At times, it can be difficult to for your baby, especially a baby sitter or nanny that will take great care of your baby It’s important that you don’t take this process lightly, and you always check the references of any babysitter or nanny to make sure they come highly recommended. These best way to find a great baby sitter and nanny is by referral. Simply ask around to all your friends and parents to see how they found their babysitter or nanny to get advice. Many cases, most of the good nannies and sitters will know each other and can recommend another good baby sitter or nanny if they aren’t available. There is nothing more powerful than word of mouth.
We don’t recommend finding someone to care for your baby on a website like Craigslist as you never know what you can find on this type of your site and your goal is to find someone that will take the best care of your little ones, so we wouldn’t steer you in that direction.
However, there are many nanny and babysitter agencies that can help set up meetings for you with prospective nannies and sitters. They will simply set up the meeting and take a percentage or nanny fee, or in most cases they will take a one time fee for their help in finding you a nanny.
There are websites that can be useful to find a part-time sitter to get kids to and pick them up from school, provide assistance with the homework, and even put dinner on the table for the family, such as SitterCity.com. What’s great about this website is that you can view resumes, profiles, and past work experience to make sure the babysitter is a good fit. You can even do a background check to make sure there is nothing on the record, or post a nanny job to all the local sitters in your area.
