After 9 wonderful years, we officially closed Island Sitters in 2022.

Founded in 2013, Island Sitters was proud to be an award-winning childcare agency based in Barbados. We connected families, businesses, concierge services, travel agents, hotels, and event planners with certified, experienced, and passionate childcare professionals.

Whether it was short-term help, long-term placements, holiday care, or event childcare, we were honoured to support so many families across a range of needs—with diversity, cultural awareness, and genuine care at the heart of all we did.

Thank you to every client, partner, and sitter who made the journey so meaningful. Your trust and support meant everything to us.

With gratitude,

The Island Sitters Team

Being confident and prepared to are two things we are very passionate about at Island Sitters. This is why we are excited to share our partnership with Thrive Training Institute, to provide affordable, online CPR training to our community. You can do your CPR training virtually and receive a certificate from the American Heart Association.

The course is thorough, easy to digest, and would be perfect to gift to family members, co workers, soon to be parents and grandparents.

Every parent and childcare provider should know how to perform CPR or know what to do if someone is choking.

Your downloadable certification is valid for 2 years and you can repeat the course as many times as you need for a refresh.
