Children · Homework help

Homework done, and dinner is about other things. Even maths

Babysitters from your valley who help with primary, middle or secondary school homework. Schools and subjects are on the profile.

What you will find

Homework afternoons, organised

Someone who organises the time, helps understand the instructions and checks the work is finished.

By school

Primary, middle, secondary: each sitter says which schools they are comfortable with. You see it before you write.

By subject

Maths, English, German, Italian. Near the border you also find people who know German or the Swiss school system.

Regularly

The same days, the same person. Often with the whole afternoon: school pick-up, snack, homework, play.

How it works

Three steps, and the exercise book is closed.

  1. 1

    Search

    With the “Homework help” filter and your village.

  2. 2

    Compare

    Schools, subjects, rate, dated checks.

  3. 3

    A trial hour

    With you at home: you see straight away whether they click.

Schools and subjects are declared by the sitter. For a specific programme or learning difficulties, the first reference is the school; for particular needs see Special needs.

A girl helps a child with homework
At the first meeting

Five questions to ask before starting.

  • Which subjects are you most confident in?
  • Have you helped children in the same year before?
  • What do you do when a child does not want to start?
  • Will you leave me a note at the end on what you did?
  • Are you available on the same days for the whole school year?

On every profile, what we checked and when.

Identity

ID with a confirmation selfie, phone and email.

Qualifications

Checked with the body that issued them, when listed.

Full pay

You agree and pay each other directly: all of it goes to the person who works.

Checks cover only what is listed and on the date shown. AlpenSitter does not vouch for a person's suitability: always meet them in person. How we check
