Flexible staffing

For small gatherings or multi-day conferences. We scale to match your needs so parents and planners stay relaxed.

We've been fortunate enough to work with the wonderful team at Smart Sitting for the past 3 years and look forward to many more. Their help in coordinating on-site childcare during our annual holiday company parties has been a tremendous benefit and the employee and children feedback has always been very positive! Thanks to them, our employees and families are truly able to enjoy our holiday events with peace of mind. The Smart Sitters have all been incredibly friendly, reliable, and professional and the staff are extremely thoughtful about the program they run for the children. The staff at Smart Sitting (especially Collin!) make our event coordinating seamless and we look forward to working with them every year. Highly recommend!
