You can find new babysitters two ways: through your network or in your neighborhood.

There’s no better way of finding babysitters than getting referrals from friends. With Sitter, you can find the most recommended babysitters in your circle of friends by connecting with your friends and family in the app.

If you’re new to the area, you can find sitters in your neighborhood too. While this functionality is available to all Sitter users, we have only officially launched this in Colorado, so outside of Colorado you may not see sitters. If that’s the case where you live, keep in mind that you can use Sitter to book your babysitters regardless of where you find them. So, if you find one on Care.com or Craigslist, no problem! You can add them to the app and use Sitter to book and pay them.
