It takes a village.
We’ve heard over and over again that parents’ biggest pain point is finding new babysitters - BUT that they also aren’t comfortable using total strangers from the internet. We want to help solve that problem. Invite your closest parent friends to be a part of your village in villco, and share selected sitters with one another. No total strangers - ever. Trusted, village-vetted babysitters - always.
INVITE YOUR CURRENT BABYSITTERS & FIND NEW ONES
Have a great list of sitters you already know and love? Add them to your sitter list in villco! They’ll get an invite to download villco, where sitter accounts are always free.
Need more sitters? You’re not alone! Invite your trusted parent friends to be a part of your village in the app, and they’ll get an invite to sign up for villco. All parent accounts allow you to pick and choose which of your sitters you’d be willing to share with your village (share as many or as few as you want, and your friends will do the same). Check out sitters’ profiles and see who a great match for your family might be, and request to add them to your village sitters list. More sitters, no strangers, only village-vetted referrals.
SEE BABYSITTER AVAILABILITY
Don’t waste time guessing or waiting on babysitters to respond. See your babysitters’ availability and request and manage babysitting events in a convenient, efficient way. Have a flexible schedule? See when your favorites are available and book them accordingly.
SHARE IMPORTANT DETAILS
Share any helpful information with your sitters directly in the app: kids’ schedules, emergency contacts, allergies, house details, event details, pet needs, etc. Finally, a modern way to manage the babysitter and parent experience - and no more writing it down for every sitter visit.
SCHEDULE & MANAGE EVENTS
Need to schedule a sitter but hate waiting on a response? Create an event in villco and include any number of your sitters all at once (sitters can’t see how many or who else is included) – the first to accept wins the job! You’ll get a notification when the event is accepted, or if 4 hours have passed without acceptance. Literally click and forget! Manage all accepted and pending events in one easy-to-use calendar and keep organized who is babysitting when.
GET REMINDED!
Parents and sitters are reminded of all upcoming events, pending events, and availability updates. It’s like having your own babysitting assistant in the palm of your hand.
