OMG! Brenda was such a life saver! Needed a last minute sitter and Brenda was able to accommodate what my family and I needed. She not only took great care of my children, but she also helped out around the house. Will definitely book again and highly recommended her.

Alexandria parents love their sitters.
Real five-star reviews of Alexandria babysitters, written by the families they sat for.
We loved having Christine. She came early to learn details of the job and was very patient with kiddos
I asked my boys how she was and my oldest said she was amazing! I think that’s because she downloaded an app that he has and she played with him. 😂 But she was communicative and sweet and if my boys like someone then I’m happy. I will be hiring her again!
Chelsea is an absolute sweetheart and was amazing with my toddler! Would most certainly hire her again!
Amy was very sweet and attentive to our one year old. She played with her and was good at interacting with her even when the baby was fussy.
Lora was prompt and professional. She did a great job engaging with my son. She also made sure that he stuck to his nighttime routine. :)
Marina is wonderful! She’s prompt, easy to communicate with, excellent with detailed instructions. And my kiddos loved her. My son came home from the school run and said, “That was SO FUN!”
Reniya was great! She fed and put my toddler down easily and was great with my 7 year old son. She was professional, friendly, and very on top of things!
