    We've used Kidsitter more times than I can count. Never have we been unable to book a sitter, even if doing it the night before. On every occasion the babysitter has arrived on time and more often than not early. And they have all been brilliant with our two boys (7 and 5 presently though we started using the service when 5 and 3). Our youngest has a severe nut allergy - the sitters are reliable and trustworthy and have all taken seriously our guidance on what to do in the event of an emergency. For fun they do reading, board games, hide and seek etc - all the things that you would want for your children whilst out for the evening. And we now tend to see the same sitters accept our bookings which increases the familiarity for the boys (Carmen in North London is brilliant!) I wouldn't hesitate to recommend my own friends and family and have done so many times!

    I have booked the service three hours because I would be traveling from Manchester to London to attend a 2-hour event. I thought I could bring my 15 month old baby to be look after by a kidSitter. Unfortunately, they have let me down by canceling it 48h prior to the event and not being able to find a replacement. So, I would say this service is highly unreliable. Thank you Sandra

    Kidsitter is a great company to work for part time. I have really enjoyed babysitting for the families that I have met. With the easily accessible online portal, I am able to flexibly accept and decline jobs to suit my schedule, and can use the calendar to select my availability. 5 stars!

    I have had great experience with Kidsitter and I don't hesitate to recommend them. I have used them on and off for about a year now. All the sitters I have used have been perfectly fine and some have been absolutely excellent- with sitters from any agency of course you will click with some more than others but I can happily say that there haven't been any problems with anyone. But what I have found sets Kidsitter apart from other agencies I have tried is the very personal service they offer. I have dealt directly (and often!!) with both Faisal and Margarita, and have found them receptive and super helpful in trying to accommodate any specific needs or requests, taking the time to get to know what my requirements are and really trying to work with me to fill them and to find someone who will be really appropriate for the job. They also always respond quickly (Margarita has even written back whilst on holiday!!) which is really great, especially as I have often needed very last minute baby sitting. Although they are a reasonably large agency I have been impressed at how "local" they feel. I continue to use them (and am able to book a really great lady on a regular basis through them) and totally recommend them if you are looking for either ad hoc or regular babysitting.

    I have been working with kidsitter for more than 6 months as a sitter and i couldnt be happer. I.highly recommend it to both parents looking for sitters and sitters looking for extra flexible income. The parents can be safe as all the sitters are face to face interviewed, checked and they have a very rigours process for sitters to join. Beside the safe fact comes how easy is to book someone just around your area evven with a short notice. And the price is just perfect. Now for sitters is amazing as is absolutly flexible and you can decide allways either to do a booking or not. The payments is extra effective and the price is just perfect. I recommend kiddsitter to all my network and i will keep working with them for muuuch longer.
