care.com interviews for babysitting & housecleaning
I know we've got a list for other Nesties who are willing to babysit, but it seems when we have wanted a sitter, we really want someone to come into our own home in the evening so that Zoey can go to sleep in her own bed -- and I'm guessing many of the people on the sitter swap list would prefer to be in their own homes...
I am also at wit's end with my dirty house, and between the working, commuting, and class I'm taking, I only want to spend my "free" time with DH & DD -- not cleaning. And it shows.
SO, I just paid for a subscription to care.com and am going to do some interviews for both babysitters and someone to clean our house (just one spring cleaning at this point).
Anyone else interested in joining me for a group interview scenario (for sitter, cleaning, or both)? Shea, you & I mentioned this idea in a post a couple of months ago, I think...
Just thought it may be a more economical & efficient way for a few of us to find people we feel we might be able to trust. Send me a PM with your e-mail address if you're interested! 
Re: care.com interviews for babysitting & housecleaning
I may take you up on this as I've not found a suitable sitter for my girls yet. I'll be in touch.
ETA: I must be an idiot but I can't figure out how to PM. Anyway,my email address is:
I was just going to post that I need someone to come in & clean in order for me to actually me the goal of 30 days to have house on the market. I'm definitely willing to do the group interview for both!

I've contacted Shea & Angie...
If anyone else wants in on the interviews, just let me know.
If you send me a PM, let me know here, too, as I often forget to check for messages on here
