She’s incredible

Considerate, respectful of time and responsibilities, attention to details, took initiative and was able to handle multiple kids lovingly and in an orderly manner. Highly recommend Kaylen and thank you for putting our minds at ease while we were out 🙏🏿

Display sitters availability

It would be helpful if the sitter’s availability was displayed when viewing their profiles. I do not like not having the option to
choose a different sitter because the schedule that I select automatically removes any sitter that cannot do the specified time. I can allow flexibility at times and it would be helpful to see their availability before having to enter my request. Perhaps I may find a better fit if this were an option.

Ella

Ella was wonderful. She was punctual and respectful. She was a huge help taking my son to and from his after school activities.

Sketchy and very unsafe

First off, there are a lot of sketchy people claiming to be sitters, and a lot who simply don’t read posting, I put in posting you must have reliable transportation to my home, one person didn’t even have transportation, had a boyfriend fresh out of prison and told me she could watch my kids at her house? Because she didn’t like that I had cameras, I’m yeah that’s a red flag! But I found it cheaper and safer to use childcare at my ymca, and they are all background checked, cpr trained. I deleted the app immediately

Great sitter

JaLynn was great! Would love to have her watch the kiddos again!

Great with our 3 kids!

Addison was wonderful with our 3 kids and even stayed a little later than expected. My kids really enjoyed her!

Sitters have no support

I have been a sitter on this app for over 3 years. I have over 20 booking with all 5 stars reviews. Randomly, I open the app today to discover that my account has been deactivated with no explanation. If you’re going to deactivate accounts, you should at least send a message for a reasoning. I find this completely unprofessional and unreliable. I tried to call the support number and nobody picks up the phone.

Amazing!

She is punctual, professional, and courteous. I would not think twice about hiring her. She was amazing with our nine month old son.

Dispute

Everything was fine until they wrongfully banned me over another card was used and was confirmily authorized. Good app but easily banned

🩵

Saylor was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in on short notice and immediately put us at ease. She bonded so naturally with our 6-year-old daughter, who had an absolute blast and kept asking when Saylor could come back.

Saylor was kind, engaging, dependable, and clearly loves spending time with kids. She was easy to communicate with, punctual, and made the whole experience seamless. We felt completely comfortable leaving our daughter in her care and would happily hire her again. We highly recommend Saylor to any family looking for a caring and trustworthy babysitter!

Great sitters!

Every time I have used bambino, I have been pleasantly surprised and blown away by the quality of engaging, reliable and trustworthy sitters who show up. Booking, communication and payment through the app is easy and I would definitely suggest to families seeking last-minute Childcare.

We Love Her!!!!!!

Thank you so much. She is so polite and loving with my children.

Great app

great app! love that it lets you be a sitter under 18 too! the one thing i have to complain about, though, is that the app takes part of the compensation you’re paid. it’s only like $2 and hour that they take but still. i get that they need to make money and that’s how they make some but charging the parents two dollars extra than the hourly rate and taking it when you didn’t sit it weird to me. but app works well and i love that i get recommended families that are walking distance from my house.

Great sitter!

Molly was wonderful with my girls! They are already asking when she can come again.

Nancy was great!

Nancy took great care of our two little kids. She is very responsive and attentive. We would highly recommend her and would love to have her back.

Whitney is AMAZING!

Whitney is a wonderful babysitter! She is reliable, caring, and great with kids. Our children love spending time with her, and we always feel confident knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend!

Need background checks for parents

I have been babysitting on this app for 3 years and I’ve had wonderful experiences. However, it doesn’t seem that parents also get background checked. As a sitter, I would like to know if the house that I am stepping into is a safe environment. It is important to acknowledge the safety for the sitter as well as the family. There is no marking on the parent’s profile that shows that they have been background checked.

Excellent job!

Camila did a wonderful job with our two grandsons (ages 6 and 20 months) who are visiting from out of the country. Camila approached them warmly and they immediately felt comfortable with her.

Camila communicated clearly with me from first booking and was right on time. She prepped meals and safely cared for them in our home and the park. Thank you!

Would love per child pricing

I really enjoy using the app, and it’s been great, I’ve had positive experiences overall.

One feature I’d love to see is the ability to set rates based on the number of children. Right now, if I accept a booking at my minimum rate, a family can request care for multiple kids and the app still only charges my one child rate. I think sitters should be able to reflect that in their pricing. Adding per child or tiered rates would make the platform much fairer for both sitters and families.
