Bambino is a free mobile app that modernizes the way parents find, book, and pay trusted local sitters. Through integrated social connections, parents are connected to babysitters right in their own neighborhood, who have already been reviewed and recommended by friends and neighbors. Booking, schedule reminders, and payment all happens right in the app. Sitters have the flexibility to earn money when it works into their own busy schedules. Bambino is babysitting made easy.
What really sets Bambino apart from other babysitting services are the hand-selected Community Coordinators in each area of the country where Bambino has launched. These CCs recruit talented, top sitters, communicate with parents, answer questions, host events and serve as the touchpoint for that entire local Bambino community. And, you guessed it, they often become the most popular parent in town because they have the hook-up to all the best sitters.
Bambino Roanoke was just launched this June by Barrie Ely, a mother of two and transplant from WV. Without any family nearby, she and her husband were struggling to find trusted sitters so that they could enjoy a regular date night, but the problem is solved. Sitters of varied ages and experience, some with medical training, are signed up and ready to serve the valley from Bent Mountain to Blue Ridge and Troutville to Smith Mountain Lake.

Business Review
Celebrity mom, Gwyneth Paltrow, said this about Bambino: “Bambino is genius! It's an app where you can find babysitters, who often live in your neighborhood, who have been recommended and vetted by trusted friends—so you’re not blindly picking from an anonymous directory of randoms. With the insane pace of life today it’s nice to know that one part of parenting just got easier.”
