Efficient Childcare Provider Apps

The New NannyPod App is Designed to Make Sitter-Searching Easy

— July 27, 2021 — Life-Stages
NannyPod is a brand-new app that helps connect families to experienced babysitters, nannies, and infant care specialists. This revolutionary new app for parents makes searching for that ideal sitter stress-free. The app specializes in six core childcare types and has brought speed to the tedious task of sitter hunting for families across the US.

Setting up the NannyPod app is quick and easy. Parents create a profile and pay as low as eight dollars/month for unlimited sitter bookings. Parents are able to pay their sitters directly through the app which alleviates any extra hassle. The app is low-fee and is designed to be the fastest way to find childcare in the US. The app is free for childcare providers which makes this app ideal for both sitters and parents alike. NannyPod has plans to expand globally and provide services in countries like Canada, the UK, and Australia.
