Chances are, you might not know who’s coming over to watch your kids. Helpr assures that all the babysitters have been hand picked, interviewed in person, have gone though a background check, and are CPR certified. Right now Helpr is in Los Angeles, but the developers are working on expanding into other areas soon. You can download Helpr from the App Store. Right now, the app is only available for iPhone.
