ATLSITTERS are requested directly by our members, for a specific time and date. Sitters have the flexibility to confirm or decline the job based on their availability.

Another option for sitters to confirm jobs is through our Consistent Care option. This is perfect for sitters who like to plan their schedule in advance, with one family.

The last option, is for sitters to claim jobs from our Waitlist!

Question 15

Q: Will I sit for a new family each time I confirm a job?

A: It just depends!

If you are taking appointments through Casual Care, you could work with a handful of families, or a different family each time.
