When companies think about supporting working parents, they often start with a simple question: "How can we help them find childcare?" But in reality, most parents aren’t struggling to find someone they trust. They already have a network—a babysitter they rely on, a neighbor who helps out, a grandparent who watches the kids twice a week. What they’re really struggling with is the cost of care. That’s why the next generation of employee childcare benefits must move beyond access and focus on affordability. Childcare costs have risen faster than inflation in most parts of the country. The average family now spends over $10,000 per child, per year on care. That’s more than in-state college tuition in many states. For two-working-parent households or single parents, these costs aren’t optional—they’re a non-negotiable part of working life. And yet, most "childcare benefits" programs aren’t helping families pay for care. They’re helping them find care—something most already have.

Did you know that paying your babysitter could be a tax-advantaged expense? For millions of working families, babysitting isn’t just a necessity—it’s a lifeline. Whether you're covering a work shift, commuting, or simply managing school closures and evening meetings, the help of a trusted sitter is invaluable. But here’s the big secret most families don’t realize: Babysitting can qualify for both Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DCFSA) reimbursements and the federal Dependent Care Tax Credit (DCTC). The problem? Very few families take advantage of these tax-saving opportunities when it comes to informal babysitting arrangements. In this post, we’ll explore why babysitting is an eligible expense, why it's so underutilized for tax savings, the compliance challenges families face (especially when paying sitters under the table), and how a platform like SitterSync can help.

Babysitting is a great way to earn money, especially if you enjoy spending time with kids. But one part of babysitting can be really tricky: asking for a better rate.

AI can actually help you become a more confident babysitter, and even help you negotiate (that means talk about and agree on) higher pay. This blog will show you how. Whether you're trying to figure out the average babysitter pay, understand your local babysitter pay rate, or even use a babysitter pay calculator, AI tools can help you every step of the way.

Childcare is one of the biggest challenges facing working families today. As an employer, you may already offer a Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DCFSA) to help. But here’s the problem: many employees aren’t using it — or they’re using only a small portion of it. Why? Because they don’t know what counts, how to keep records, or how to get reimbursed. That’s where SitterSync comes in.
