Date night sitter recommendations-Dublin

TeAmoMiAmor

Hi! I'm relatively new to the dublin area and am trying to find a good source to get a date night sitter that I could use. I know there is care.com and sittercity but I don't really want to pay the membership fee (on top of paying a sitter) to find someone we might we use once every 6 weeks or so. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

Have you tried posting something on the OSU job boards? That might get a few prospects.

I hadn't thought of that, that's a great idea! Thanks!

Check with your daycare (or ask a friend who uses a daycare). Usually the ladies who work in them also will sit outside working hours. They have already gone through screening so I would feel comfortable using one of them.

I'd be careful before doing that. A lot of day care centers/pre-schools prohibit parents from soliciting the teachers for babysitting jobs outside of the day care. Check the handbook before you ask.
