Try Sitters – Britain’s favourite babysitting service – and reclaim your social life!

Thousands of busy parents across the UK have discovered the secret to an active and stress-free social life with Sitters babysitting agency. Whether you need an evening babysitter for a few hours, or occasional daytime childcare cover – Sitters.co.uk has a dedicated team of professionally qualified child carers – even at a few hours’ notice.

Uniquely, Sitters.co.uk offers parents a complete service (not to be confused with the ‘do-it-yourself’ online childcare directories). With Sitters, you tell them when and where you need childcare and they’ll find you an experienced child carer, suited to the needs of your family (all with the convenience of secure online booking or a single text message). And unlike the online childcare directories, all Sitters child carers have been rigorously vetted and personally interviewed – so that you don’t have to!

Founded by parents Lucie and Stephen Allen, Sitters.co.uk is now Britain's favourite evening and daytime childcare provider. During 2006 Sitters merged with Childminders of London (established in 1967 and London's most successful babysitting service for more than 30 years). The service has now run continuously for over 45 years and has more experience than anyone in selecting suitable child carers and arranging evening and daytime childcare.

Stephen Allen (Sitters Chairman and Dad of 4) said, "The original idea of a nationwide network of professional babysitters sprung from our own need for reliable, experienced child carers to babysit for our two boys. We found we needed babysitters both when we were at home in Buckinghamshire and when visiting Dorset at weekends. Today, we have a nationwide network of many thousands of carefully vetted, experienced child carers across the UK”.

You can register for free at www.sitters.co.uk and you’ll have immediate access to professional childcare whenever and wherever you need it. You pay nothing at all until after your first babysitting booking is complete – guaranteed. Sitters agency fees are made up of a quarterly membership (just over £1 per week), and a nominal booking fee (you pay the babysitter direct at the end of the booking). So - if you have a date in the diary next month, next week, or even just a few hours away – why not give Sitters a try and reclaim your social life!
