Destination Sitters' Reviews

My kids had such a great time. Courtney called me the day of the sit and asked permission for nail polish with the girls. My husband and I ended up coming back to our hotel room early and the girls begged us to leave again so Courtney could stay the entire time she was supposed to stay. When you ask my kids what their favorite part of Disneyland was Courtney is always in the top five "attractions". My girls even wanted to ask Courtney to spend the night!

I was happy to know that Destination Sitters covers more areas regarding background checks than other agencies offer. They actually listened to our needs for our child as well as our child's needs, and they followed through on recommending an appropriate sitter focused on our child's needs. I was extremely happy to know that there were male sitters for my son, as my son preferred to be with a buddy more. The sitter was still responsible yet fun, having great listening skills, a ton of patience and a continuous positive attitude in regard to family relationships and one's growth. The Sitter, Todd was a great fit for us all, and my son enjoyed having him around. We would consider using Destination Sitters again, and we really like the fact of having options of both male and female sitters, especially when my son is in that age of needing more of a buddy who is both reliable and safe. We were greatly satisfied with his overall care in the he time spent with our son. We were visiting from Canada and are extremely happy with Destination Sitters and we would definitely consider using them again! They are very accommodating, and they truly care about having things run smoothly, so you may have peace of mind.

Brisa was fantastic! We were coming in for a Run Disney Race at Disneyland and she went above and beyond to make sure she was there in time for us to make it to the race. It was also great to know that the kids were in good hands while we were out doing the races. If we come back to the Anaheim area again, we will be calling and asking for Brisa again!

My husband and I want to share our positive feedback regarding Destination Sitter and the experience we had with our sitter Emily Purdy. We came to San Diego this past weekend for a wedding. We are from Boston and did not know anyone to watch our 2-year-old Charlotte, as everyone we knew was already using their own nannies and the individuals they knew were away for the holiday weekend. It was a bit nerve racking taking a risk to leave her for a lengthy period of time with a new person, but I felt confident after talking with you on the phone during the screening process. The day would be a long day as the sit started in the afternoon and went into the evening for the wedding. We had Emily come 30 minutes prior to us leaving so that our daughter Charlotte would have some time to get a bit acclimated and see me with Emily. When Emily arrived, she had a smiling face, genuinely caring energy, and professional appearance. She even brought a bag of age-appropriate toys to compliment ours. Charlotte took right to her right away, which was so reassuring. Not only was Emily great with Charlotte but, per our request, she provided updates to us to let us know how she ate, how she transitioned to bed, etc. It was a wonderful night for us because we felt Charlotte was safe and being cared for by a kind and attentive - which enabled us to relax and enjoying catching up with old friends. The next day at the brunch, I recommended your company to all of the girls that live in that area and to those who traveled down from LA and Orange County. Thank you again. We will certainly use your team the next time we travel to California.

I was traveling from the East for a week-long conference. Since my children were young and we had never been separated I needed to bring them with me. Having Disneyland nearby was just a bonus. If I had to fly a sitter out with me and also pay for her room and travel there was no way to afford it. I found DS online and loved that you pre-screened all your sitters so well. It made me feel so comfortable with all the choices. Since I would be working all day, I wanted a lifeguard who would take them to the pool all day and out of the hotel room. DS made sure to send us one so that I knew the boys would be safe without me around. She fed them lunch and had them down for late afternoon naps so when I got back at five thirty they were ready for a quick dinner and still had enough energy to try the parks for a few hours. Our trip was perfect and would not have possible without your service. Thank you for helping us create memories to last a lifetime. PS: the boys still ask about our sitter and would love for her to come and visit:)

Wow. I would do anything to have a sitter like Martha at home. She was beyond qualified, the kids absolutely loved her (which made it easy for us to be away, knowing they were so happy). She was kind and gentle and so loving to the kids. And so knowledgeable. It was such a comfort having her there!
