Matthew James Taylor: Kidsit Founder, General Manager


I'm a father of three kids in Sydney, Australia. I grew up on a farm and I love animals, especially reptiles!

I've been building websites for over 25 years and I created Kidsit in 2018 when I noticed there was a lack of quality babysitting information online that parents and babysitters could rely on.

Kidsit is a place where I share my experiences caring for my three children, my tricks for finding and hiring babysitters, and how to keep kids entertained with arts, crafts, and other inventive play ideas.

I have collaborated with doctors, nurses, school teachers, babysitters, and other parents to ensure all my articles are reliable, trustworthy, and useful.

In 2022, I launched our popular babysitting marketplace so families can find local childcare, and babysitters can attract jobs for free. In 2024, I added pet sitting and dog walking because many babysitting families also have pets.

Babysitting Business Secrets by Matthew Taylor

In 2020, I published Babysitting Business Secrets, a book designed to help anyone create their own successful and profitable babysitting service. It's available on Amazon as an ebook or paperback (full-color).

Kidsit is my passion project, I love helping people and creating things that people find useful.

My goal with this site is to continually improve, and grow it over time.

If you find Kidsit useful then please let your friends know so they can benefit too.

Happy babysitting!
