Donna H. Care Companion in Minneapolis, MN 55446

Donna cancelled on us ONE HOUR before she was supposed to show, causing me to miss an important event. Had she given us more notice, we could have found someone else but she left us without any options. Save yourself the time and hassle and hire someone else!!!

Donna did a great job with my two-month old, Scott. I currently live in Virginia and needed one-day of babysitting in Minneapolis because I was in a wedding. Donna picked the baby up at the wedding hotel, drove him to my hotel, and then took care of him for 8 hours.

Donna didn't even make it to the interview. After several conversations via email and phone, we finally settled on a day and time to meet. One which would have me rearrange my entire day and meet her back at my home. Our appointment was confirmed for 2:00 PM on a Friday. While I was at the doctor's office with my son at 10:59 am that same morning, I received a call from Donna that said she was outside my house waiting--she then readily admitted that she mixed up times with another family she was interviewing at 11 am. She then said she would meet me at my house at 2 pm. At 2:30 pm she hadn't come. I called Donna and I left a voicemail. WIthin minutes I received a text back from Donna that said she left me a voicemail. Since my phone had not rang, I checked and yes she left a voicemail at 1:00 pm that stated something had come up, and she would have to reschedule the interview.

To add to the story, the night before, my Nanny ad on SitterCity was going to expire, so I had to repost a new ad.

At 2:23 pm on the same day we were supposed to have the interview, Donna responded to my new ad, not knowing it was the same family. This is amazing, as the response came when we were supposed to be meeting! I immediately let her know that this was the same family she was supposed to be interviewing with --at the exact same time! Needless to say, Donna H., is unorganized, not reliable, and did not value my family's time.
