October 8, 2024

At Mom’s Best Friend Sitters, we understand that reliable childcare is an essential yet sometimes challenging task for many families. Parents constantly juggle work, social commitments, and personal time, and finding trustworthy care at short notice can add to the stress. With that in mind, we’re proud to introduce our brand-new subscription model, designed specifically to meet your needs, provide convenience, and save you money.

Our new subscription options are perfect for families who need consistent, reliable childcare, whether it’s for a few hours a month or more regular coverage. Let’s walk you through how this new model can transform your childcare experience, reduce financial stress, and streamline your booking process.

Why the Subscription Model?

Our previous pay-per-booking model worked for some families, but we found that it often left others wanting more—more cost savings, more flexibility, and more convenience. With the subscription model, we’re offering an affordable and predictable way for families to ensure they have access to the care they need without the hassle of paying individual booking fees each time. We believe this change reflects our commitment to enhancing your experience and making childcare more accessible.

The three subscription tiers we offer are designed to fit your specific family requirements:

Family Starter Plan- $39/month

– Includes 3 bookings per month.
$15 agency fee per additional booking.
– Late Fee: $25 if booked within 24 hours.
– Sitter rates start at $20/hour.

Family Pro Plan – $59/month

– Includes 5 bookings per month.
$15 agency fee per additional booking.
– Late Fee: $25 if booked within 24 hours.
– Sitter rates start at $20/hour.

Consistent Care Subscription Options for families requiring more frequent childcare:

– 1 Day a Week – $125/month
– 2 Days a Week – $225/month
– 3 Days a Week – $350/month
– 4 Days a Week – $475/month
– Sitter rates start at $25/hour.
$15 agency fee per additional booking.

Now, let’s dive deeper into the reasons why this new subscription model serves you better:

Cost Savings for Your Family

In today’s economy, every penny counts, and we understand that. Our subscription model is designed to save you money over time. If you frequently rely on our sitters, the costs can add up quickly when you pay per booking. With the subscription, you’re locking in a certain number of bookings each month at a lower cost per sit.

For example, under the Family Starter Plan, you pay just $39 a month for three sittings. Compare that to paying booking fees for each session ($35), and you’ll see the savings add up. Whether you’re booking a sitter for a much-needed night out, an important work meeting, or a few quiet hours at home, you’re paying significantly less for the same high-quality care you’ve come to expect from Mom’s Best Friend Sitters.

Plus, for families needing more consistent care, our Consistent Care Subscription Options offer even greater value. Imagine having reliable care locked in for multiple days a week at a predictable, budget-friendly price—this model gives you that peace of mind.

Convenience and Flexibility

We know that life can be unpredictable. One week you might need a sitter for a few hours on the weekend, and the next week you could need someone on a weekday evening. Our subscription model gives you the flexibility to schedule care as needed, without having to worry about paying additional fees or rushing to find a sitter at the last minute.

Whether you select the Family Starter Plan or one of our Consistent Care Subscription Options, you’ll have a predictable number of bookings available to you each month. The model also eliminates the need to constantly think about how much you’re spending on childcare or whether you can afford another session.

This flexibility extends beyond just booking—it applies to billing, too. With the subscription, you’ll receive a single, predictable monthly charge, allowing you to better manage your family’s finances without having to track multiple payments over the month. Simplified billing means less time spent on paperwork and more time spent with your family.

Priority Booking: Get Ahead of the Crowd

Weekends, holidays, and special events are some of the busiest times for sitters. If you’ve ever needed care during these peak periods, you know how stressful it can be to find someone available on short notice. One of the most valuable benefits of our subscription model is priority booking.

As a subscriber, your requests will be handled first, ensuring you get the care you need when you need it most. No more worrying about last-minute availability—whether it’s for a date night, work emergency, or social function, your subscription ensures that you’re at the front of the line when it comes to booking our experienced, trusted sitters.

Peace of Mind

One of the biggest reasons parents turn to us is the peace of mind they get from knowing their children are in capable, loving hands. Now, with the subscription model, this peace of mind extends to the financial side of things. You’ll know that your childcare is covered for the month, that the billing is simple, and that you won’t be caught off-guard by last-minute fees or charges.

The structure of our plans also allows you to budget more effectively. Knowing upfront what your childcare costs will be lets you plan other expenses more confidently, without the uncertainty that comes with fluctuating per-booking fees.

Access to the Best Sitters

At Mom’s Best Friend Sitters, we pride ourselves on providing only the highest quality care. All our sitters go through rigorous vetting and background checks, ensuring that they are trustworthy, skilled, and reliable. When you subscribe to one of our plans, you’ll continue to have access to these amazing sitters—now with the added benefit of convenience, savings, and reliability.

Why This Change?

We’ve introduced the subscription model because we believe it offers you better value, greater convenience, and more peace of mind. At the heart of this change is our commitment to making your life easier. Whether you’re a parent needing consistent care every week or someone who just needs a sitter occasionally, we have a plan that’s tailored to your needs.

Thank you for continuing to trust Mom’s Best Friend Sitters with your family’s care. We look forward to serving you with the same dedication and quality as always, now with even greater value through our new subscription plans.

By offering this new subscription model, we’re confident that we’ve created a solution that works for all types of families, no matter what your childcare needs may be. Explore the options today and find the plan that’s right for you!
