Recent five-star reviews parents wrote about the sitters you'd be joining.
Would book again! She was great and the kids LOVED her!! Thank you!!
Cristal saved the day when our previously scheduled sitter canceled last minute. She was professional, courteous, and safety conscious when caring for our kids. Would definitely hire her again!
Yes. Kind, good communicator, good carer.
I would definitely book Roxana again! Great experience : )
She was great with the kids and even hand washed our dishes since the dishwasher was clean, which is not something we asked for. Kids were in bed and asleep when we got home. Everything was picked up as if our kids didn’t live here lol.
Belle was wonderful with our ten week old son! Very thorough and took great care of him. She cleaned up our house as well- she was fabulous!
We would absolutely book Cristina again! Amazing communication. Loved that she was completely comfortable meeting our dogs, too!
