Wedding Reception Babysitting
On-site babysitting at your wedding reception
A wedding reception is a celebration for adults. With Call Emmy on-site, children are safe, engaged, and cared for — and every parent can be fully present on your most important day.
Why it matters
Children at weddings deserve more than a corner to sit in
Inviting children to your wedding is a beautiful choice — and it comes with real logistics. A cocktail hour, dinner service, and dancing that runs until midnight is not naturally designed for children ages 2–10. Without dedicated childcare, one of three things happens: parents spend the night managing their children instead of celebrating, children become overtired and disruptive, or children are excluded entirely.
On-site reception babysitting solves this. A dedicated children's space — set up at your venue before guests arrive, staffed by vetted Call Emmy babysitters, stocked with age-appropriate activities — gives children a place to be themselves while adults celebrate freely. Parents can check in whenever they want. Children are never far away. And your reception unfolds exactly as you envisioned it.
What we provide
Everything included on the day
Dedicated children's room setup
We arrive early to set up an age-appropriate, engaging space at your venue — coordinated with your planner and venue staff.
Structured activities
Games, crafts, movies, and activities tailored to the ages of children attending. We keep them engaged from cocktail hour through the final dance.
Vetted babysitters
Background-checked, reference-verified, CPR-certified babysitters who specialize in group childcare in formal event settings.
Parent communication
Parents receive a direct contact number at check-in. We handle everything independently — and only reach out when necessary.
Infant care
Dedicated infant caregivers for babies and toddlers, with a separate space if needed. We bring pack-and-plays and infant supplies on request.
Sign-in/sign-out system
Children are only released to the adults who checked them in, or adults explicitly authorized in writing at drop-off.
