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.
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 :)

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.
