Interview questions, red flags, reference checks, emergency docs. All of it.
Finding a babysitter is stressful. Vetting one properly is even more so — because most of us don't know exactly what to ask, and we feel awkward asking it. SafeSitter™ takes the discomfort out of the process by giving you everything you need to make a confident decision.
The Interview Questions You Actually Need
Babysitter interview prep
I'm interviewing babysitter candidates for my [ages] kids. Help me create a comprehensive interview guide including:
1. 8-10 interview questions that reveal reliability, experience, and how they handle difficult situations with kids this age
2. Scenario-based questions (e.g. 'What would you do if...')
3. What ideal answers look like vs. red flag responses
4. 3 questions to ask their references
The Reference Check Script
Most people call references and ask "How was she?" and get a glowing answer that tells them nothing. A reference check is only useful if you ask the right questions.
Reference check script
Write me a reference check script for a babysitter candidate. The questions should be specific enough to get useful information, including: reliability, how they handled difficult situations, how kids responded to them, and whether the reference would hire them again. Include the key question that gets the most honest answer.
The Household Information Document
Babysitter briefing document
Create a babysitter information document for my household. Include sections for:
- Emergency contacts (with blanks to fill in)
- Children's information (names, ages, medical info, allergies)
- House rules and routines
- Meal and snack options
- Bedtime routine
- Screen time and device policy
- What to do in various emergencies
- Nearest hospital and our address formatted for 911
Format it cleanly so I can print or share it digitally.
