There's An App For That



There's an app for that. Words that could not be any truer than in the society and day in age that we live today. Because in reality, we are a technology driven world. We strive to learn more, access more, connect more, and be more efficient. Apps help us do that. Believe it or not. They allows us the ability to be quicker in a sense, organized, and successful.

Today, I will tell you about a specific app that is geared to parents and sitters in hopes of helping eliminate some time and effort involved in finding a sitter, paying a sitter, and communicating with a sitter.

I had the opportunity to test out the app myself and was very impressed by the different options available. I liked that I had the ability to create a designated "sitter need" and send them out to all the sitters in my saved list. From there, you are also able to book a sitter and even directly pay them. Which by the way eliminates the need for having cash on hand {something I rarely have these days}.

And for the sitters? There are great benefits from the app for you as well. For one, most importantly, you get paid right away. Two, you can see all the different jobs available and based on your schedule, be able to book quickly. And lastly, everything is nice and organized for you so that you don't overbook and are able to make it to your jobs on time without forgetting where you booked and with who.

The Sitterati app is fairly new so they are always looking for great feedback from parents and sitters out there. Be sure to test it out and leave them your thoughts and what you think about the options available.

At the end of the day, I'm getting older, and technology is getting wiser. Which means, I need to always stay up to speed with all the greatest out there. Because, lets face it, those sitters are often times teenagers, and you know, they probably would not want that "old" mom calling them while they are out with their friends. Send them a sitter message instead, they would say.

And well, the great thing about it? There's an app for that.
