Abstract: The present systems and/or methods generally facilitate scheduling and/or payment of a service provider. In one embodiment, the scheduling system is integrated with a payment system and configured for use with childcare providers and childcare requestors (i.e., parents). In this embodiment the providers upload their schedules onto an online database via a website. The parents may then browse the available providers for a specific time and date at which the parents desire childcare services. The parents may select a specific time and date to create a booking request, which the website may then forward to the childcare provider. The childcare provider may accept the booking request, and the parent is notified of same. The parent may be billed for the services through the website and the childcare providers may be paid through the website so that no funds are exchanged directly between parents and childcare providers.
