3 Apps For Scoring The Best New Year's Babysitter
Have you booked your babysitter for New Year’s Eve yet? It might be more expensive this year, especially if you’re living in New York City. Sitters in the area are charging $60 per hour. Though the holiday rate is steep, many in New York see it as proof of dance of supply and demand, and are willing to pay the rates. Babysitting agencies have modeled their pricing after Uber’s surge pricing models. Here’s how to hire a babysitter online.
1. Urban Sitter—Find this app on Google Play and load it onto your new Samsung Galaxy Note5 from T-Mobile. Sitters on Urban Sitter have a background check, infant and child CPR certification, Spanish-speaking babysitters, special needs skills and more.

3. Sitterberry—Featured in the Apple app store, you can pay your sitter via Paypal and keep a roster of available sitters that you like. Load it onto your new iPad from Verizon and then go dance the night away!
