The candidate fills out our online application and provides a profile and written bio, all of which come together to provide a rich picture of the candidate. All profiles are reviewed by our team, and we reserve the right to decline any candidate who doesn’t present themselves appropriately.
Our background vetting process is more than just a commercial background check. It has been carefully structured to determine not only whether the candidate has ever committed a crime – but, perhaps more importantly, whether they’re ever likely to, and includes:
- National Criminal Search
- County-level Criminal Search
- 50-State Sex Offender Search
- Social Security Number Trace
- Global Watchlist Search
All sitter candidates must pass our skills test, so we can be sure they know the basic first aid and safety rules for kids.
The candidate is then given a behavioral profiling test based on applied psychology to detect any indication or tendency toward untrustworthy behavior.
Once a candidate has completed this process, they're invited to join our platform – but it doesn't stop there. We are notified on an ongoing basis of any changes in our sitters' records. If anything comes up, we suspend or remove the sitter from the platform.
