News like this that makes me want to ditch sitters but then, daycare centers are worse. Between the two, I think it’s safer to go for sitters. It’s just a matter of choosing the right childcare service to find a safe sitter.

Face it. A background check is not enough to trust a sitter. Interviews are easy to ace especially if the applicant is a good liar. I’m not saying that we shouldn’t conduct them but what I am saying is that together with background checks and interviews, it’s a must to get feedback from previous employers. That’s where Urbansitter gets it right. They get other parents to vet for the sitter and for me, that matters a lot.

I’m pretty straightforward with the sitters when I interview them. I tell them I prefer someone who doesn’t drink at all. It’s important for me to say that since the sitters I get are usually college students. When you’re a college student, well, you know how it is. I feel it’s better to be straightforward about it.
