Find a babysitter in Brossard with Margot
Finding a babysitter in Brossard is often the headache of parents who simply want to go out as a couple, attend an event, or take a few hours to breathe. Cancelling your outings because your sister-in-law isn’t available, begging your parents once again, or worse: leaving your children with someone you barely know?
A babysitter, unlike a regular nanny, offers you exactly this flexibility for punctual needs while ensuring your children’s safety in their own environment.
Margot supports Quebec families in their search for trusted childcare services. Founded by an experienced entrepreneur in the education and child services sector, our platform now includes 54 verified babysitters active in Brossard and surrounding areas, including the DIX30 sector, Quartier S, Quartier T, and family residential neighbourhoods. To date, 94% of our clients are fully satisfied and 75% of families find their babysitter in under 48 hours.
You’re looking for more than just a baby-sitter: you want someone responsible and caring, able to handle the evening routine, soothe a little boo-boo, or sing at the top of their lungs while laughing out loud with your children.
With Margot, create your account, publish your request, meet verified candidates and find your trusted babysitter within a few days. Every profile has been rigorously validated: identity verification, criminal record check and mandatory training depending on the service. You join a community where your children’s safety comes first.
How to find a babysitter in Brossard with Margot?
Whether you need a babysitter once a month or every week, our process is designed to simplify your life:
Describe your situation in a few clicks: how many children, their ages, your availabilities (evenings, weekends, emergencies), your Brossard sector, the languages spoken at home. A well-completed profile attracts the right candidates.
Only verified babysitters can see your posting. Indicate what you’re looking for: occasional babysitting, regular evenings, full weekends or occasional backup.
Using our messaging tool, chat with the candidates you’re interested in. Schedule a meeting (online or at your home) to see how things click with your children and confirm that they are the right person.
Once you’ve made your choice, consult our tips and advice to establish a good agreement with your babysitter. Our team remains available for all your questions.
Why choose Margot to find a babysitter in Brossard?
A complete verification process
Leaving your children with someone whose first name and profile picture you barely know? Crossing your fingers and hoping everything will be fine? You deserve better than that.
All babysitters registered on Margot go through:
- Criminal record check
- Identity validation with official Canadian ID
- Confirmation of the right to work in Canada
- Appropriate training depending on services offered (first aid, CPR, childcare)
No profile appears on the platform without completing these verifications at registration.
Candidates that truly match your needs
Your posting does the work for you: it naturally attracts babysitters available according to your criteria. At the same time, explore the profiles in your neighbourhood and filter by availability (evenings, weekends), experience with toddlers or older children, languages spoken, ability to manage multiple children.
By combining a posting with active searching, you greatly increase your chances of finding a babysitter in Brossard in record time. Your children will feel comfortable from the first meeting.
More than a platform: a real parental support system
Margot is much more than a simple list of profiles. We create a complete ecosystem for Brossard families: monthly webinars led by childhood specialists, exclusive content on our social platforms, and a team available to answer your questions.
You remain in control of your search, but you’re never alone in the process.
100% Quebec expertise
Unlike international generalist platforms, Margot specializes exclusively in family support in Quebec. We understand the particularities of Brossard families, work-life balance challenges, and the reality of in-home babysitting in our province.
A stable network despite natural turnover
Your favourite babysitter returning to school in September. Another moving to Montréal. Another who just had her baby. And you, starting the search from scratch. Again.
With your Margot subscription, you have continuous access to a base of verified and updated babysitters. Your usual babysitter is no longer available? Browse new profiles, contact someone who matches your criteria, and you don’t start from zero: they all went through the same strict verifications.
This is especially valuable if you have sporadic or variable needs: you’re never caught off guard. Your network of trusted babysitters grows with you, and you always stay in control.

Find a babysitter in Brossard for your situation
You need a babysitter for your evenings
Birthday dinner, date night, professional 5-to-7? You deserve these moments without guilt. A reliable babysitter is exactly what you need: she arrives, handles bath time, dinner and bedtime, and you come home with peace of mind knowing everything went well.
On Margot, specify your needs in your posting (frequency, evening schedule, ages of your children) and you’ll receive applications from babysitters who are available exactly during those evenings. No more begging your sister-in-law or feeling guilty for bothering your parents.
You need last-minute help
Emergency meeting at work, stomach flu knocking you out, flat tire on the way home from daycare… Calling six numbers from your contacts while hoping someone will pick up? No thanks.
With Margot, keep a list of 2–3 trusted babysitters you’ve already met. Contact them directly through messaging, and one of them will likely be able to help. That’s the luxury of having your own network.
You want a regular babysitter every Friday night
Friday night is sacred: it’s your date night with your partner. But every Thursday is the same scramble: “Do you have someone for tomorrow?” “I tried your cousin, she’s not answering.” “Are we cancelling again?” Enough.
Look for a babysitter who accepts regular commitments. Many on Margot block fixed times each week. Your children will end up looking forward to that day. And you’ll finally be able to plan your Fridays without exhausting logistics.
You work shifts with changing schedules
Nurse with variable evening shifts, police officer on rotation, firefighter with unpredictable hours? Unlike people who always work the same evenings, your schedule changes weekly. You don’t need a babysitter EVERY Tuesday evening, you need a babysitter AVAILABLE when your schedule lands on a Tuesday.
This is where Margot becomes your best ally. Instead of depending on ONE person (who will eventually move, change jobs, or become unavailable), you have access to a full network of verified babysitters. Your subscription allows you to contact several profiles depending on your changing needs. One not available? Contact another. That’s true flexibility.
You have several children of different ages
Managing three children aged 2, 5 and 9 on a Saturday afternoon? “Sorry, I only babysit ages 3 and up.” “I’m not comfortable with babies.” “Three is too many for me.” You know the drill.
You need someone who can truly orchestrate: naps for the little one, homework for the oldest, playtime for the middle child. Without losing patience. Without turning on the TV for four hours. On Margot, specify the ages clearly in your posting: it naturally filters candidates experienced in multi-child care who feel confident handling your little crew.

“Finally a platform where I can see background checks before contacting someone. I found Marika in three days for our Friday nights. My daughters love her and I leave with peace of mind.”

“I’m a nurse with rotating shifts. Having access to several verified babysitters on Margot is a relief. My usual babysitter is studying? No panic, I contact another. It changes everything.”

FAQ – Finding a babysitter in Laval
Find a babysitter in Brossard
$15 to $22/hour depending on experience, number of children and schedule
(Evenings and weekends generally cost more.)
An experienced babysitter with references charges $18 to $22/hour.
Rates may vary depending on responsibilities: meals, bath, bedtime, etc.
How to check a babysitter’s background?
At Margot, every babysitter must complete a criminal record check, identity validation with official Canadian ID, confirmation of the right to work in Canada, and all required training depending on the services offered. These verifications appear directly on their profile.
What is the difference between a babysitter and a nanny?
Babysitter: punctual supervision for evenings, weekends or occasional needs (a few hours). Nanny: regular full-time/part-time care, involved in long-term educational and emotional development (daily ally).
Do I need to provide a contract to my babysitter?
For occasional care, a formal contract is not always necessary, but it is recommended to have a clear written agreement about rates, responsibilities, schedules and specific instructions. For regular care (e.g. every Friday night), Margot provides contract templates to clarify expectations for both parties.
How do I pay my babysitter in Québec?
For occasional care, payment is usually made in cash or by Interac e-transfer directly after the babysitting. If you hire a babysitter very regularly (several times per week), you may consider declaring them as a casual employee. Consult Revenu Québec to understand your obligations depending on your situation.
Babysitter or daycare: which option for my evenings?
Daycares are not open in the evening or on weekends. A babysitter is therefore the only viable option for date nights, social events or professional obligations outside regular hours. The advantage: your children stay in their familiar environment and keep their normal evening routine.
Are there bilingual babysitters in Brossard?
Yes, our network includes several babysitters who speak fluent French and English, and can interact naturally with your children in both languages. Because Brossard is multicultural, some babysitters also speak Mandarin, Spanish, Arabic or other languages. Use the search filters to target your linguistic preferences.
How much does an evening with a babysitter in Brossard cost?
$75 to $110 for a standard evening (6 p.m. to 11 p.m., 5 hours) with two children, depending on experience and responsibilities (meal, bath, bedtime). After midnight, expect a higher rate or taxi fees for the return.
What happens if my usual babysitter is no longer available?
With your Margot subscription, you have full access at all times to our network of verified babysitters. Your babysitter is unavailable? Contact another one without restarting the verification process. All have completed the same rigorous checks. Your network evolves with your needs.
