Families local to you love Sitters Families local to you love Sitters Kiaya was brilliant. It was the first time I have left my 20 month old son during the day with someone from Sitters so was a little nervous but I had confidence in Kiaya straight away. She arrived slightly earlier and had brought a bag of toys. My son took to her immediately. She kept me updated throughout the day and when I came home had kept a log of feeds, nappy changes etc. My son was asleep when I got home but the next morning when I got him up the first thing he said was 'Kiaya!' She made a great impression on me and a great impression on my son. Will 100% use again. Thanks :).

Here she explains why she loves working in childcare: Having sat for Sitters families on more than 1,800 occasions, our wonderful carer Sue explains why she loves meeting new families: "I have been working with Sitters for 17 years now and over that time I have met many lovely families. The Sitters service is professional, fast and reliable and I love the fact you can receive feedback from families. The application process is thorough so families can be assured their children will receive the best of care." "I've worked with children for over 30 years. Sitters is perfect for me, it gives me flexibility, the team are always available to help and the families are lovely." "Joining Sitters was the best thing I have ever done! It gives me the freedom to work around my school hours and I love that my name changes at every sitting..."shoe", "soup"... occasionally I get "Sue"!!" Families local to you love Sitters Families local to you love Sitters Betty arrived and was immediately giving us peace of mind to be able to go out and leave our 3 children in great care. She assured us that she would manage if our smallest awoke and needed to be settled and even texted us to advise all was ok. The second time I requested Betty she even supported me to get the 3 children into bed so I could finish getting ready and drop one to youth group. The children were at ease and felt totally secure in her care as did we. This is a fantastic system putting the children at ease and being completely on time and reliable. She is truly Mary Poppins!

It was the first time we had Lucy as a babysitter and the first time that both my daughters were awake! I thought it would be a nightmare and we would never get out of the house, but Lucy managed to take my 9 month old, calm her down and get her to sleep whilst getting my 3 year old to wait for her stories. She then read my 3 year old some stories before getting her to sleep and then sent me a text to let me know they were both ok and settled. Fantastic and helped me and my husband enjoy a rare evening out. We would definitely recommend her. Thanks. More reasons to love Sitters 1.
