Childcare that moves at the speed of life.

NOD is for every time a parent used to say 'Sure, why not?’. Whether it’s for right now, later today, just two hours or every Wednesday — you can have a personally vetted carer at your home in under an hour.

Providing parents with the freedom to say yes to more.

Modern life is fast – you get work emails at all hours, the group chat plans events minutes, not weeks in advance, and life no longer stops after 30. You need a childcare service that moves at the same speed.

NOD isn’t just a babysitting app. Its flexible childcare that runs on autopilot.

Build a trusted set of go-to carers, and say yes to more ambition, more rest, and more of your life.

The immediate confirmation was super reassuring, knowing everything was pre-paid for and sorted was a huge weight off my mind.I’ll definitely be using NOD again. It’s a truly valuable service.

How good is NOD! We needed to find someone last minute and managed to book in the afternoon for that same evening.Helene was incredible. Super easy-going and straight into reading a book and interacting with the kids. They took to her instantly and were both sleeping like angels when we got home - what a win.

Helene is great! She was so friendly, calm, bubbly & you just felt good vibes! She juggled three (4, 2 + newborn) while I got my house in order. I only just met her but my anxiety of trying NOD disappeared instantly!

The experience was beyond what I expected. My baby girl was so comfortable with Jessica she probably didn't realise that I was gone. My worries instantly went away as soon as I met her and I know baby girl is in good hands.  Coming from Asian background we don't normally leave our babies with anyone else except family. But this experience has given me greater confidence in making future bookings. Thanks again Jessica! You're a star 🌟  And thanks Haylee for making such a great platform for moms 💓

I highly recommend NOD. With 5 little minis it’s not easy finding someone to look after them while my partner and I just pop out to get some us time or run errands. After our first trail with NOD we just let out a sigh of relief that we are now able to leave our babies in the care of someone who is experienced and capable.We were fortunate enough to have Helene and Junette. Our kids loved them. I believe children are good readers of people and as soon as our children met them they warmed up towards them very fast.

We had the lovely Chloe from NOD services on Wednesday evening.
This was our very first time having a baby sitter, she was amazing and our girls took to her very easily.They had such a lovely couple of hours with her, our daughter now has requested if we get a baby sitter again to request having Chloe.
Thank you Chloe and also NOD for making this such a easy and hassle free first time for us.

Our nanny was so great. My tell is always the first few minutes on arrival. Beelined to the smalls and immediately spent her energy making them feel comfortable. Oosh. The best.

Enna arrived early and quickly set to creating a bond with my kids, who warmed to her very quickly, I could hear them singing and playing and having a lovely time. My three year old is already asking when she is coming back. Such a fantastic service which worked like a dream. I feel really confident now that I will have a trustworthy option when needed

Helene, our lovely NOD nanny, was wonderful. Experienced, easy to chat to and really caring. Exactly what I needed! I knew my little one was in very safe hands.
