In South Australia, the "Children's Services Act" of 1985 defines our service as a 'babysitting agency'. This requires us to interview every candidate, check paperwork and record every babysitting appointment. If we did this we wouldn't be an affordable internet-based introduction site! There is similar legislation in Tasmania which also prevents our service from operating.
So, unfortunately, until this out-dated legislation is reviewed, Find A Babysitter cannot operate in both South Australia and Tasmania.
Testimonials
I had resigned myself to never being able to find anyone to quite replace my previous nanny of 6 years. However within a week of having posted my ad on the site I had over 10 serious applications... I had at least three outstanding candidates to choose from and am very happy with the outcome!
