Love the website, easy to book, quick response when I left a vm. Linda was fantastic. Loved that she was pretty much an expert in watching kids at hotels! Most sitters don't have that experience. She was awesome. She texted us to let us know the kids were asleep, which I loved. Very impressed with her.

I had an amazing experience with Destination Sitters! This was the first time I ever had to use a sitter service ever and we happened to even be on vacation! We were going to a fancy dinner Friday night and taking kids wasn’t an option. Jess A. was our sitter and she was amazing. She was warm, kind, and I felt very comfortable leaving my 3 kids all under 5 with her (5yr old girl, 3yr old girl, 11mo boy). She brought a bag of goodies for my kids to play with which was awesome since we didn’t have much in the hotel villa to play with. The best part of the service was that Jess called to introduce herself before she arrived, on time of course with in the cutest uniform, texted me a couple of updates while we were out, and even left a page of notes about how the night went with everything they did on it! I would definitely use Destination Sitters again and would recommend it to any one with kids who need a night out and family or their normal sitter isn’t available.

I appreciate the professionalism and being able to contact the main office and speak to someone in person at any time. The sitter, Maria, was just incredible. Not only did she show up a little earlier and immediately started caring for the kids (which helped me get ready for my outing), but she completed all my requests better than I expected; she took kiddos outside to the beach and then to nearby park to play. She fed them, gave them baths, etc. best part was that she also responded to my texts and that gave me incredible peace of mind. It was a great experience. We'll be back.

Yvonne was very helpful in finding the perfect sitter for us. Our son has epilepsy, and she was very reassuring that she could find the right person, with medical training even, to ensure our son got his medications and to ensure we felt comfortable leaving him with a stranger. We typically only leave our two boys with relatives, so this was a leap for us. But our sitter, Sharon, warmed up to our children and our friend's children instantly and all 4 kids really liked her.

Wow. I would do anything to have a sitter like Martha at home. She was beyond qualified, the kids absolutely loved her (which made it easy for us to be away, knowing they were so happy). She was kind and gentle and so loving to the kids. And so knowledgeable. It was such a comfort having her there!

I wanted to reach out with a quick note to let you know how great our sitter, Megan was. We had the pleasure of having her sit for us two nights while we were on a getaway from the Scottsdale heat in Hermosa/Manhattan Beach last weekend. This was the first time we had used your service. As a new mom (our son Ty is 5-months-old), it's a little unnerving leaving your child with a stranger--especially while away from home. Megan couldn't have made us more comfortable. She endured my million questions (I'm a lawyer, so I ask a lot), communicated with us regularly while we were out, and was just a sweet person. In short, everything that we could have hoped for. After a successful first night, we had her back again to sit for us and another couple traveling with us after I assured the other mom (who is a physician and also getting used to leaving her 10-month old with sitters), of our positive experience. Megan handled all with ease. I couldn't have been more impressed--or relieved! I know Megan has other aspirations in Hollywood, and we wish her all the best, but in the meantime, you've certainly found a gem in her and as a representative of your service.
