How it works
Tell us about your kids, your neighborhood, and what you're looking for in a sitter.
See profiles, intro videos, references, and real availability from vetted local college students.
Confirm in the app, pay securely, and head out knowing your kids are in great hands.
We found our regular sitter in 20 minutes. She's a WCU education major who my kids now ask for by name. This is exactly what West Chester moms have needed.
We're not Care.com. We're a small local team obsessed with one thing: making sure the sitter at your door is someone you can actually trust.
Every sitter must sign up with a valid .edu email from WCU, Villanova, or another local college.
Each sitter completes a one-on-one video interview with our team before being approved.
We contact childcare references directly through the platform and verify every response.
Sitters complete Stripe identity verification before they can receive any payout.
Every approved sitter records a short intro video so you can see who you're booking before you commit.
After every booking, families leave reviews that are visible to other parents in the community.
Every family submits a government-issued ID before they can book. You'll always know who you're sitting for.
For students
Set your own rate, choose your own families, and build a side income that actually fits around your class schedule.

A note from the founder
"I built WCSitters because I was tired of cold-calling strangers off Care.com and hoping for the best. Every family in West Chester deserves a sitter they can actually trust — and every college student who loves kids deserves a reliable way to earn."
Danielle Seeling · Founder, WCSitters · West Chester mom of two
