TurboTax does not contact people.  Your childcare provider is responsible for reporting her income from babysitting.  The IRS will match up her SSN or Tax ID you listed on your tax return to the income she reports on her tax return.

You might want to let her know that you claimed the credit and the figure you claimed.  If she doesn't report that income the IRS may contact her.

She knows, I just wasn’t sure if they would contact her or not.
