Danielle is a great babysitter. Very flexible, she was able to come over day of request. She is gentle with the children, and my daughter has no complaints. I recommend Danielle, and plan on using utilizing her services in the future.

Danielle has saved me a couple times when I was in desperate need of a sitter! When our regular day care provider became ill, my husband happened to be away at training for two weeks. I work full-time and Danielle was able to work her schedule out to help watch my kids so I could still go to work. Also, she was more than happy to come watch my little girls while I went grocery shopping, because all moms know how much easier and faster it is to not have the kids! We originally hired her for date night but she has become more than that within the first few weeks of hiring her! My girls love her and had no issues transitioning with a new sitter. She is open and honest and will tell me the truth if the girl's misbehave (which I like because I know my kids are no angels). She has been willing to work with our oldest on potty training as well to try and keep her on a schedule. She has a wonderful personality and interacts with my kids just as I would. I Would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing in-home care for their children.

Easy going and very comfortable with children. Responsible, responsive and dependable. She kept in touch as asked (texted me when daughter was asleep), and very courteous (texted when only a few minutes away and then when arrived at our hotel). Wish she lived in our area. I will definitely rehire her when we go to Williamsburg again! Lovely person and great with our daughter (ps-she sat down and immediately engaged with our 5-y old as she was drawing a picture). Delightful and I would highly recommend her! She knows what she's doing!

Danielle was very professional. She did a great job with our 5 and 7 year old. Our house was even cleaner when we got home than when we left. :)
