Helping Westchester Parents Find Safe, Last-Minute Childcare — Without the Stress

If you’ve ever had a sitter cancel at the last minute, juggled a work meeting with a toddler on your lap, or postponed a long-overdue date night because you couldn’t find childcare… you’re not alone.

I’m a mom who’s been there — and it’s exactly why I launched SeekingSitters Westchester.

We’re a local babysitting service that connects families with background-screened, CPR and First Aid-certified, and fully vetted professional sitters for everything from backup care and after-school help to evenings and weekends. Each sitter is hand-selected and personally approved by me, so families feel confident knowing their children are in safe, experienced hands.

But this isn’t just about babysitting. It’s about community.

I’ve seen how isolating and overwhelming parenting can feel — especially when you don’t have a reliable support system. That’s why I also created a free local group on Nextdoor called The Westchester Family Room. It’s a space where parents, guardians, and caregivers can share tips, ask questions, and support one another without judgment (or spam). Because sometimes what you need most isn’t just a sitter — it’s a village.

I’m proud to be building one here in Westchester, and I’d love for you to be part of it.
