Sitter questions

Frequently asked questions about becoming a sitter

Review common questions about sitter opportunities, hotel babysitting expectations, event childcare, payment, dress code, and safety rules.

1. How often do babysitting opportunities become available?

Destination Sitters is a well-known company that many parents reach out to for their childcare needs. By having your availability up-to-date on our calendar and keeping open communication with the office if your availability changes, you should be able to secure multiple sits throughout the month.

2. Do we have to stay in the hotel room while on the sit?

We all want our young travelers to have a great vacation experience while you are with them. With parents’ permission, you may leave the hotel room and go on adventures throughout the hotel. Keep in mind that safety of the child is the top priority.

3. Are we allowed to leave the hotel?

Some hotels do provide the opportunity for mini trips away from the hotel. With parents’ written permission, you are allowed to leave the hotel, but you are NEVER allowed to drive the children anywhere. Did somebody say Disney Monorail Trip, hotel shuttles, UBER, town cars or taxi with the parents’ written permission?

4. How do sitters get paid?

Once you return all required documents to the office, you will receive payment.

5. Is there a dress code?

Yes. You are to wear the Destination Sitters’ polo shirt and ID tag identifying you as a sitter for Destination Sitters. This is for the parents’ security (so they know that you are the sitter they booked) as well as yours (so the hotel/other guests don’t wonder why a stranger is with the children). Your other clothes should be on the conservative side.

“I really like working with Destination Sitters. They care about the sitters and the clients the sitters work for. The hotels are vetted and I feel very safe. It’s great that you can work for parents when you want to and not work when you are busy.”
