Naukri Mitra is directly hiring for a live-in babysitter job in Chennai, based in Venkatesapuram, for a family that needs reliable childcare through the night. Unlike listings routed through 24/7 nanny placement agencies in Chennai, this is our own opening, so every applicant deals with our hiring team directly, from the first screening call to the final joining formalities. If you have been searching for genuine night shift babysitter jobs in Chennai with a fixed salary, a verified employer, and a clearly written role instead of vague word-of-mouth offers, read the details below before applying.

Staying alert through the night for the child, including infants who wake for feeds every two to three hours Preparing formula, warming milk, or assisting with breastfeeding routines when needed Changing diapers and settling the child back to sleep without disturbing the household Watching for fever, discomfort or unusual crying, especially in newborns and toddlers under two Sterilising bottles and keeping the nursery tidy for the morning handover Briefing parents or the day caretaker on feeding times and sleep patterns each morning Skills and Qualifications The family is not looking for a certified nurse, but does expect someone patient, alert at odd hours, and comfortable taking full charge of a child overnight. Prior experience as live-in domestic help child care staff, in a private home or through a placement agency Basic knowledge of feeding, diapering and safe sleep practices Ability to stay awake and attentive through night hours Calm temperament to manage a crying or unsettled child Working Tamil or Hindi; basic English is an advantage, not compulsory Willingness to live at the employer's residence and follow household routines Openness to identity and address verification, since this is a position of trust Education and Experience The minimum qualification for this role is a high school pass (10th standard), enough to read feeding charts, medicine labels and basic written instructions left by the parents. A short course in childcare or an ANM background is preferred but not mandatory. For experience, candidates with six months to a year of hands-on infant care are preferred for these 24 hours nanny jobs in Chennai, though dependable first-time caretakers with strong references are also considered. Salary and Benefits Monthly salary of ₹15,000 to ₹25,000, paid directly by the employer on a fixed date Free live-in stay and meals included One weekly off, day agreed with the family before joining Support from the Naukri Mitra team for any salary delay or work-related concern A stable, long-term household position instead of short daily assignments Who Should Apply This role suits experienced ayahs, night nannies and domestic caregivers already in Chennai or willing to relocate. Many working couples prefer a resident night nanny over daily arrangements, since the child's routine stays undisturbed with someone present after midnight. Experienced single women who have worked as live-in help or in hospital baby-care wards often settle in well, as the routine is steadier than commute-based jobs. This particular opening needs a full-time resident caretaker, so part-time or daily-wage night sitting is not offered here, though we do list separate part-time and reside-in babysitter openings from time to time. How to Apply Apply directly through this Naukri Mitra listing or call our placement desk for a short telephonic screening. Keep your Aadhaar card, a recent photograph, and details of two previous employers ready, since basic verification is a standard step before any live-in placement is confirmed. Shortlisted candidates will meet the family in Venkatesapuram before final confirmation.
