Great app

great app! love that it lets you be a sitter under 18 too! the one thing i have to complain about, though, is that the app takes part of the compensation you’re paid. it’s only like $2 and hour that they take but still. i get that they need to make money and that’s how they make some but charging the parents two dollars extra than the hourly rate and taking it when you didn’t sit it weird to me. but app works well and i love that i get recommended families that are walking distance from my house.

Great sitter!

Molly was wonderful with my girls! They are already asking when she can come again.

Nancy was great!

Nancy took great care of our two little kids. She is very responsive and attentive. We would highly recommend her and would love to have her back.

Whitney is AMAZING!

Whitney is a wonderful babysitter! She is reliable, caring, and great with kids. Our children love spending time with her, and we always feel confident knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend!

Need background checks for parents

I have been babysitting on this app for 3 years and I’ve had wonderful experiences. However, it doesn’t seem that parents also get background checked. As a sitter, I would like to know if the house that I am stepping into is a safe environment. It is important to acknowledge the safety for the sitter as well as the family. There is no marking on the parent’s profile that shows that they have been background checked.
