I was a little apprehensive about leaving my 5 year old with a minder when in London for a weekend but I needn't have worried. Marcela was amazing. Kind, knowledgable and very friendly, she got it off with my son immediately and I enjoyed taking the time to get to know her a little. I am so pleased that I met her and have immediately put her down as my 1st preference for when I am in that area. I would not hesitate to recommend her for sitting and would like to say thank you for putting my mind at ease - I honestly felt confident and happy to know that my child was in her care.

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."

Having only had grandparents put him to bed, Marisa arrived to find my normally very placid 3yr old boy NOT wanting to go to bed, I wasn't ready to go out and all was chaos. She kindly played and talked to him while I got ready and convinced me to go out when wasn't sure to leave him. She texted me later to let me know all was well and I was totally happy in the knowledge that he was happy with her. You're top of my list Marisa, Ned was talking about you this morning :) x.
