Danielle Wiley let her two sons help sort through profiles on a website called sittercity dot com. She says: "I love the photos when the sitters show pictures of themselves with dogs they watch children they've watched."
The website lists more than a million profiles of home care helpers in more than 30 U.S.cities. It's the brainchild of a woman who says it came to her when she saw a nine- months pregnant woman posting help wanted signs.
Genevieve Thiers is CEO of Sittercity.com.
She says: "It's the kind of business idea that makes busy moms wonder what took so long? It's a website that can save them time and money."
