In Need of a Local Babysitter?

Filed Under: babysitting, motherhood // February 25, 2020

This post is sponsored by Bambino but all opinions are my own. 

The last time Tim and I went on a date was … when we traveled hundreds of miles away to Colorado.

Currently, our biggest issue is one I think many parents can relate to: we don’t know many people locally and thus, don’t know who to trust with babysitting our kids locally. 

Of course, we can have my mom come or bring them to Brooklyn to her but that’s not always reasonable. And it wouldn’t be feasible for a last minute quick date to a local restaurant or show.

I think I might have just found a solution for the problem, though: Bambino Sitters. 

Bambino is a babysitting app that helps families find, book and pay trusted, neighborhood sitters using their personal and social networks.   

Rather than searching through a vast database of strangers, Bambino uses recommendations from friends and neighbors to help families find sitters that live down the street and around the corner. Using community feedback, comprehensive safety checks, sitter performance metrics, and a proprietary matching algorithm, Bambino helps match the right sitter with the right family every time.

It’s also great for people who’d love to make some extra money because it’s a great support model for babysitters. 

The way Bambino works is simple: when you search, babysitters will be populated by the terms requested (i.e. hours); babysitters you’ve previously used and friends have used will be displayed towards top; select a few that you like and a babysitter will get the request; and based upon responses of their availability the parent will then choose a babysitter. Once the sit is complete, pay the babysitter directly through the app!
