Destination Sitters' Reviews
What a great resource Destination Sitters' provides, for parents like me who want the peace of mind of leaving the kids with a safe and responsible young adult, who is also so much fun that the kids are happy to go with them. It gave me a few hours to enjoy the La Costa resort in ways that I couldn't do with the kids. They said their sitter was "awesome." I felt confidence to leave them with him, and I got the rejuvenation I wanted from a few hours at the spa! I will definitely be calling you again!
Peace of mind. You do not feel like you are bringing a 'complete stranger' into a hotel room to sit with your children. Knowing that applicants are screened in advance is a great asset. The entire transaction was very thorough and professional. Very much appreciated the contract from the follow-up phone call with confirmation of sitter and name. The email confirmation prior to her arriving. In addition, the sitter had a written contract to sign. Lastly, the follow up receipt and this survey. Some may think this is 'overkill' but there have been times when you book through a hotel or resort you just are not sure the sitter will show up. This was completely the opposite! Highly recommend this service!
ALL of your sitters have been AWESOME! I love that I can be sure that they have the experience to handle any situation- from keeping kids entertained and stimulated, to knowing what to do in case of an emergency. Thank you for letting me be able to NOT worry when I am away from our little loves!
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!
Easy access, even for last minute arrangements. Very professional, friendly, fun sitter. A model customer service; responsive, communicative. Real, humane communication not some tired, careless, just "business" attitude. Wish somebody told me about this service for my prior travels. My best wishes to whole team who make this service available. Thanks.
We thought Heather was very friendly, trustworthy and responsible. Our son said she she was the "best babysitter ever!"
We’ve transformed the way parents can travel with their kids!

Bookings must be for a minimum of 4 hours and can be longer. Reservations are held with a credit card and there may be cancellation fees if booked sits are cancelled within twenty-four hours of the sit time or otherwise. Please review our Cancellation Policy.

While everyone assumes that the state has minimum standards for temporary babysitting, there are no state standards or licensing requirements for temporary childcare.
Destination Sitters has created standards for its sitters.
All Destination Sitters
1. are background checked, drug tested
2. have professional and personal references checked
3. have provided First Aid & CPR certificates
4. are undergraduates, graduate students, moms, and grandmothers
5. average between 22-28 years old, though we also can refer older sitters (minimum age is 18)
Many companies claim to be "Licensed and Bonded." Since there is no state "license" for temporary childcare, their license is merely a city business license, which all businesses are required to have. The bond is most often either a surety bond (for the sitter to get paid) or for theft (usually limited to $3,000-$5,000) for the owner, not the sitter. A bond is not liability insurance.
