Destination Sitters' Reviews
Our experience with Destination Sitters' was perfect! Martha was great with our 3-year-old boy. She was professional, yet very friendly and had lots of toys/games that instantly had him engaged. It was clear that he felt comfortable with her and they had a good rapport within minutes. He even invited her out to "Vegas" to see us. We would definitely use the service again. As a mother, I really appreciated how nurturing she was with our boy, especially since he was feeling a bit under the weather.
Love the ease of making the reservation. Simple, straight-forward price where it is only an hourly fee. No extra or "hidden" additional costs. Greatly appreciate Yvonne making the reservation with the same sitter (Lauren) for the day where Lauren came in the morning for 4 hours then return to the hotel in the evening for another 4 hours. This really helped my 2year old adjust easily with Lauren. Just wanted to add that Lauren Crites is fantastic! My 2-year old can have stranger anxiety where if I'm not there, she would not want to stay with a sitter. Let me just say, my daughter immediately adjusted with Lauren. There were no tears. I was able to easily leave her in the hands of Lauren without any worry. Lauren is very calm, flexible, easy-going, extremely attentive to my 2 year-old and would even interact/play with my 5year old (he didn't feel left out) while at Camp Pelican. Thank you for making our visit enjoyable. Now I have a reason to return to the area again!
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!
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:)
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!
