Beth Allen was great! She kept us posted on our newborn and clearly knows how to handle anything that comes up. We will definitely ask for her again!
She was awesome! Great with our kids, very friendly and outgoing and kindhearted. Really appreciated having her with us today.
Outstanding communication. Super friendly. Confident. Did not worry about my son at all while we were gone.
Amazing job! Beth Allen was so kind, proactive, and engaging. We will definitely use her again!
Beth Allen was prompt, a few minutes early. We was great with our pups while our baby slept.
Brandi was a great comfort to my kiddos when they asked that she sit in their room until they fell asleep. I was so relaxed knowing she was willing and able to do that for them. Peace of mind is priceless!
She was awesome!! Prompt, polite, and children loved their time together!
She was early and helped clean up. Much appreciated!
Very attentive and helpful! Will use again.
I gave two stars because she was nice and at least fed the kids and played some. I don’t know how she had 5 stars because she hardly interacted or talked to the kids during the 1 1/2 hours I was home before leaving. I felt so bad leaving because my daughter was crying when we left mainly because she didn’t know what to do because this lady wasn’t talking or interacting with her. I have had 4 sitters so far from this app and this was the first one my daughter cried with. I came home and it was like when I left— quiet. My kids were playing on the bed and the lady was sitting on the toy box not interacting with them. She was on her phone but was just there to literally watch my kids— not actually play with them or make them have fun. She also didn’t send me one picture like I requested for the job and I had to reach out to her to see how the kids were. For $21/hr and 5 star reviews, I expected someone more kid friendly! She would be better dog sitting to make extra cash in my opinion.
Both of my kids loved playing with her all day! She was excellent! They did school work, played games! My daughter told me to rate her a 5/5 stars because she did everything even took the dog on a walk!
My kids loved her!! She played with them, and contacted me with any questions. Highly recommend Velencia!
Rating from my son. She played games with him for a long time.
Very considerate and fun with my boys
Great!
Our boys love Claire!! She is so natural with our kids and we can tell she engaged them so well. So happy to have her watch our kids anytime!!
One of the best sitters I have ever had!
Claire was great with my two children. She kept them entertained with minimal screen time as requested and washed dishes without being asked.
Although she didn’t say anything to me when I got home, Claire claimed my dog bit her and is now trying to get me to pay hospital bills. Her mom called me an hour after the job was completed (her mom!! Not the babysitter who is 25 years old). She sent me pictures of her “wound” and I can assure you it did not require antibiotics or even a visit to the doctor. She has called the police and animal control.
Morganne was great. Thanks you
Morganne was great. Thank you
My appointment ran long and she was very gracious and patient.
Miss Ty was so great with my little baby and two toddlers. She was easy going and flexible. We enjoyed meeting her and can’t wait to use her again.
