Safety & trust

Your kids’ safety is the whole job

Trust isn’t a slogan for us — it’s a process. Every sitter passes the same checks, training, and trial sits before joining a family.

Our vetting process

Five steps before a sitter ever meets your kids

  1. In-person interview

    We meet every applicant face to face and talk about real scenarios — tantrums, allergies, bedtime battles — not just résumés.

  2. Background check

    A police background check (including vulnerable-sector screening) is required before any sitter is placed with a family.

  3. First aid & CPR training

    Every sitter holds current first-aid and infant/child CPR certification, refreshed on schedule.

  4. Reference checks

    We speak with at least two references — past families, employers, or educators — for every sitter.

  5. Trial sit & video hello

    New sitters complete a supervised trial sit, and your family gets a free 15-minute video hello before the first booking.

During every sit

Clear routines, open communication

📋

Your house rules, written down

Routines, allergies, medications, and emergency contacts are recorded on your family sheet and reviewed at every sit.

📱

Check-ins you can count on

An arrival text, updates during the evening, and a short recap when you get home. Reach your sitter anytime.

Emergency-ready

Sitters know your emergency contacts, your home’s exits, and the nearest hospital — and carry a charged phone at all times.

The calm ending

From hello to lights out

A good sit ends the way it began — calmly. Your sitter follows your wind-down routine, reads the last story, and leaves a short note about how the evening went, so there are no surprises when you walk in the door.

  • Bedtime routine followed exactly as you wrote it
  • Night-light, white noise, and favourite blanket in place
  • A short recap note waiting for you when you get home
