Wedding Babysitters

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.

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!

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

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!

I just left this review on Yelp and thought I'd share with you: Our family went on a work/family trip to Anaheim. I spent my days with our two daughters (ages 9 & 7) while my husband was at his conference. At night, the husband and I had many events to attend. We hired Destination Sitters on a recommendation from a co-worker. We were assigned Kathy N. as our sitter and could not have received a better sitter for our girls! She has a nurturing personality, along with an education background. She kept our girls thoroughly entertained by bringing her own games to play with them, her swimsuit to hang out at the pool, and her genuine attitude of caring about children. Never once did we have a doubt the girls were well taken care of, as all they could talk about the next day was how much fun they had with Kathy. If you're traveling and need a sitter, put your mind at ease and go with Destination Sitters!

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!
