Kiwi’s Pick of the Week: SitterCity

With all the traveling coming up, sometimes finding a babysitter in a strange city is hard. That’s why I was so excited when I found out about SitterCity (and why it’s our pick of the week).

glowlogo.gifSpending the week at Grandma’s in Chicago sounds like a great idea. But what to do with the kids when all the adults have to leave? Call a sitter, or look up one online! SitterCity has a searchable database of all the babysitters, nannies and child care professionals in a certain area. Just type in your zip code and begin your quest for the perfect sitter.

Worried about the sitter’s credentials? SitterCity has:

  • A four-step screening process
  • Access to background checks
  • Comprehensive sitter profiles
  • Sitter video interviews

What’s even better? Leaving for a while and do not want to put your dog/cat/bird/snake in a kennel? SitterCity has a pet sitter database, as well. It’s a great resource and just takes one more thing off of that long list of things you have to worry about. Membership is required, but a small price to pay for piece of mind. What’s also great? You can give a membership for a gift. (Check two things off that list of things to worry about!)

OMG..I just found a sitter for this weekend, my husband’s Xmas party! Thanks so much. I’ll let you know how she is.
