Christmas is indeed a time for family, except that is, when you are parents and you need your children to be minded so you can spend time away from your, um, family. If you are like me, and have heavily relied upon (aka lucky enough to have) family to mind your children, then you will also know that there comes a time when everyone gets busy, and no one is available to babysit your kids. You know, at say Christmas time?
This year, Dan and I have been talking about the real need for us to find a couple of babysitters who could be called upon at the last minute to mind the kids. Problem is, we have no idea how to find those people. I mean, do they have experience? Are they fun? Can they get the kids to sleep? Heck, we can’t!
Luckily, we recently found a website that makes it easy! Babysits is an online childcare community that brings together parents and babysitters together. With babysitters and nannies from all across Australia, it is easy to find someone in your area. The whole process is super simple: search in your area, get in touch and then plan an appointment. It takes the hassle out of finding a last minute sitter.
Simple is good in the parenting world. So being able to search by area, exploring potential sitter reviews and profiles, then actually being able to screen and then interview them, all from the comfort of your home is amazing. There is no cost involved until you reach out to contact and organise the babysitter.
So essentially Babysits is like an ‘air tasker’ for babysitters. Customers review their work and the system self assesses. Word of mouth is one of the best way to find and refer great services, and this one is no exception. To get started head to https://www.babysits.com.au/
So when is date night?
