How It Works

Simple, safe, and straightforward for both families and sitters

1. Create Profile

Families and teen sitters create profiles. Sitters under 18 complete a guardian consent process.

2. Verify & Match

Under-18 sitters use guardian consent; adult sitters submit TrustLine registration for manual review.

3. Book & Pay

Easy scheduling, secure payments, and real-time updates for peace of mind

Safety First, Always

We take every precaution to ensure a safe experience for everyone

Guardian Consent for Minors

Under-18 sitters use a guardian consent link with an electronic signature. This is not a criminal background check or government-ID check.

TrustLine for Adult Sitters

Sitters aged 18 and older submit their TrustLine registration for manual review. A TrustLine badge means the registration has been confirmed.

In-App Messaging

All communication happens within the app for transparency

Real-Time Check-Ins

Location sharing and periodic check-ins during sessions

Review System

Detailed reviews and ratings from verified families

Emergency Support

24/7 emergency hotline and instant support access
