Do-Si-Do, Here We Go!

Trusting Connections is keeping the tradition alive by hosting their 5th Annual Girl Scout Cookie Buying Event! Come join us as we support Girl Scouts and encourage young girls in their efforts to learn business and leadership skills.

We Made A Promise

On Thursday, January 30, 2019, Co-Founders Rosalind Prather and Caroline Wesnitzer, vow to purchase cookies from every Girl Scout that visits between 3:30 pm and 5:30 pm. This year we will be joined with other local businesses including Oracle Ford and Silverado Technologies, and Moms Making Six Figures.

Keeping the Tradition Alive

This year, like the previous, the event will be held at the Girl Scout offices on Broadway. In the spirit of the educational purpose of this program, girls – individually or in groups, will be asked to give a brief sales pitch to TC Co-Founders before being invited to draw from a jar that will contain notes indicating how many boxes the agency will purchase from one to up to 25 boxes. Girls should come equipped with a variety of cookie flavors to sell. They will also have the opportunity to pitch to the other business participants. Signs, posters, and jingles are welcome, so come prepared!

Refreshments and snacks will be available along with a fun arts and crafts activity. We expect a huge turnout this year, so this year we are implementing a scheduling system. Please follow the link below to schedule your time slot.

Trusting Connections is honored to be named the Best Nanny Agency in the Arizona Foothills Magazine “Best of Our Valley 2020” awards. As one of the fastest growing and most respected nanny agencies in the country, the organization’s meticulous attention to detail for all the families in their care meant an already stellar reputation. But, the recent recognition by the magazine shows just how trusted the agency is throughout the Valley of the Sun.

The awards are derived straight from readers. Readers not only share their top picks for companies who are best in class, but they also vote on the finalists, making this such a special and personal honor for Trusting Connections.

“It is safe to say that we do things differently,” said Trusting Connections Co-Founder, Rosalind Prather. “We bridge the gap between families looking for exceptional child care providers and nannies seeking great families to work for. An agency eliminates so much of the stress that parents attempting to find a nanny on their own might experience and most importantly, we have made the process much safer and more enjoyable for both parties,” Prather said. “We take the privilege of that partnership very seriously and we are extremely honored to know that Arizona Foothills Magazine readers see and acknowledge our high-standards.”

Every parent who has ever traveled with kids knows that family vacations can be stressful, especially when mom and dad never get a break. If you are planning a stay at a Tucson, DFW or Phoenix resort for the holidays, don’t forget to plan a kid-free night (or day) out with the help of our hotel babysitters!

WHAT IS A HOTEL BABYSITTER?

Our hotel babysitters are fully-screened, agency-employed child care professionals that travel to local resorts and hotels and offer in-room services, 24/7, 365 days a year for children of all ages.

Typically, families have to register with our agency and complete an in-home consultation in order to book a nanny or sitter for private, residential care. However, our resort care service allows families that are just visiting to utilize our nanny and hotel babysitters in the comfort and convenience of their hotel room. Because all of our nannies and sitters are employed by our agency, we take care of everything including scheduling, paying the sitter on your behalf and much more.

HOW IT WORKS

We make finding and booking high-quality, hotel babysitters easy! 

1. Fill out a quick online booking form. If you are making a request with less than 48 hours’ notice, please call our office after you have submitted your request so that we can expedite scheduling your hotel sitter.

2. Be sure to provide your payment information when you are filling out the online booking form. We will automatically charge your card on file for services rendered. We accept all major credit cards. No need to have cash on hand to pay our hotel babysitters – we’ve got you covered.

3. Finally, wait for a confirmation call from our Schedule Manager who will book your family with a wonderful sitter and make all the arrangements to ensure your sitter arrives at the right place at the correct time. She can come directly up to the room or wait to meet you in the lobby.

FAQ’s ABOUT OUR HOTEL BABYSITTERS

Q: Is this safe? 

A: We have one of the most extensive screening processes in the industry. All of our nannies and sitters are employed by our agency and work with our clients on a regular basis. They have all passed a background investigation conducted by a local private detective we have partnered with, a drug test, knowledge-based exams and more.

Q: How far in advance do you need to schedule your hotel babysitters?

A: It is ideal if you are able to fill out your booking form by the Thursday prior to the week you are needing care. However, we also accept and can often accommodate even last-minute requests for care (within hours of the start time.) Please keep in mind that urgency fees may apply for care scheduled with less than 48 hours’ notice.

Q: How much does it cost?

A: Our hourly rates are all-inclusive, covering the nanny’s salary, taxes, insurance and agency fees. Pricing varies depending on the service type and location. To view non-member hourly rates and fees visit this page and click on your location.

Q: Can you care for newborns? Special needs children? 

A: Yes and yes! Infant rates are slightly more per hour. See pricing sheet for more information.

Q: Can your nannies take our kids on off-site outings?  

A: With written permission, our nannies are able to drive children to fun, local destinations like the zoo, Children’s Museums and more. If you have other preferences in mind, please share! Our hotel babysitters are here to help you and your kids have a memorable vacation!
