Sitters Unlimited LLC

Providing exceptional Childcare to Central Ohio Families for Over 20 years!

**Update 3/22/20: Per the Stay At Home Order directive issued by the Ohio Health Department issued today: Our healthy sitters are still permitted (and essential) to care for children in the client's home, as long as all family members are also healthy (See section 12 S of the Directive). Our community's essential local workers need reliable in-home childcare now more than ever. Our registration is now free to help as many local families as possible whose jobs require them to continue working outside of the home. Thank you to all of you heroes out there keeping our community running safely, and to those of you suggesting our business to essential working families who could use our help right now. For 23 years we have supported our Central Ohio community and appreciate your continued support of Sitters Unlimited LLC and other small, local businesses during this time. See Original Covid-19 message below for previous criteria/information. Thank you and stay safe!

3/15/20: Given the Covid-19 pandemic, we at Sitters Unlimited LLC want to continue to do everything we can to keep our sitters, kids, and families safe. Therefore, we are going to be experiencing some changes over the next few weeks and are in the office M-F 8a-8p to answer any questions you may have. Simply call 614-799-9116 or email us at sittersunlimitedllc@gmail.com to reach us. Please note:

*We ask all families and sitters to practice proper hygiene and hand washing outlined by the CDC. Should you or anyone in your household show any symptoms of possible exposure (e.g. mild to severe respiratory illness, fever, cough, body aches, etc.), do NOT keep your sit. Let us know with as much notice as possible and contact your sitter directly if our office is closed. Sitters are to take their temperature before going to any job and we ask family members to do the same, if possible. Please ensure you have soap and sanitizer for our sitters to use while working in your homes! We realize changes may happen quickly and ask that everyone be understanding & patient as we navigate this together. Our No Sick Child Policy and Cancellation Policies remain the same and can be viewed here: https://www.sittersunlimitedllc.com/our-policies

*Many of our sitters are parents themselves and/or college students. Both demographics are facing challenges with the school adaptations taking place and we may be short-staffed during the peak of this event. Some sitters who would have been in class may instead be able to pick up more day jobs (esp. M-F). We hope it balances out but ask that you please be patient with us as we do our best to fill the flood of incoming additional requests.

*To help as many Central Ohio families as possible, we will be waiving all client registration fees until May 1st (subject to extension). Local families can now join our service, free of charge. All sit placement fees & hourly rates will remain the same.

As with any challenging situation, we ask all clients & sitters to have as much patience as possible. Remember to be kind and understand that most cancellations are outside of anyone’s control. We will continue to support one another, our community, and will come out of this stronger together.

Parenting is tough, and sometimes it takes a village.
