Meet Yvonne

Founder & Managing Director

When I moved to San Diego more than 17 years ago, I needed childcare myself. Like most parents, I assumed there were standards for temporary babysitting—but I was shocked to learn that no state standards or licensing requirements existed. That realization led me to create Destination Sitters.

From day one, my goal has been simple: Give Parents Peace of Mind®. To achieve that, I established the strictest screening process in the industry. Every sitter we refer is thoroughly background checked, drug tested, CPR/First Aid certified, and personally vetted. Families can feel confident knowing their children are in safe and capable hands.

What began as a personal need has now grown into a trusted nationwide service. Today, Destination Sitters operates in 21 U.S. cities and is recommended by over 5,000 hotels, wedding planners, and event coordinators.

As both a mom and the founder of Destination Sitters, I understand how important it is to know your children are well cared for—so you can truly enjoy your time away.

Destination Sitters' Reviews

Courtney is very mature, confident, friendly, and prepared. Wish she lived in our hometown so we could use her all the time.

I want to thank you for the chance to have an adult evening out on our trip. Rebecca was wonderful! A lot of people can be overwhelmed by our triplet boys- but she seemed comfortable right away. And our boys were at ease with her immediately as well. They all had a good night! You are lucky to have Rebecca. Please give her our kindest regards.

I appreciate the professionalism and being able to contact the main office and speak to someone in person at any time. The sitter, Maria, was just incredible. Not only did she show up a little earlier and immediately started caring for the kids (which helped me get ready for my outing), but she completed all my requests better than I expected; she took kiddos outside to the beach and then to nearby park to play. She fed them, gave them baths, etc. best part was that she also responded to my texts and that gave me incredible peace of mind. It was a great experience. We'll be back.

Libbie was absolutely amazing with my son. He had such a great time, and I felt so comfortable leaving him with her.

I loved the initial customer service. Alex made sure to find the right sitter for our six-month-old twins. Maria was excellent. Our babies were fed, changed, and completely asleep when we returned. She also updated us with texts.

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!
