Sittercity.com provides an online platform for parents and babysitters to meet and communicate with each other. Parents and sitters create personal profiles which are used to help identify possible matches.

Searches can be conducted by personal details, college, transportation capabilities, and other special qualifications. Reading parent reviews of sitters is most helpful, and the site has articles, tips, and checklists for sitters and parents - as well as information on responsible sitting and emergency care.

All information entered into the database is protected for privacy and security.

Those who want the added peace of mind that comes with a background check can order that separately (for an additional fee.)

The annual payment plan is the most economical option for those who may be searching for a sitter on a regular basis.

Most parents we know who have used the service have been very satisfied, and we know several who have not only found weekend sitters, but the nanny of their dreams via the site. Folks can also search for senior care providers, petsitters, dog walkers, housekeepers, house sitters, and tutors, too!
