babysitting · Turtle Bay, Oahu
Babysitters at Turtle Bay
and Oahu's North Shore
Turtle Bay babysitters on Tutti Vacation are background-checked local sitters who cover Oahu's North Shore and come directly to your room, villa, or cottage at the resort, so families staying an hour outside Honolulu can still book trusted childcare by the hour.
Turtle Bay is the only full-scale resort on Oahu's North Shore, sitting on its own point between Kawela Bay and Kahuku with the surf breaks, Haleiwa, and Waimea Bay all within a short drive. Families come here for exactly that isolation, and then run into its one drawback: almost every service on the island is an hour away in town.
That is why we match North Shore stays with sitters who actually cover this end of the island rather than anyone available on Oahu. Every sitter completes identity verification and a background check before their listing goes live. Rates typically run $25-$45 per hour.

Why families choose Tutti
How do I book a babysitter at Turtle Bay?
The usual answer is an agency in Honolulu that charges a booking fee and then has to find someone willing to drive out. You often will not know who is coming, or whether they will come at all, until fairly late. Tutti shows you sitters who already cover the North Shore, with their rates and reviews, and lets you book them directly.
The bookings out here skew toward daytime: a surf lesson, a ride on the coastal trail, an afternoon in Haleiwa, or a long lunch that is not going to work with a two-year-old. See all Oahu babysitters.

- Matched with sitters who genuinely cover the North Shore
- Built for surf mornings, Haleiwa afternoons and dinners out
- Background-checked, with reviews from other Oahu families
- Rate shown on every profile - $25 to $45/hour
Where families stay
Turtle Bay Resort or the Ritz-Carlton?
Turtle Bay Resort is the North Shore's flagship family resort: surf lessons, horseback riding, snorkeling, cultural programs and water slides, with multi-bedroom oceanfront villas for larger families.
The Ritz-Carlton O'ahu, Turtle Bay, next door, is the more refined option, with oceanfront family suites, a children's pool with a water slide, equestrian experiences and art studios. Tutti sitters come to either.

North Shore with kids
Is the North Shore good for kids?
In summer (May-September), yes: the water calms dramatically and the North Shore becomes one of Oahu's most charming family bases. In winter the swells are powerful and dangerous for young children, so plan pool days and inland outings instead. Where to stay on Oahu with kids compares it with Waikiki, Ko Olina and Kailua.
- Shark's Cove - calm-water snorkeling in summer only, best for confident swimmers 8+
- Laniakea (Turtle Beach) - snorkeling on calm summer days
- Waimea Valley - a garden walk to a 45-foot waterfall you can swim at
Easy outings on the way
- Haleiwa town - Giovanni's shrimp trucks and Matsumoto's shave ice
- Dole Plantation - the Pineapple Express train and a huge pineapple maze, on the drive from town
- Kahuku Farms Café - a farm-to-table lunch next to the working farm

Got questions
Everything you need to know
Do babysitters travel out to Turtle Bay?
Yes. Turtle Bay is about an hour from Honolulu, so we match you specifically with sitters who cover the North Shore rather than assuming any Oahu sitter can make the drive. Tell us your dates in the inquiry and we will find someone who genuinely serves this side of the island. If you are staying in town instead, see Honolulu babysitters.
Do sitters come to the resort rooms and the cottages?
Both. Turtle Bay has hotel rooms, ocean villas, and beach cottages spread across a large property, plus rentals in Kahuku and Kawela Bay nearby. Share the building or unit when you book so your sitter can find you without a ten-minute walk around the grounds.
Are North Shore babysitters background checked?
Yes. A sitter who drives out to Turtle Bay has passed the same identity verification and background check as every Tutti provider, and their reviews from other Oahu families are on their profile before you book.
How much does a babysitter cost at Turtle Bay?
Turtle Bay sitters charge the same $25-$45 per hour as the rest of Oahu, despite the drive; the number of children and the length of the booking set the total. Each sitter's rate is on their profile.
Can I book a sitter while we take a surf lesson?
Yes. Daytime bookings are common here. Parents take a surf or paddleboard lesson, ride the coastal trail, or drive down to Haleiwa for the afternoon while a sitter stays with the children at the resort.
How far ahead should I book for the North Shore?
Give yourself more notice than you would in Waikiki. Fewer sitters cover this end of the island and the drive is real, so a few days ahead gives you a much better choice than a same-day request.
