Destination Sitters' Reviews
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.
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 just wanted to thank you for such a wonderful experience. I was so nervous about leaving my boys and your sitter was fantastic! Both days I returned everyone was smiling! Please let the sitter, Katherine know how very much I appreciated her! I'm leaving a recommendation for your company on the DIS boards online. When I return to Disneyland, I will be sure to use your services again.
Our sitter, Linda, was excellent. We were very, very happy with her services. Also, the hiring process was very efficient. We loved the experience of working with your company. :) Congratulations! Another great experience with your company. Maria was extremely professional, and very caring! My daughter had a great time, and I was able to take care of my appointments without any worries! Thanks!!!
I can not even put into words how impressed I was with Destination Sitters! They were informative, professional, friendly - truly amazing. I received a bio on the sitter by email. A call from the sitter prior to coming. She showed up 5 minutes early, in uniform, with a bag of toys and a smile! When I returned she left a worksheet of everything my 14 month old and her got up to in the 4 hrs I was gone and I received a thank you card from HER! I would use them over and over again. I really haven't been this impressed with a company in a long time. Thank you, Destination Sitters, very much.
Christa was amazing! Harrison loved her and I immediately felt comfortable leaving him in her care. Christa/Destination Sitters allowed us to enjoy a day in NAPA while Harrison had a great time at the park. Thanks again!
