INTRODUCTION

Hannah occasionally babysits Ellen’s two girls. Most of the time, she needs to start drawing horses and unicorns right away.

ELLEN (PARENT):

“The nice thing about Hannah is that she’s so calm. She gets along with both girls and she’s very easy going. When she’s here, they have no problems with her. It’s nice to have a babysitter that comes over often. Hannah knows where everything is and hardly needs to ask about anything. She always checks the bedtimes with us and is confident enough to find her own way around the house, so when we’re gone, she doesn’t call us for small things. When she’s here, we know that we don’t have anything to worry about.”

ELLEN (PARENT):

“Nora and Felicia always ask Hannah if she can draw with them, because she can draw really well. They always ask for horses and unicorns. Hannah’s being put to work almost every time she comes over. I wish I could draw with the girls, but it’s so busy that I hardly have the time to sit and relax. That’s why it’s great that Hannah can do this with them. At the same time, Hannah and the girls have something special they can share together.”

HANNAH (BABYSITTER):

“Most of the time, I babysit in the evening. Before bedtime, we play a little game or they want me to draw. We usually sit at the table and all three of us are drawing. Mostly, they want me to draw horses or unicorns; I like those as well, so I don’t mind at all. And most of the time, when I give the drawings to them, I get theirs in return.”

WHY PARENTS PRAISE SITLY

How has a great sitter changed the lives of these families?

Olivia: “When Amber came over for an interview, she almost immediately started to play with Zoé and Noah.”
Rachel: “Anne always sends me photos so I know how things are going. I really like that.”
Sarah: ”Because Eliza babysits one evening a week, we have time for each other again.”
Heather: “Because Michaela picks up Jason from school, he no longer has to go to after-school care.”
