SITTER also referred to as a temporary nanny, provides care on an occasional basis. These ladies are available for an evening, weekend, or for sick child back up care. Many new moms will bring in help for the first few weeks they are home with a newborn. The sitters we refer have been carefully background screened, personally interviewed and reference checked. Many have been with our agency for several years.
