Everything happened behind the scenes! I didn't see until after the babysitter had arrived that the original person scheduled had to cancel last minute. They found a replacement swiftly, and she was on-time.

My kids absolutely love Kendall. She’s on time, fun and a great communicator. She plays sports and board games with the kids and keeps them occupied without the use of screens!

I'm so thankful for this service. Students who sit takes all the work out of it from the parents side; we just request a date that we need a sitter and then get an email when its fulfilled.
