Q. Is SitterTime.com a
babysitter referral service?
A. No. You must already know the parents or sitters that you communicate
with on SitterTime.com.
Q. What if I'm
dissatisfied with my babysitter?
A. Simply delete that
babysitter from your sitter list. SitterTime.com cannot assume
any responsibility for the behavior of your babysitters. These are
babysitters that you choose entirely on your own, as everyone has
always done.
Q. What if I want a
particular sitter for say, Saturday night? Can I select which sitter
I want?
A. Check your SitterTime
calendar for Saturday. All available and busy sitters are shown.
If your favorite sitter shows available, just click to reserve.
If he/she does not show as busy, call them on the phone. If they
then say they can, you've got it, and make sure they mark themselves
as busy for that day. If they can't, they should also mark
themselves as busy, and you'll have to get someone else. Select
from another available sitter, submit a request, or call all the
non-busy sitters on your list. Any of these non-busy sitters that
can't sit for you should mark themselves as busy for that day.
Q. I just registered with
SitterTime. How do I get my babysitters signed up with me?
A. If your sitters are
already signed up with SitterTime.com, simply ask them for their
user names. If they are not already signed up, ask them to do so
and get their user names. Enter those names into your sitter list.
The next time they log on, they will be given the opportunity to
confirm you as one of the parents that they sit for. After this is
done, you and your sitters can arrange your babysitting dates
through SitterTime.com
Q. What if one of my sitters
is not on the Internet?
A. You'll just have make
arrangements with them the old fashioned way until they get on
the net.

Q. What if I don't want to
sit for a particular kid anymore?
A. Simply remove the parents
of that kid from your parents list.
From parents of babysitters -
Q. Is SitterTime.com safe
for our child to use to arrange babysitting dates?
A. Using SitterTime.com is
just as safe as the system your child uses right now. The only
information we have that is unique to your child is his/hers email
address, which we will not release to anyone without a court order.
Your child will be dealing with the same parents that they deal
with now. It is up to you, the babysitter's parents, to insure
the safety of your child while babysitting, just as it is without
SitterTime.com.
