Meet your Sitter
I personally work for you to find the best sitter match for your family. After the sitter is assigned you can meet her virtually and even chat online to ask questions or give details about your family.
Our goal is to make the entire process as seamless as possible for you and we handle the rest!
Activities and Fun
Your sitter will arrive at your home with activities and games prepared for your children's preferences and ages. We have seen how exciting it is when the professional sitter arrives on your doorstep with their bag full of activities.
When you book a regular event, talk to me about preschool and school aged activities that can be purchased on a monthly basis.

Member Testimonials
Our sitters have been so great! Thank you so much for always providing such great service!
Thank you for providing such a wonderful service to Lubbock. You can't imagine how much we appreciate you.
Every sitter we have had in our home from SeekingSitters has been amazing! I wouldn't trust anyone else.
We had had the opportunity to use a few different sitters in our home and each time I am amazed at how professional they are. All the worries I had when I signed up have disappeared.
I can't tell you how many times SeekingSitters has saved my sanity! With my husband working out of town for months at a time, I am so thankful to have someone to call when I need a break! I recommend SeekingSitters to everyone I meet!
This is absolutely the best service around. Our sitters are amazing and we have never been happier!
We have no family in the Lubbock area so when we discovered SeekingSitters we were overjoyed. This is such a lifesaver. The fact that I can book a qualified sitter for my kids without being worried about their safety is amazing! It's so simple and so safe.
My friends are always asking me "How do you have time to take evening classes and do all the extra things you do to take care of yourself?" My answer "SeekingSitters". I seriously don't know what I would do without you! Thank you!
We have always had such great experiences. Every time a sitter has come, it has been fantastic!
I so appreciate Julie and the service she provides. This service make my life stress free because of how efficient and dependable they have been.
Last weekend we had another sitter and when we got home I told my husband "Man, she was wonderful". His response was "we always say that!". It's true! SeekingSitters is the perfect solution to finding a sitter when you don't have a lot of babysitter options or are tired of your babysitting having other plans. We love this service!
We are so excited about this site! Our personal babysitter had to cancel at the last minute due to an illness, so we requested a sitter from SeekingSitters and within 5 minutes Miss Kaitlyn picked up the job and called to confirm. We had hesitations about how our daughter would react to a stranger, but she actually woke up from her nap and stood up and went right to Kaitlyn! Our daughter felt comfortable in an instant! Kaitlyn was great with her and kept up with us on how our daughter was doing throughout the night! Our next date night we will be requesting Kaitlyn, she was so polite and our daughter loved her. Thank you!
We have had so many great sitters even able to manage our daughter's diabetes. We appreciate the attention SeekingSitters has given our family
Ann was terrific. Our two boys thought she was one of the best sitters we have hired.
To be honest we were very hesitant using a service like this because, as a mom, I wanted to be sure I knew who my kids were playing with. After using the service 2 times now I can say that I would recommend SeekingSitters to EVERYONE! Love, Love, Love it!
I was very nervous to leave my toddler with a sitter and Marissa was perfect! She made me feel comfortable and knew just what I needed, and my son loved her!
