How to make a booking for multiple dates

Updated yesterday

If you know you’re going to need a babysitter for several upcoming dates, then use the Specific dates option when posting a Repeat booking. Sitters will be invited to apply to all dates in one block booking, but can apply with a counter offer if they're not able to make one of the dates.

This is great if you have lots of individual dates coming up at different times, or you want to make sure one sitter can do the same dates — for example, a trial sit and then another one later that week.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Tap the Book a sit button on the homepage and then tap Repeat.

  2. Tap the "How often do you need help?" field and choose "Specific dates/times"

  3. Add in as many dates and times as you want help on. Bear in mind that the more dates you add, the less likely a single sitter may be able to help with all of them but you can edit dates later.

  4. Complete the rest of the request details and send the request.

At this point, sitters in your area — including any sitters you’ve used before or are connected to — will receive your requests and have the opportunity to apply. If they do apply and counter offer that they can only do certain dates, you can choose to edit the request either before or after it's confirmed.
