Families local to you love Sitters Families local to you love Sitters Shima was amazing!! She arrived early, bonded very quickly with the children. My 2 year old is normally extremely shy and usually cries when I leave the house but with Shima he didn't even bat an eyelid!! Shima was independent and looked after the children well.
