TotSpot parents (and all parents for that matter) are a busy bunch. To the extent we can, we are going try and highlight decent articles from around the web that might be useful and save some time. To wit:
Mashable’s Mark Dykeman does a pretty good job reviewing sites that help parents find a babysitter online.
Included in his list are dedicated offerings:
NannyFlower, CanadianSitter.ca (Canada-only), Babysitters.com, and Sittercity
and standard posting boards:
Not to quibble too much, but there were a few sites Mark missed:
Care.com (we’re friendly with some people there), Babysitters4hire.com (Dr. Phil-endorsed), and 4Sitters.com

Hi there and thanks for linking to my online babysitting sites article. There’s no question that there were probably dozens of sites that I didn’t mention in the article. I didn’t intend to say it was a comprehensive overview; rather, I was just trying to introduce the concept of looking for an online babysitter to the Mashable.com audience.
Thanks!
