The Babysitting Program
We recognize that as a parent, you have a lot of responsibilities! Taking care of a child is a duty that doesn't end when an exam is around the corner! Let us help you with that! If you are a student at USC let us provide you with free support!
Our students provide free babysitting services once per month at Columbia Evangelical Church. After you've become familiar with our program and babysitters, let's see how we can come to you and provide those services more often!

**we care about the safety of you and of our students, all students who we use in our program will have received a background check. We encourage parents to request babysitting from our students at times when it would be more helpful to the parents. However, we need to meet you first, so to "unlock" this feature you must attend at least one typical Babysitting Program first. Any babysitting services thus provided are not the responsibility of Advocates for Life.
