Sitters Place is a new local network of babysitters and nannies for Sonoma County parents. It is locally owned and operated and designed for local parents!

Check out some of our sitters: http://www.sittersplace.com/sitters.html

My friend Danielle and I started Sitters Place just a few months ago. We are both moms of little kids and we both were born and raised in Sonoma County.

Thanks for looking!

Here is a nice review we got recently:

For the event I put on, we had 37 children under the age of 8, with 9 care providers I contacted and hired 4 through SittersPlace (out of about 7 who expressed interest in the email you sent out.) All 4 of the SittersPlace sitters were excellent; they had great references, were easy to work with, lots of experience, and treated the children well. We sent home 37 tired kids, 9 tired care providers, and dozens of happy parents. Overall it was a great experience and I'd highly recommend any of the 4 sitters I hired.

Thanks for all of your help with this; using SittersPlace really made
my job much smoother and helped me find well-qualified sitters for the
evening!

SittersPlace.com is putting on an event that is perfect for parents looking for a daycare, preschool, or other activities for your kids.

Childcare Resources Expo (http://www.sittersplace.com/expo.php)
May 16, 2009 - 10am to 4pm
Coddingtown Mall, Santa Rosa

* Interview and get information from preschools and daycare centers from all areas of Sonoma County
* Learn about local activities to do with your children
* Find local financial childcare aid
* Meet local babysitters and nannies
* Free admission
* Receive $100's in raffle prizes from local businesses

Finding a qualified preschool or daycare center that meets your needs is time consuming and stressful. Often it takes days or weeks of your precious time to locate and drive to each school, interview directors and staff, and try to get a feel for a school's curriculum and fees.

If you are a working parent who is short on time or you are looking for a quality preschool or daycare center within a certain price range, this expo is a must see!

If you would like to be a part of this event with your child-related business, PM me for more information.

Our expo sponsors are: 4C's, University of Sports, Kidgits, and of course SittersPlace.com
