Mothers Club Babysitter’s List

The Mothers Club maintains a list of babysitters as a service to its members.  The list consists of candidates who have completed an online questionnaire.  We have not interviewed all of the sitters personally or screened them beyond this so we strongly encourage you to interview, check references, screen prospective sitters and verify the information listed prior to hiring them.  The entire list is updated in September, January and May. For more information, contact our babysitting list coordinator.
