I have something to admit…my kids range from 6 to 11 years old and I have never paid a babysitter to watch them. I think I have watched too many true crime shows to trust a stranger to be around my kids alone. SafetyPIN though is a new service that can give moms like me peace of mind over trusting a stranger.

What is SafetyPIN?

SafetyPIN is service that uses 4-pronged screening to vet strangers online before you meet them offline. The screening includes criminal background, financial background, identity verification and behavioral screening. The behavioral questionnaire was actually developed by criminal profilers and a clinical psychologist to weed out peoeple who may present a danger – even if they don’t have a criminal record. SafetyPIN even rescreens people and revokes them if they no longer meets the requirements.

When would SafetyPIN come in handy?

SafetyPIN is perfect for whether you need a babysitter, pet sitting, elder care or even Craiglist, Airbnb, HomeAway, Bumble or Match! SafetyPIN has unlimited uses and is basically a virtual reference that you can trust. They do all the hard work verifying a person so you can have the peace of mind.

SafetyPIN is useful for everyone on both ends of the transaction. It is always nice to know who you are working with. Users who have a SafetyPIN can control who can verify their SafetyPIN and once approved (usually within 24 hours) can be shared with anyone you choose on any website. Both users can give their SafetyPIN to each other and know each is trustworthy. No personal information is shared either, just a SafetyPIN ID.
