MomSquawk couldn’t exist without its sponsors, so we tend to like them. But we really like Care.com. Not too long ago, we were looking for a babysitter, and it was a hassle, as new parents know. Our first thought was, “I wish there was a website that would do background checks on local babysitters and tell you when they were available. That would be really cool.”

Flash forward to a couple weeks ago when we were contacted by Care.com. In their own words:

Care.com is a service connecting families with a network of local babysitters, nannies, senior care providers, tutors, housekeepers, and pet sitters nationwide. Membership plans start at just $10 per month for our annual subscription and include FREE background checks, robust caregiver profiles, video interviews and more.

So we checked out their site - it’s easy to use and just as advertised - a way to get quality care for your kids with a minimum of hassle. Just click on your city and you’re provided with a map of all the available care givers. Click on a name, and up comes all the info you want to see about them. It’s really slick.

So take a look - we think you’ll like it. Care.com has agreed to give a complimentary three-month premium membership to the first MomSquawker to email us at squawk@momsquawk.com, so there’s no time like the present.
