Recurring · Brooklyn
Stop "finding a sitter". Just have one.
The families we work with longest aren't the date-night people calling on a Wednesday. They're the ones who locked Tuesday afternoon and Saturday evening months ago and haven't thought about "a sitter" since.
The marketplace problem
Different sitter every week is not a feature. It's the bug.
The marketplaces sell variety. Hundreds of sitters! Pick from a catalog! Different one every Tuesday! For most Brooklyn families that's exhausting — every week is a new person at the door, a new bedtime negotiation, a new round of "and where do you keep the bibs?"
We're two sitters. That's the whole roster. By week three, your kids stop asking who's coming. By week six, the sitter's pre-empting bedtime stalling tactics before they happen. That's the whole pitch.
Common shapes a recurring slot takes
Tuesday + Thursday afternoons
3pm pickup, homework, dinner, gone by 6:30 when you're back. ~7 hours/week.
Standing Saturday night
6 to 11 every Saturday. Date night without the texting. ~5 hours/week.
Weekday mornings, baby-and-toddler
9am to 1pm three weekdays. While you work from the bedroom. ~12 hours/week.
One long weekly block
Friday 4pm to 10pm. The single shift that resets the week. ~6 hours/week.
Whatever the shape: same sitter, same time, locked. If your week changes, we adjust together — but the default is the slot stays.
Pricing
Standard hourly rate. No recurring premium.
Some agencies charge more for recurring slots — "commitment pricing." We don't. Recurring families pay the same hourly rate as one-off bookings, and we ask for payment per session (cash, Venmo, or Zelle) or weekly batched, your choice.
Honest constraint
Two sitters, one calendar. Recurring slots fill and stay filled.
We can hold roughly 8–12 recurring families before the calendar is full. When it's full, we tell you and put you on a waitlist — we don't over-promise hours we don't have. Reach out early; the popular weeknight evening slots go first.
