Delaney M.

Had a great experience working with Delaney for ou first time using Sittercity and hiring a non-family babysitter to watch our 7 month old son and 2 year old daughter. She responded quickly to the job we posted on the site with a clear, detailed, and relevant response summarizing her experience working with children the same age as ours. She communicated her availability and was able to support a late evening phone interview before booking. She was able to answer all of our questions clearly during the phone interview and asked relevant questions we hadn't thought of around the children's allergies, interaction with pets, and temperament/preferences. On the day of the job, she arrived on time, listened carefully and asked clarifying questions while discussing routines/instructions, and made us feel comfortable leaving the children in her care. Both children warmed up to her and she was able to take them for a walk to the park and play with them at home. She handled feeding the 2 year old dinner, bottle-feeding and changing the infant, and putting them both to bed without any difficulty and provided us with updates while we were out and when we returned. Our daughter was excited talking about the fun she had with Delanay the following day, and we would definitely work with her again for our childcare needs.
