Parents can now hire Division I athletes as babysitters

(InvestigateTV) — For college athletes Zoey Burgess and Ciara Ulrich-Power, babysitting isn’t just a job.

It’s an opportunity to inspire.

“I think we inspire them a lot more than we may realize,” Burgess said.

Both student-athletes, Burgess at Arizona State University and Ulrich-Power at the University of Arizona, have joined Sport Sitters.

This platform connects families with college athletes for babysitting opportunities.

Founded by Meaghan Franks, Sport Sitters was inspired by a standout experience with a student-athlete babysitter from ASU’s women’s soccer team.

“She was incredible. Whenever she would come over, our kids were active, they were engaged,” Franks said.

That spark led to the creation of an app that now connects dozens of student-athletes with families looking for reliable, energetic childcare.
