Elise has been our go-to babysitter for our two boys - 2 and 4 - for two years now. She handles the boys very well, and they end up behaving much better with her than with us! She is very punctual, and has no problem staying late (which often happens). She's great!

Elise has babysat for my one year old daughter several times. She is incredibly reliable and always comes on time. As a former elementary school teacher, I have high standards for when it comes to childcare. Elise has a natural rapport with children and whenever I have used her, I know that my daughter is in excellent hands!

Elise has watched our infant son (now 6 months) several times now, and we've been very happy. He fell asleep in her arms the first time she met him, so I was confident that he felt relaxed with her. Elise has proven to be very responsible, communicative, and reliable. She recently spent an entire day (9-6) with our little guy, she took him out in his stroller on a walk into town, and everything went great. Elise adores children - especially infants - and we will definitely use her again.

Elise was excellent. We met with her the day before we went out of town, and Isabella was instantly comfortable. She kept our daughter for an entire week. SHe took her on outings, cooked for her, and most importatnly kep is updated with pics, facetime, and text messages. We were truly blessed to find her at the last minute and would recommend her to anyone!! She was a delight.

Elise was our first sitter from this site and she was wonderful! She was very prompt in her responses in varied forms of communications (messages on here, phone calls, texting) and was very polite and respectful during our phone interview. She arrived on time and was very friendly when she met the kids. During the house tour, she asked lots of questions and made sure knew where everything she might need was located. When we arrived home, we found the house picked up- much cleaner than we left it, in fact! This really impressed me and when I asked how the night went, she gave me a detailed report on what she did with kids and how they behaved, I was even more pleased! This morning when I asked Anna (age 2) what she did with Miss Elise, she said "We played everything! Puzzles, drawing and toys! We read stories and then I went to sleep." I asked if she wanted her to come over and play again and she replied "Oh yes!" I will definitely be asking Elise to watch my children again.
