®Destination Sitters' Reviews
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.
Very professional and friendly. Answered all my questions. The sitter Maria did a fabulous job with my two boys. They said they enjoyed her watching them and playing games.
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!
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:)
Person who answered my questions over the phone made me feel confident that this sitter service was the right one. When I told Sharon what I needed and how to work with my child, she followed my directions to the letter. My nephew also had a great time with Sharon.
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.
