We were going to Los Angeles for my brother's wedding and needed a babysitter for our 9-month-old. We were a little nervous because we had never left her alone with anyone other than family members. When I called Destination Sitters, they answered all of my questions and my husband and I liked that they interview the babysitters which was something none of the other sitter services that our hotel recommended did. We were going to be in LA during what they were calling "Carmagedon." The main highway near our hotel was closed and we could not find anyone to babysit. Destination Sitters said that they would do their best to find someone for us and they did. We got Carrie's resume by e-mail and it was impressive. She arrived at our hotel a few minutes early in her uniform and had a bag of toys for our daughter to play with. Our daughter immediately warmed up to her and we were thrilled. She was friendly, experienced, and most importantly, we trusted her with our most important possession. She knew I was a little nervous and sent me a text message while we were at dinner telling me that our daughter was doing great and was sleeping in her crib. It was so thoughtful of her to do that for us! At the end of the night she gave us a letter telling us everything that she did that night including what my daughter ate, played, how many diapers were changed, and when she went to bed. We had Carrie babysit for 2 nights and she gave us a thank you card at the end of the second night which I saved for my daughter's baby book. We would definitely recommend Destination Sitters to anyone else out there looking for a good babysitting experience.
I liked that I was called back quickly and that I was given the same sitter for the 4 days. I loved receiving a bio on the sitter in advance. I thought the rate was good. Most importantly though was how wonderful my sitter was. She was early every day and from the first moment my son met her he liked her, which made me feel very comfortable. Melissa continued to make me feel comfortable by returning my texts quickly and just her overall attitude towards my son. If I lived in LA I would have tried to steal her for a permanent babysitter. If I am out there again, I will definitely give destination sitters a call. Thank you.
We planned to use Destination Sitters to watch our 4-year-old during a conference. As it turned out, due to a medical emergency, we used them much more then anticipated. The sitters were fantastic. After one day, the first thing my daughter asked after waking was when the sitter would arrive. When told at 8:30 am, she said that was way too long to wait! While we planned in advance and reserved time for the conference but unfortunately needed more at the last minute and Yvonne went out of her way to help! I could not say enough positive about the service and the sitters. We will be using them again in the future!!!
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!
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!
Maria provided complete attunement during her service. She made me feel as if she was a family member which gave me ease and peace of mind. I mostly like the fact that my kids enjoyed their time during Maria's service "because she was running around and playing" with the kids. Extend your services to Fresno, CA.....maybe? ...I know people in Fresno are used to Kidspark prices; however, the quality you provide for childcare is priceless...you are high quality childcare which is nonexistent in Fresno.
