Become an ArtSitter

ArtSitters are independent creative childcare providers who bring art, imagination, and meaningful play into family homes. If you love working with children and have a creative spirit, ArtSit may be a place for you.

TrustLine for ArtSitters

What is TrustLine?

ArtSitters may be asked to complete TrustLine registration as part of the ArtSit onboarding and safety process. TrustLine is California's registry for license-exempt, in-home childcare providers who complete fingerprint-based background screening.

TrustLine Costs

ArtSitters are generally responsible for completing and paying for their own TrustLine application and Live Scan fingerprinting unless ArtSit agrees in writing to reimburse or sponsor the cost. ArtSit may request proof of TrustLine application, registration, or clearance status before featuring an ArtSitter profile or confirming bookings.
