How do you find a trustworthy babysitter? Real tips and stories
Hey everyone, I’ve been trying to find a reliable babysitter for my little one, and I’ll admit — it’s harder than I expected. I mean, you see all these profiles online, but how do you really know who’s good and safe? I read an article recently that goes over how to find a trustworthy babysitter, with things like checking references, interviewing candidates, and observing how they interact with your child: Top 10 Interesting Movies on Netflix. It gave me some good ideas for questions to ask and things to watch for. Curious — how did you handle babysitter searches, especially the first time?

Good topic! I usually ask for at least two references from past families and check them — not just getting a phone number, but actually calling and asking how things went. One family I talked to mentioned the sitter was great with routines and even helped with bedtime stories, which totally fit what I needed. My kids warmed up fast too, so it was a win. It definitely feels more secure when you hear real experiences from people you trust.
