What Families Are Saying
Real reviews from real parents.
We've been trusted by San Diego families and visitors since 1981. Here's what they have to say.
Everything was perfect. Jessica arrived on time, the kids loved her and I felt comfortable leaving them in her care. I loved that they send a photo and a bio of the caregiver prior to arriving. We were highly satisfied and would definitely use this company again in the future.
Delma was terrific with our 11 month old and they got along wonderfully from the moment she arrived! I was nervous about our daughter being able to go to sleep without me but I didn't need to worry about a thing! Delma followed our routine and our daughter fell asleep quickly at her normal bedtime each night.
Caprice was wonderful. She brought toys and made our child feel comfortable right away. She texted me often with updates including sweet videos of their walk on the hotel grounds. She also created a little, cozy sleep nest of pillows and stuffed animals for our child on the large king sized bed. Fantastic service.
Our 18 month old was sick enough that he'd been to urgent care that morning, but Cori was unflappable. She arrived with a bunch of fun toys — the stuffed dog and truck were big hits. We were able to attend the wedding of our closest friends confident that our son was in good hands.



More From Our Families
Stories of trust.
Caprice just clicked with Chloe. She immediately started playing with her and really took the time to get to know her routines. Chloe loved her and didn't cry one bit while I was away. We were so pleased we asked for her a second night!
Karen brought all the right toys! Baby Kelly was very happy! We felt comfortable and at peace knowing our baby was in good hands. We felt the trust!
Dempsey had so much fun with her and was asking about her even when we got back home to Dallas. Thanks so much for all of your help setting us up with her!
We loved Kathy, and our boys clearly did too! Having her two days in a row helped all of us relax knowing they were in her capable hands.
Our children loved Maureen! She showed up with a suitcase and a lot of energy. I can't complement her enough on what a wonderful job she did. We are so grateful for her services.
Miss Linda had my daughters out of the hotel every day exploring the city and going swimming. She also brought fun crafts and activities. I got my work done knowing they were well cared for.
Just thought I'd let you know that the sitter, Ashley, might have been the best sitter my kids have EVER had. Well done!
My son who does not warm easily, warmed very quickly to Stacy. Both kids didn't seem to care when we left both nights. When we returned we heard my son recount the games he played and the fun he had with the toys she brought.
I want to thank you for all you and your staff have done for us these last three years. Without all of you, our retreats would not have been successful. I look forward to continuing our partnership.
The booking process was very easy. Amy was very responsive and the rate was better than any other agency. Donna was amazing — she showed up on time and brought her own toys and books. She texted us throughout the night which was very reassuring.
Our sons were happy and well-rested after their time with her. When my meetings got done early, my older son insisted he still get to build a sand castle with Miss Paulina as they had planned.
Ann followed his regular night time routine and Oscar went to sleep without a hitch! As we left for the evening, Oscar happily looked at us and continued playing. We knew immediately he would be in great hands!
This was our first vacation with him and being in a hotel seemed to really scare him when we leave. Hayley did an AMAZING job calming him down and being prepared to entertain him. She did a really, really great job.
My wife and I were skeptical hiring an outside nanny, but our experience with Brittany was ideal and we are so thankful it went well. Thank you for your trusted services.
Caprice watched our fur-babies while we went to the Padres game. Our immediate impression was one of calm, gentle capability. Fantastic service, professional company. Wish there was a Sitterwise in every city we travel to!
Kirsten was AMAZING! Our kiddo woke up the next morning and the first thing he said was, "I had so much fun with the sitter last night!" She brought games and things to play outside. She was so kind and wonderful. 100% we will be using this service again!
Jen was amazing. It was our first time leaving our three month old baby and she put my mind at ease. She brought a suitcase full of fun and games for my 4 and 6 year olds. I would definitely use Sitterwise and Jen again.
Havilah was a fantastic babysitter for our 6 and 8 year old children. She took them to some of the best nature spots around the city and blended in a lot of thoughtful learning and story telling. Our kids miss her a bunch.
Brinkley communicated proactively leading up to and during the babysitting time, which gave us peace of mind. She planned well-rounded activities that kept them entertained and active around the hotel. Highly recommend her.
Kirsten put my kids at ease quickly and with great warmth. She was really great at adjusting to their moods and needs as things arose. She was also incredible at supporting my mom — their grandma — to have the fun time at the zoo she wanted but physically needed help doing.
Leslie is professional, kind, organized and super friendly. She instills confidence in you immediately yet still is warm. She came and sat with our puppies on Christmas Eve which allowed our family to enjoy special time together on our vacation.
Our daughter had a lot of fun with Andrea and seemed to warm up to her right away, which put my mind at ease. I appreciated that she checked in while I was gone to say everything was going smoothly.
Olivia came prepared with toys and games for the kids, took them to the park and followed all of our instructions for dinner and bed time. Our kids had a good time with her. She was outstanding!
Leslie was great! She's very kind and has a calm, loving maternal energy. Both of my kids really enjoyed spending time with her and felt very comfortable. She was also flexible when we needed to shift our schedule around.
I absolutely loved our caregiver. She was available on very short notice and I trust her completely with my children. She always comes prepared with toys and brings energy to play with them.
Emily was wonderful. Great with the kids, played with them, kept them busy. She even reached out to see if she could feed the dog dinner, so kind. The kids said she has been one of their favorites too!
Ms. Rita was great with our daughter and we have requested her again for our next backup care day. Rita is such a sweet lady.
She's very friendly, attentive and caring. I really appreciate her reliability and the extra effort she puts in.
