We needed a sitter outside of our family, last minute, for the first time! We have two year old twins and to say I was stressed is an understatement! The moment Lydia called (we messaged probably 15 sitters rapidly in the morning), I was at ease. She has lots of experience in the pre-school age range. Lydia brought fun activities and I know my babies really appreciated exploring new crafts and fun ?? Attentive and informative. Communicated well while I was at work, put me at ease. Helped with the transition coming home. We will call again.
