"We have used Southern Sitters a few times for date nights and absolutely love it!! The app is so easy to utilize, and I love that you can choose to have the company pair you with a sitter or let you choose on your own. Our babysitter has been professional, on time, and great with our little one (who is typically pretty hesitant around most people). We will definitely continue to use Southern Sitters!!"
"We used Southern Sitters for the first time recently. I was so impressed with the quick response. Grace was just wonderful! My 3 boys adored her and wanted her to come back!"
"We are so grateful to have Sidney babysit for us a few times during our son's wedding weekend in Tennessee. She was on time, super friendly, and flexible about a few last minute changes. We didn't worry at all during our events."

Date Night Sitter Placement
Southern Sitters offers an ongoing evening sitter placement for families looking to book the same babysitter on an ongoing “date night” style basis. If you are looking to find a consistent babysitter for 1-5 nights a month, this service is for you! Think of a nanny placement service, but for your dream date night sitter! When you initiate this placement service, our team considers your needs and preferences to share three exceptional, fully vetted candidates with your family.
You will be given immediate access to interview your candidates and choose the best option for your family. That sitter will then perform an in-person meet and greet or trial babysitting session with your family. Once you choose to move forward with this caregiver, our team will reserve that sitter for your family for the desired ongoing dates! We charge a $150.00 placement fee and enroll your family in an ongoing $65.00 per month babysitter membership. This membership includes access to your date night sitter and unlimited babysitter bookings!
The Babysitter Booking Process
You can now use the Southern Sitters app or web booking platform to book Southern Sitters babysitters for your upcoming sitter needs! Our sitters are interviewed by childcare professionals, complete extensive training, are CPR certified, have years of experience, are background checked, have strong references, and hold multiple childcare certifications! We hold our team members to the highest standards of excellence.
When booking through the app, you can indicate the rate per hour you’d like to pay your sitter. We will match you with a sitter within that rate! Your sitter will also message you a rate confirmation.
When you are matched with a sitter for an upcoming date, you will see their bio, certifications, picture, contact information, and more. We understand that every family has different preferences and needs. Please feel free to include any special notes or preferences in the “notes” box when booking! We can make a sitter switch at any time prior to your reservation for no additional charge.
Rebooking is simple! “Favorite” past sitters though the app to easily rebook them. We also offer ongoing date-night sitter placement services and nanny placement services! Southern Sitters must be rebooked through our system. Our team is here to assist you!
