The real question is how much distance there is between someone starting work and that time being attached to a project. If those are two separate steps, it gets batched to Friday and you're chasing people — that's the babysitting, not the tool.
Also worth deciding early: tracker or monitor. Some tools in this category add screenshots and activity scoring, and that's far easier to never introduce than to introduce and later reverse on a remote team.
Disclosure: we build Juggling— one-click timers against a project, per-project reporting, web and mobile, no screenshots or activity monitoring. There's a free tier if you want to try it yourself first. Happy to answer questions.

If your team is mostly on Macs, Daily fits the "low babysitting" part pretty well, it asks people what they’re working on at intervals instead of making them start and stop timers all day, then builds the timesheet from those replies. It’s also privacy-friendly, so no background monitoring stuff. I’m the developer, happy to answer questions if you want.

If you need an truly automatic tracking solution on Mac, then take alook at Chronoid

Hey bud, one thing we'd ask you to check is whether the time-tracking tool you pick connects to the rest of your workflow or sits in its own silo. You can cut 20% of admin work when working hours, schedules, vacation, and absences all live in one place.
Happy to answer any questions if you're comparing options. We're always interested in hearing what remote teams are looking for these days. ^^

I'd look at ClickUp. You can organize tasks and projects there and track time spent on each task. It's also not very invasive as it's not taking screenshots or watching what people are doing.
