How many days are you looking for a sitter?*
If you’re not sure, that’s okay! If times are flexible but you know you want a few date nights or adventure days, we've got you covered!
Requested dates and times*
You can add more requests by clicking the “+” at the end of the line. *Please allocate appx 15 minutes of overlap for transition with the sitter before you need to leave. For specific tours, there is usually a check in time 30-45 mins prior to your tour time. Be aware our island has ONE highway and traffic can delay a commute up to 20-30 minutes sometimes. **Please note that we do have a 4 hr daytime and a 3 hr evening minimum, starting at 5pm. Some additional fees can incur, depending on the request. Please see our rates section for more information. We will confirm any additional fees with you before booking.

I don’t know where to start!
Do a little free-write and we will curate your time WITH you! With so much to see/do on Kauai, as well as the requisite relaxing, it can be overwhelming! The beauty of Aloha is going with the flow. If you don’t know your specific times and are willing to work around our sitters’ flexibility, this allows us to find the absolute best match for you!
Emergency Contact*
In the unlikely event of a major catastrophe, where you and your traveling party are unable to resume care of the kid(s), please provide an OFF ISLAND Emergency Contact we can transfer responsibility to (mainland is ok!). This is not you or the other parent!

Do any of the kids require specialized care?*

- All healthy!
- Special Needs
- Special Conditions
- Allergies
- Daily Medications*
Specialty care description
* THERE IS NO EXTRA FEE FOR CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. Charging more would be punitive and we believe all families should have an equal opportunity for safe, reliable, and professional childcare. Please call so we can clarify and ensure the best available caregiver possible!

Transition*
So we can better prepare a smooth transition upon sitter arrival, do you anticipate any difficulty when parents leave?

- A little tricky at transition; maybe cry, but less than 10 min.
- Tricky transition; pretty attached to parents.
- Not too sure how transition will go.
Notes for Transition:
Island Time:
Getting on island time means more than a grass skirt and a Mai Tai. You may already know it means the challenge of traveling with jet lagged kids who wake up at 1 am, ready to take on their (and your) day. Help prepare us so we can help you!
Time difference from home (hours) Acclimate well to new time zones (y/n) Nap appx start time(s) x duration(s) Bedtime appx time Sleep training / bedtime routine (y/n)
Sleep Notes:
Please describe any bedtime routines, sleep cues, prompts, sleep training practices and tools. Don’t forget if there’s a special lovie, stuffie, blankie, wubanub or paci used for comfort!
