Babysitters & Baby Equipment
Maui’s a lovely destination – one of the world’s finest – but if you have an active toddler or infant in tow, sometimes it’s hard to find a moment appreciate all that tropical beauty. Below are a few handy companies and websites we’ve found that we hope will make your lives (and vacation) a little more relaxing.
Baby Sitting Services
The Nanny Connection
Maui’s longest serving nanny agency providing short term, qualified nannies and babysitters to enhance your family vacation. We are the island’s only nanny agency holding prestigious memberships with the Association of Premier Nanny Agencies (APNA) and the International Nanny Association (INA). We are also a member of the Better Business Bureau, the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), and the Maui Chamber of Commerce. Our nannies are experienced, carefully screened, Infant and Child CPR and First Aid certified, and strive to create a caring, safe , and fun environment for your children.
Happy Kids Maui
Happy Kids is a nanny referral childcare service agency that provides CPR and First Aid certified nannies for the best quality childcare to visitors and residents. We will work closely with you to match our nannies to your children, and can also arrange a meet and greet or a phone conversation with your nanny if requested.
Aloha Babysitting and Nanny Service
Although we are newer than other Nanny or Babysitting agencies on Maui, we are more flexible, less expensive, and deliver the same or better quality care than other agencies on Maui. We know plans & weather can change, and we do not charge high cancellation rates.
- Age appropriate toys, games, arts & crafts
- Pool or beach swimming by parental request (your babysitter/nanny will be in the pool with your child)
- Babysitting and short term Nanny services at your hotel, condominium, or home.
- Available 24 hours a day 7 days a week
- Childcare providers trained in CPR & First Aid.
Baby Equipment Rentals
These days, traveling to Maui with extra (but vital) baby items is expensive and cumbersome. Why not rent those items instead of hauling them through airport security or shelling out those extra airline charges! Here are a few companies to choose from.
Akamai Mothers
Reasonable prices and reliable service has made this one of our more popular choices. Daily and weekly rental rates. They also give a multiple rental discount (5% off the second and subsequent items up to 20% off total). Finally, they give an extra discount for long term rentals of 2 weeks or more.
Baby Furniture Rentals of Maui
Furniture rentals include Full Size Cribs, Pak-N-Plays, high chairs, car seats, roll away beds, but this small company doesn’t stop there. They will go the extra mile and even stock your condo with those little “must haves but can’t pack” items BEFORE you arrive! Diapers, specialty food items (yes, they can do marketing for you in anticipation of your arrival). Available 7 days a week.

I am looking for advice for my daughter (10 yrs old – 11 in June). My husband and I want to scuba dive and I have no idea what to do for my daughter or if there is even an option for her to have fun while we are out.
Mahalo!
Hi Laura,
Are you staying somewhere with a pool? Or within easy walking distance of the beach? I’d recommend hiring a sitter and have your daughter hang out at home or on the beach. Most diving organizations won’t split charters with both scuba and snorkeling.
Any of the services listed here should be able to match a compatible “companion” for your daughter for a morning. Just have the day planned out ahead of time. Breakfast, beach, pool, reading or video games, etc… I like “Happy Kids” as the can often arrange a meet and greet between you and the sitter ahead of time.
Write us back and let us know what you ended up doing!
Aloha,
Lili
