Check before contacting providers

  1. Child and duty brief
  2. Caregiver identity and experience
  3. Emergency and allergy instructions
  4. Rates and cancellation terms
  5. Private communication plan
01

Write the care brief first

State child age, hours, meals, naps, transport, bathing, homework or other expected duties. Separate essential duties from optional household help so both sides understand the arrangement.

02

Check the caregiver and handover

Ask what identity, experience, references or checks are available for the arrangement. Before the first session, explain routines, allergies, medicines, emergency contacts and who is authorised to collect the child.

03

Agree on communication and exceptions

Confirm rates, minimum hours, late return, cancellation, transport and emergency spending. Decide how updates are shared without posting private child information publicly.

NEXT STEP

Use the checklist in a real comparison.

Review the XIYA service decision guide, then browse published records or create a private request.
