🤔 A good sitter keeps an eye on kids. A Smarts4Heart sitter helps kids feel safe, while keeping them engaged, happy, and willing to learn! So, what’s the difference between a passive sitter and a proactive one?

A passive sitter does the following… 🥴👎

Sits on the couch scrolling
Lets kids watch TV all night
Ignores family routines
Leaves you in the dark
Just “keeps an eye”

Meanwhile a proactive sitter… 🤩👍

Plays with kids
Limits screen time
Follows your rules
Keeps you updated
Helps kids feel safe

Why have a passive sitter when your kids can share meaningful experiences with proactive, Smarts4Heart sitters? Remember, babysitting isn’t just about care, it’s also about connection! ✨
