What does it take to become a Sitters childcarer?

At Sitters, we work exclusively with experienced childcare professionals who are able to provide excellent references and have a minimum of 2 years' recent professional childcare experience. We look for knowledgeable, reliable childcarers who can demonstrate a long-term commitment to childcare and babysitting.

Our thorough selection and vetting process includes:

  • A detailed online application form
  • Cross-checking of all paperwork
  • Contacting previous childcare employers to verify references
  • A face-to-face video interview with a member of our experienced Recruitment Team
