Need A Sitter, Inc. was founded in 1990, by Colleen Capstick as a premier word-of-mouth babysitting referral company. Colleen recognized a specific need in the market — a resource to help families connect with reliable babysitters. Need A Sitter was the first babysitting referral company in Memphis, Tenn., and is now expanding to other markets. It offers clients a unique user experience, allowing for customizable requests for short-term placements with high-quality sitters. Need A Sitter has built a reputation of quality through the use of proprietary, expert systems and an ever-growing network of childcare providers. For nearly three decades, Need A Sitter has thrived in the Memphis area. Now, the company is expanding by offering franchise opportunities throughout the United States. Need A Sitter is excited to share its business model with motivated women leaders looking to provide income for their family.

Rachel spends her free time with her two children and her husband – who was actually a child of a long-time Need A Sitter client family – traveling, volunteering and staying active in her church. She realizes the value of making good connections within her community, which is a great contributor to her success as a Need A Sitter operator.
“Being a mom of two little ones, Pearson and Emerson, I know the importance of needing a sitter that you can fully trust. I also know the struggle of trying to find a babysitter who is available for the certain day and time you need them. I grew up babysitting and nannying and I am excited to place wonderful sitters through Need A Sitter and continue to build relationships with Need A Sitter families.” – Rachel
