How it works CB Babysitters is a babysitting referral service that puts you in contact with a local babysitter. To request a sitter, fill out the babysitting request form. Please let us know how many children you have, their ages, where you are staying and the dates and times of your request. One of our coordinators will contact you within 24-hours to discuss your request. Once a sitter is appointed, you can expect a phone call from them to discuss the fine details. They will come to your lodging accommodations to care for your children. They bring games and activities with them so the kids can stay entertained. If you desire, your sitter can take your kids outside to play. We know all the fun parks and kid-friendly venues to have a great time!

CB Babysitters is not a nanny service or a childcare provider. CB Babysitters is a babysitting referral service who will put you in touch with a local independent babysitter who has been background checked, referenced checked and deemed qualified. Ultimately, it is your responsibility to approve the babysitter to care for your children. All payments and arrangements are made directly between the parent and the babysitter.
