History
Babyntsi has the status of an urban-type settlement since 1938.
Until 18 July 2020, Babyntsi belonged to Borodianka Raion. The raion was abolished that day as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven. The area of Borodianka Raion was merged into Bucha Raion.[5][6]
On 26 January 2024, a new law entered into force which abolished the status of urban-type settlement, and Babyntsi became a rural settlement.[7]
