I worked at Trusted Child Care full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
flexible, easy to find job,
Cons
sometime a handful of families
I worked at Trusted Child Care part-time for more than a year
Pros
Set your own schedule. Ability to meet families and set future dates with them. Takes the “guesswork” out of babysitting and having to find families.
Cons
Hourly pay could be better, in my opinion. I was being paid a $1 over minimum wage, which was $15 at the time.
