The League is investigating how we might help Bonnie Doon parents locate local babysitters. If we were to run a babysitter registry we are concerned that we manage risk well. What are your thoughts?

I would love a registry. I think for parents, due diligence would be the same regardless of where source of babysitter is ie friends or a registry. As for the sitter, the key is for a parent to accompany their child to initial visit/interview to make sure they are comfortable as well. Maybe keep registry confidential and instead send contact info of people looking for a sitter to the people on the registry and let them initiate contact.
