We needed a babysitter really quickly. Sylvia was able to host, and was able to keep the kids entertained enough for us to enjoy our time. All the kids talked about was how much fun they had. I've never heard them ask to go back to a sitter's house so much !!!! Thank you Sylvia!! You're certainly among the best. Will definitely pick again for the future!!!!
