Press Release Babysitters4u.

New Childcare Facility Database.

Babysitters4u is now extending their service to provide a nationwide database of Childcare Facilities. This service is provided absolutely free to all Preschool and Afterschool Centres, Kindergartens Early Learning Centres, Nanny Agencies and in fact any business providing Childcare.
This is an exciting opportunity to promote their business at no cost.

Childcare Facilities register for free and have the ability to create their own webpage with their logo, full details of their service, facilities, staff, hours of operation, what makes it special, in fact anything they want to write as they create it. As well as this the Childcare Facility will have the ability to place Situations Vacant which Babysitters4u childcarers can view.
This gives them tremendous exposure to the large and continuously growing number of people using the Babysitters4u website.

Parents now have the opportunity to search for not only private childcare options but professional as well. Parents will be able to search anywhere in New Zealand for a Childcare Facility that meets their needs.

Babysitters4u is a new an innovative way of finding child care in today’s busy world. Started last November by Sandy and Jerry Sharp after years of difficulties in finding child care for their three children, the company has taken off with over 1800 Babysitters and Nannies and thousands of Parents registered with Babysitters4u taking advantage of the service so far.
Babysitters4u is a web based service ( www.babysitters4u.co.nz ) which is completely free for all to use.
Babysitters and Nannies register online for free by filling out a comprehensive profile with details on such things as age, location, qualifications, driving licence whether they smoke, ages of children they are happy looking after, hours of work and so on. They also write a personal description about themselves to give parents an idea of their personality. There is online help and tips to assist babysitters with this process and also hints on how to be a good babysitter. Once their profile has been checked by Babysitters4u it goes into the database accessible by parents.

Parents after a short registration process, can search for Babysitters and Nannies in their area and then email suitable carers via the website. They can also post a work offer which Babysitters and Nannies can read by searching the database for work in their area. There is absolutely no charge for this service. There is online help for parents with a guide on interviewing, how to brief your babysitter and a printable checklist. Once Babysitters4u has introduced the two parties the rest is up to them.

“Because we are free to use, the growth of the company is amazing” says Jerry Sharp co director of Babysitters4u. “There are obviously a huge number of child carers looking for work and parents needing childcare. What we do is put the 2 in contact with each other for no charge. A lot of people can’t afford the costs of nanny agencies or advertising. There are no booking or agency fees, minimum charges or advertising costs. You simply pay for the work the child carer does.”

“With the difficulties being experienced by many parents getting into overcrowded preschools and kindergartens the website is helping many parents find alternatives. Some parents we have had feedback from have been desperate to find suitable child care so they can continue working to support their family.” says co director Sandy Sharp. “Perhaps the government initiatives for 20 hours of free childcare should be extended to cover childcare in the home”

The service is available the length and breadth of the country to anyone who can access the internet. If you are looking for work as a Babysitter or Nanny, need a Child carer or Childcare Facility or are a Childcare Facility wanting to advertise for free, www.babysitters4u.co.nz is the place for you.
