Attention Lexington Parents:

Need a Sitter? We have the answer for you!

BabysitEase, LLC, Cincinnati’s leading web-based babysitting service has announced its first franchise outside of Cincinnati as it expands into Lexington.

About BabysitEase
BabysitEase, the company creating a new industry by arranging babysitting jobs between families and babysitters through web-based technology, today announced the opening of a new franchise in Lexington, Kentucky.  This growth is the first in a plan to increase the number of franchises across the country to 50 by 2010.  You can register with BabysitEase by visiting
www.lexington.babysitease.com or visit the Cincinnati service at www.babysitease.com.  For more information about BabysitEase Lexington call (859) 293-SITS. 

How Does It Work?
BabysitEase takes the list services found on the web to a new level.  Typically list babysitter services only offer the contact information of babysitters in the area and the families have to do the work to interview, select the sitter that is right for them, and then match up schedules.  If they should lose that sitter, they are back to square one!  This can be very time consuming and inefficient.  BabysitEase actually qualifies all their sitters using thorough criteria and once a sitter is in the BabysitEase network is able to be matched with the family.  BabysitEase also schedules the sit for families.  The system is very simple and can be described in 4 easy steps:

  • A family registers online by providing their information and paying a small fee.
  • That BabysitEase family then schedules a sit on the BabysitEase website.
  • The technology matches the family and sitter and the sitter comes to their home at the scheduled time.
  • The family leaves feedback for the sitter on the website at the end of the sit.

For more information about the service or starting a BabysitEase in another city please contact Peggy Murriner at 859-442-SITS or by email at peggy@babysitease.com.  BabysitEase is the fast, easy, convenient way to find a babysitter!

Looking for some Fall activities to do in the area? Here a few of our picks:

Farmers' Market -- my kids really enjoy going to the Farmers' Market. You can go to the one downtown on Vine Street in Lexington on Saturdays, there's also one in Georgetown on Fridays downtown too. Most communities have a Farmers' Market, check here to find your local Farmers' Market www.farmersmarkets.net

Bi-water Farm -- there are all kinds of fun family things to do here. Feed the farm animals, pick your own pumpkin, go on a hayride. http://biwaterfarm.com/

Doublestink Farm -- again, a lot to do here. Their website is http://www.doublestink.com/

Lexington Cemetery -- now I know it might sound strange but if you have not been, you really need to go. It's truly beautiful and interesting too. We like to go and look at some of the tombstones and then we also like to go and feed the ducks and goldfish. There is also a newer area to the cemetery that is gorgeous. Their website is: http://www.lexcem.org/
