Vacation babysitters in Rome and throughout Italy

Planning a family trip to Italy? You're in for an adventure! Italians truly adore children, and this love extends beyond their own families. When it comes to accommodating families on vacation, Italy's services reflect this adoration for kids.

Throughout the country, you'll discover a plethora of fantastic child-friendly activities. Some tour guides even specialize in family-friendly tours, ensuring everyone stays engaged during museum visits. Plus, dining out becomes a joyous affair. Meals in Italian culture aren't just about eating; they're cherished moments fostering connections and laughter among loved ones which means that restaurants not only tolerate but welcome kids.

These values make family travel enjoyable, but what about those moments when you crave some adult time? Picture a romantic dinner overlooking the Colosseum or a carefree wine tour through Chianti—dreamy, right? Yet, you might wonder who'll take care of your youngest during these moments.

In bustling cities like Rome, Florence, and Milan, as well as serene countryside locations in Tuscany or along the Amalfi Coast, finding reliable and trustworthy babysitters can be a game-changer for your itinerary. You might wonder about the logistics. How can you find trusted caretakers while travelling? 

It many countries that may be an overwhelming task, but thankfully, Italy, seasoned in hosting tourists for centuries, has honed its services to ensure visitors can savor everything the country offers. High-end hotels often provide babysitting services, especially if they feature adult-only dining. But what if you're in a boutique hotel or renting a villa?

Italy, with its rich history in hospitality, has fine-tuned its services to ensure visitors can fully experience all the country has to offer. High-end hotels often offer babysitting services, especially those with adult-only dining. But what if you're staying in a boutique hotel or villa?

That's where Tripsitta steps in.

I recently had the chance to meet and photograph the founder, Emmy.

Years ago during a trip to Italy, she enquired about arranging a babysitter at local hotels so she could marvel at the world-famous art collection in the Uffizi gallery while her 5-year-old son rested but was unable to find a babysitting service at a reasonable price and with enough information about the babysitter to give her the confidence required to leave her son. 

Recognising that other parents face similar challenges in their travels she established the babysitting agency International Babysitters and a few years later, Tripsitta which I describe as a kind of Airbnb for babysitters.

Hi, I’m Kirstie

Photographer and Australian expat living her best gelato life

Love of my husband (but mostly of cheese) brought me to Italy in 2020. He was desperate to be back with his Italian family. And honestly, what Aussie girl could pass up the chance to move to the land of pizza and gelato?! (Seeing a food theme here?)

My decade of photography experience was inspired by a trip of a lifetime. My grandparents took me on a trip to Europe when I was a teen, then gifted me an album so I’d never forget it. That album quickly became a staple of family visits and storytime.

When I moved to Italy, I was surprised how rare that type of printed keepsake is for the locals. It’s quite literally a foreign concept - tourists won’t find that type of session here.

It inspired me to recreate an experience for others as deeply meaningful to them as my grandparent’s infamous vacation album has been to me.
