PRLog -- An innovator in "Seeker" and "Sitter"-finding, SolidSitters, LLC, announced today it will cater to a niche group of parents eager to admit "I want above-average in a babysitter" and to high-achieving teens deserving of quality, fair-paying, extracurricular babysitting opportunities. Virtual in its structure, SolidSitters (www.solidsitters.com)
serves as a hub where families and teens committed to "Raising the Bar" in family childcare connect. SolidSitters is the first of its kind to provide deeper-layer, character-focused screening for all members. The company shaves hours off the “finding” process, includes a summary of references nearly impossible to otherwise obtain, and offers the opportunity to give eligible parents and teens Gift Memberships (http://www.solidsitters.com/

.
Seeking to lead by example, SolidSitters’
company tone is set by a vibrant, interactive, easy-to-navigate website featuring a content-rich blog accessible to the public. SolidSitters also reveals company values through: Substantial return for payment; putting more control in members’ hands through nominal,
a la carte-style fees for services and products; teen advocacy; and transparency (you don't have to sign up anywhere as a "ticket in" to review company services).
Having experienced the negative result of "just not knowing someone on the necessary levels" when hiring a past babysitter, master-level social worker and founder (
http://www.solidsitters.com/founder.html), Amie Martin, states, "It took a long time to recover from that experience. I want parents like us to be able to say, unapologetically, 'We want to be able to leave the house without our children on occasion, guilt-free, and we want to know our kiddos are in quality and capable hands when we do." When asked why their company is confident their screening process gets to the heart of subjective qualities like integrity and character, Amie explains, "We don't have crystal balls, and we don't claim to. But our team's deep-research, accomplished professional backgrounds and innovative data mining algorithm allow us to draw to surface indicators of character traits you just can't fake."
Unlike similar online venues (
http://solidsitters.com/compare.html) that stretch to capture a consumer audience of anyone and everyone with services as diverse as eldercare, pet care and tutoring, SolidSitters is the only online sitter-finder providing services and products specifically designed for niche consumers. The company's unique service structure also saves members hours of browsing through profiles that aren't relevant or helpful.
In a focus group, Michelle Finley, mom from Columbia, Missouri, commented, "Your sitter service sounds incredible. I started hiring babysitters after we moved to a new city. I used them rarely at first. A service like yours would have been especially helpful!"
As social dynamics continue to shift in a fast-paced, technology-focused world, it is more important than ever to really
know the people allowed into one another's homes and lives. SolidSitters provides a unique, affordable, easy way to help meet the changing needs for additional safeguards that acknowledge whole-person traits. A new online presence, the company is growing daily to help meet the needs of members spanning across every major region in the U.S.
