This is very simple. From the Mynightoff.com homepage click on the 'Register a circle' link. Give your circle a name and enter your email address and the security question. You will then be sent an email that will have a link that activates your account. Once activated you will be asked to specify username and password information together with your preferred name (e.g. first name or nickname) and the name of your child (or children).
Once you have set up your circle you will be the Circle Organiser and will be able to invite new members to your Circle by using the Admin page. Simply go to the Admin page and click the 'Invite Someone Else?' link. You will then be asked to enter the email address of your friends. Once you have submitted the email addresses your friends will be sent an email with a link that will enable them to join your circle.
As Circle Organiser you can see who you have invited to join and who has registered to join your circle by going to the Admin page. People who have registered for your circle will clearly be shown with a tick. Other circle members can view brief details of the circle membership by clicking the 'Circle Details' link under the 'My Circle' page.

Click confirm and your request will be posted on the site and an email detailing the request will be sent to your circle members. It is as simple as that.
They will be sent an email once the request is made and a diary entry will be shown on the site with a 'Sitter Needed' label under the Status column.
Simply click on the 'Apply' link next to the Sitter Needed request. You will then be asked to Confirm your acceptance. After confirming an email will be sent to the Booking requester to let them know you will sit for them. The diary entry will also be updated to show that the Night Off has been Booked.
After the Night Off date has passed an 'Awaiting Award' link will appear in the diary entry. Simply click on the 'Award' link and confirm the number of credits to be granted.
The site will allow you to do this. We leave it to each individual circle to set their own rules.
