Great sitter

Vanessa was kind and attentive. My kids love her and have so much fun when she’s here. We would welcome her again anytime!

My kids love Katherine!

Katherine plays ticket to ride with my kids and they absolutely love when she comes over. She is one of their favorites and I really appreciate her communication!

Highly recommend

Anna was amazing. She was very good with communication, came 10 minutes early, and she made my daughter feel safe and happy as soon as she walked in the door. I felt confident leaving my 16 month old in her care. When I came home, my daughter was sound asleep, house was clean, and Anna had great feedback about the night. Definitely going to have Anna come back :)
