Service Overview

Voted Best of the Bay, Best of South Tampa & Local Neighborhood Favorite. This child care option is wonderful for all types of sporadic needs, including date nights and occasional here and their needs, such as a few hours. Majority of our sitters have class commitments and/or day time careers, during the weekdays. Therefore, this is not intended for several full day or weekly care. We unfortunately do not have the bandwidth for full days. If you are seeking weekly care (same days and times each week- this would be a different level of service- called Nanny Find) We are the only local agency to have an innovative, easy to use, app! Once signed up, you will receive an email to access the web app, to view sitter bios, submit sitter requests and so much more.

For sporadic babysitting needs, we currently service Tampa Bay and many neighboring locations. For any other locations, please contact us. This membership is great for here and there needs, only.

Once you sign up you will receive an email of how to activate your web app account, which can always be found at my.sohositters.com
