I was nervous about finding a sitter though an app but Valentina was great. We were able to communicate before she watched our son and even during her time with him when I was in class. She was very understanding of his intricacies and even normalized things like changing poopy diapers as a part of the job. I appreciate how enthusiastic she was in playing with our son and would recommend her in the future to any parents looking for a great babysitter!
Valentina was excellent at communicating, arrived on time, and did a great job engaging and playing with our son! They spent a very long day together when I had a work obligation and everything went smoothly; such a relief for me!
Valentina was great with the kids, had them in bed for us, super sweet, she speaks Spanish (so do we so that was perfect)! Will use her again :)
Valentina was so great!! Engaged with our kids immediately, and they took to her very well. We will definitely use her again :)
Valentina was fantastic with Miles. We'll definitely hire her again if given the opportunity!
Mae did a wonderful job taking care of my son even though he was a little under the weather! She is kind, sweet, and thoughtful. My son took to her right away. I hope to be able to use Mae in the future.
Mae was on time. She immediately jumped in to conversation with our daughter and made the first time meeting feel effortless and comfortable.
Mae was great! Helped with homework then they did crafts, made cookies and played games and my daughter was ready for bed when I got home.
Mae is wonderful! Communicates very well and loved our kids! Our daughter felt so comfortable with her that she fell asleep on her.
She was on time, very attentive, helped with bath time and feeding. We look forward to seeing her soon.
Skylar is an excellent babysitter! She was great with the kids. If you are looking for a sitter that will play with your kids and not just play with her phone, Skylar is the girl for you!!
Skylar was absolutely wonderful! She texted me about how everything was going and truly went above and beyond any other sitter we’ve had.
Skylar was amazing. We were so grateful for her dependability and reliability with our kids. Also, they have so much fun with her!
Skylar was great, friendly, punctual, and she developed a quick rapport with the kids! Will def look to her again in the future
Skylar is flexible, communicates all of details really clearly, and our daughter really warmed up to her quickly.
Zoe was kind and responsible with my two kids (8 and 10). She was able to drive them on a fun trip to Dave and busters. Thanks Zoe!
Absolutely fabulous sitter. Calm and attentive + very responsive when I touched base during the day. Highly recommend Zoe!!
Zoe was wonderful! My daughter had a ball. Zoe even cleaned up behind my daughter throughout the day - amazing!
Communicative, responsible, timely, what we needed!
Friendly, on time, our kids loved her!
Zoie is great at engaging our 2.5 year old so we can get out of the house in a calm manner. She’s easy to communicate with before, during and after the babysitting job and leaves the house tidy by putting away toys. Glad we found her!
Zoie is so friendly and sweet and our 3 year old was instantly comfortable with her. Really a great sitter!
Zoie is so great! She kept up with our rambunctious boys and got them down for bed without a fight!

Zoie was awesome with my 11 month old, and I would absolutely recommend her to others.
Our little one enjoyed playing and reading with her. As this was her first time around our little one we are pleased with how well they got along and how attentive she was the whole time! We look forward to having her around more often.
Ava was wonderful and our daughter said “she was a great person.” 😊 We will definitely have her back!
She was great. She played games with the kids and cleaned up too.
Ava did a fantastic job! So super engaging and active with Miles!
Ava is awesome and she let us stay out late!!
Alaina was wonderful. She took a very stressful day where we needed to find care quickly and alleviated all of our anxieties. She was wonderful with my daughter, at ease in our home/neighborhood and a great communicator. Will definitely be using Alaina again if she's available!
Wow!! My first time using this service and we lucked out with Alaina. She was prompt, communicated well during the day, and she even made dinner! 😍 What a doll! My 7 year old loved her and she was able to assist with virtual learning. Will definitely book again!
Alaina had great energy, our daughter instantly lover her. She was a great communicator, always letting me know what they were up to and any questions. She was on time, accountable and lovely. Thanks, Alaina!

Gabriella was wonderful. We are Wyndy frequent flyers, and never before has my daughter made a point of saying how much she loved her babysitter until we had Gabriella. She was very engaged with the kids the entire time.
Gabriella is fantastic! She’s warm and engaging and both my children loved hanging out with her. She’s also very thoughtful and makes sure to tidy up before she goes.
Gabriella was amazing, and my kids loved her! Would definitely recommend her to anyone! :)
Gabriella was on time, very communicative, and so sweet with our kids.
Gabriella does a great job engaging and playing with our son!

Emma has babysat for us three times now and our kids are very fond of her. Everything has been going smoothly and we hope to continue to have her help us.
Emma is basically the best?? I don’t know what else to say except TY Emma!
Emma is great with our kids and a pleasure to engage with.

Idalis arrived on time and got the job done!
She is great!
We're glad to have met her and look forward to seeing her again. She was attentive and helpful with playtime and mealtime and well cared for..
Veronica is one of our go to sitters. She is very patient and plays with our little one and helps with bath and dinner. I would recommend.
Veronica is new to babysitting, she listened to our instructions and did a great job putting our 7month old to bed.
Great!
She was incredible! Extremely communicative prior to the job and was the perfect babysitter for our needs.
Francesca is friendly and easygoing, and was an excellent fit for my 8yo daughter. We’d hire her again!
Wonderful!
Abby was very playful with my daughter and was great at communicating how things were going!
Sweet, joyful, fun, and on point with details
Got home at midnight and neither of our children were in bed. Disappointing.
She did a good job of engaging our son right away so we could get of the house peacefully! Great at communicating!
Good communication, kept my son engaged in play and was very patient with him.
You’re a life saver! Thank you so much.
So kind, ready to jump in, and easy with children — thank you Bella!
Bella was amazing with our sons visiting from out of town.
She’s awesome!
Isabel is amazing. She did a great job with our twins.
Super personable. Looking forward to using her again!
Great communication before, during, and after!
We were visiting New Orleans and needed a babysitter but I was a bit nervous not having used this service before. Moresa’s warm nature immediately made me feel at ease leaving my son in her care. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to other parents looking for care.
Moresa was fantastic! Would happily have her watch our kids again.
She was wonderful!
Norah was amazing! She handled both our kids so well. Our 2 year old was not happy and she handled like a pro, we would love to have her back!
Wonderful! Immediately felt at ease with Norah. Looking forward to hiring her again.
She got really snippy with my kids and left the dinner dishes in the sink. Kids were already ready for bed when she got there. They watched a movie so all she had to do was put them to bed. We made it as easy on her as possible too. The kids requested we do not hire her again.
Maddie was friendly and great with our boys. She communicated well and wasn’t afraid to ask us questions when our youngest has trouble sleeping. Highly recommend!
Communicative. Sweet. Great with the kids. My toddler loved her! Read 1,000,000 books to the book-loving babies.
Attentive, sweet, and gentle
Ti was very helpful! Thanks!!
Amazing!!!
She was great! Calmed and nervous three-year-old and was wonderful with the boys. Thank you, Gaby! 
Great with the kids…putting toddler for nap and entertaining our 10 year old
