    "Daddies' little helper" would be correct only if you were helping more than one Daddy. With some families, it's possible.

    If you are speaking only for yourself (one dad) then no the sentence is not correct. It should read:

    Dad's little helper or Daddy's little helper.

    If there were more than one father then it would be Dads' or Daddys' little helperS plural.

    The correct spelling, if you are referring to you and your ONLY father, would be: Daddy's little helper.

    The apostrophe comes before the 'S'
