Once you create a free account, you can browse sitter profiles filtered by location, availability, and experience. Each profile includes a bio, photo, care specialties, hourly rate, and church affiliation. You can also message sitters directly through the platform before booking.

After finding a sitter you'd like to work with, we recommend scheduling a free meet and greet first. Once you're comfortable, you can submit a booking request directly through the platform. The sitter will confirm availability, and the session is locked in once payment is authorized.

All payments are processed securely through the platform. You'll see the sitter's hourly rate clearly listed on their profile. Payment is authorized at the time of booking and processed after the session is completed. We do not share your full payment details with sitters.

Cancellation terms are agreed upon between you and the sitter at the time of booking. We encourage all parties to communicate promptly if plans change. Platform service fees are non-refundable once a booking is confirmed. If you have an urgent situation, contact us through our Contact Us page and we'll do our best to assist.

After a completed session, you'll have the opportunity to leave a review directly on your sitter's profile. Reviews help other families make informed decisions and help great sitters grow their presence on the platform. We encourage honest, respectful feedback.

You set your own rate when building your profile. We recommend researching rates in your area to stay competitive. Your rate is visible to all parents browsing sitter profiles, so accuracy and consistency matter.

Find Christian Sitters charges a 20% service fee on all completed bookings. This is automatically deducted from your earnings before payout — so if a parent books you at $20/hour for 3 hours, you receive $48. There are no hidden charges beyond this fee.
