“Since our start in October of 2004, While You’re Out, LLC has grown to service over 50 families in the Madison area. I take great pride in being able to match families with EXPERIENCED, suitable sitters. Each sitter has gone through a thorough screening and interview process that I personally conduct. I am in contact with the sitters on a weekly, if not daily basis. I feel that it is extremely important to maintain the personal connections that I have with both the families and sitters. I want sitters and families both to feel comfortable calling me with any questions or concerns they may have. I connect families with sitters who will create a fun and safe environment for their children while they are away from home. There is not one sitter in our database that I would not have take care of my own child.”

Meet our
Administrative Coordinator…
I would like to take the time to introduce myself. My name is Tara Ress, sister in-law to Director of While You’re Out, Cheri Ress. I will now be part of the While You’re Out family as I have taken on the role of Administrative Coordinator. I am a graduate of UW-Madison with a degree in English. I spent much of my college career however working with children. I worked for Afterschool at Midvale Elementary in Madison for four years, three and a half as a Program Specialist, and my last ½ year as Assistant Supervisor. After graduation, I spent 9 months as Assistant Director at La Petite Academy. Here I gained a great deal of knowledge at both the administrative level and classroom level. I helped out in all classrooms and had the opportunity to work with infants as young as 6 weeks, and school age children as old as 12. I have since moved on to a different career path however I still enjoy working with children. I love spending time with my nephew, Jacob, and really enjoy seeing the changes in him every single day. I look forward to helping While You’re Out continue to be the great success it is today.
