My husband and I both work from home so taking time off to have a date night is very important for us. However, I am picky about who babysits my daughter, Joy. Although, we are blessed to have a friend that owns a day care and several older nieces who love watching her; there are times that none of our resources are available.
Recently, I had an opportunity to try UrbanSitter.com unique service. I was surprised how easy it was to use the system to hire a reliable babysitter. It is very hard for me to trust someone that I did not know with my daughter. So to have peace of mind, I used the following requirement to make my selection.
Here are 5 Questions to ask before hiring a babysitter:
- Does the babysitter have a background check on file?
- Are they CPR certified?
- How many recommendations did they have?
- Have they worked with any of the parents from your child’s school, after-school activities, and your network of friends on Facebook and LinkedIn?
- Have they worked with children in my daughter’s age group?
UrbanSitters system provides all the information above and is the most convenient way to find babysitters and nannies for occasional needs, last-minute help, backup care and part- or full-time needs. You can book or interview with just a click and at the end of the night, you can simply pay the sitter by credit card.
As Matt and I enjoyed dinner at one of our favorite restaurants. Joy had a great time with her babysitter. She gave Joy her undivided attention and I planned on hiring her again, soon. She was upbeat and did a few extra activities with Joy without being asked beforehand.
