SitterCircle is a babysitting app built on real relationships. Parents request babysitters. Sitters post their available hours. The app connects friends and mutual friends for babysitting jobs, so every booking comes from your community, not hundreds of strangers in a marketplace. FOR PARENTS Request a babysitter once, instead of sending eighteen "you free?" texts. SitterCircle shares your request in the order you trust. Your regular sitters get first dibs, then your friends' trusted sitters, then sitters in your community groups. Every sitter is connected to someone you already know, and the app shows you exactly how. FOR SITTERS Post the hours you are available, and parents in your network book them directly. Block the time that is already yours, and the app stops asking. When a family connected to you needs a sitter, you are the first to know. Set your rate, pick your families, and track what you earn by week, by month, by year. HOW A JOB WORKS Once a sitter is booked, the app runs the night. Directions to the door, the wifi password, the bedtime routine, all in one place. When it is over, SitterCircle does the math and opens a one-tap Venmo payment to close out. BUILT INTO YOUR LIFE Calendar sync for Google and Apple. Maps and Venmo built in. No new tools to learn. SitterCircle is a babysitting app built on the friends, mutual friends, and community you already have. Not a marketplace of strangers. Not a group chat. Not an agency.
