We can all agree that being a parent is the most important job we will ever have but it is also hard work! Those little miracles we brought in to the world take oodles of time and attention and they deserve the best we can offer them! When I had my two kids, I was far from family and my husband was working close to 80hours a week. We were exhausted and needed not only a break, but some time for just the two of us to reconnect. The problem was, we were not going to hand our kids over to just anyone nor were we going to pawn our kids off to a friend that already had enough to handle with their own kids. When the kids were very young, we also didn't want to mess with their sleep schedule by taking them to another house just so that we could go out to dinner one night!
Lucky for me, my techy geek husband found Sittercity.com. I knew they were the perfect solution for me when I read on their site "Finding your ideal caregiver is about so much more than simply finding someone to do the job. It's about trust. It's about chemistry. It's about the perfect fit." Exactly! Sittercity provides very detailed caregiver profiles that include a photo, list of specific skills and training, references, reviews and even background check results!
I was able to post a job with exactly the type of babysitter I needed including what I was willing to pay. Within minutes (not kidding!) I had multiple candidates applying to my posting! I conducted a few face to face interviews and was able to pick a great sitter that my kids really enjoyed as well. I have been a member for over two years now and anytime our regular babysitter can't make it, I use my Sittercity account to find an alternate sitter, even last minute!
Whether you are a SAHM who needs a break now and then, a working mama who needs a full-time nanny, or a couple needing a night out, I would highly recommend using Sittercity. You can breathe easier knowing you have a qualified person with a proven track record taking care of your children.
As a bonus, they also offer tutors, pet care, senior care and housekeeping! And taking another angle, Sittercity is a great place to go if you are looking for work in any of these areas!
