Babysitting Resources

Mothers Club Babysitting List
The Mothers Club maintains a list of babysitters as a service to its members. In order to be placed on the list, prospective babysitters must visit one of our evening meetings to fill out a questionnaire and meet club members. The list is periodically distributed to members via email as new candidates are added. The entire list is updated in September, January and May. For more information, contact our babysitting list coordinator, Sonia Frischemeier.

Hiring UNC-Chapel Hill Students
University Career Services at UNC-Chapel Hill maintains a database of part-time jobs that can only be accessed by students. People interested in hiring a UNC student can post a babysitting position with University Career Services free of charge. To place an ad, please contact Emily Strader at estrader at email.unc.edu or call 843-0844. You can also post a job directly at careers.unc.edu.
