A friend of mine is looking for a babysitter for her two young boys (2 yrs & 3 1/2 mo). Where is a good place/website to look? She is a server, so doesn't have "traditional" hours. I suggested to her a drop-in care center, but she said she can't afford the regular rate and they aren't open on Sundays. I also suggested looking on care.com, but she mentioned they won't help her b/c she has a dwi on her record.
Any suggestions would be great!!
P.S. The oldest boy's father helps out some and the youngest boy's father passed away earlier this year.
Does she belong to a church? Most churches have a list of high school students that babysit - the students on the list are usually involved in the church and/or someone that is known by members of the church.
My SIL found a great sitter by posting at the local university.
I found a great sitter by posting at a local college. I didn't even have to go in, I just called the school's career/job center and told them what I was looking for. I had several calls from interested students and a few interviews and ended up with an awesome girl who was with our family for close to two years.
I got a great babysitter's name from a preschool teacher.
Try the local high school.
There is a web site called Day Care Bear, she might find some providers there.

We used a local domestic care company that vetted and hired people for all kinds of domestic care.

I work they sitter city. Not sure why her having a dwi should matter when looking for a sitter.
