WHY PARENTS PRAISE SITLY

How has a great sitter changed the lives of these families?

Chantal: “When Femke came for an interview, she almost immediately started to play with Zoé and Noah.”

Mariska: “Anna always sends me photos so I know how things are going. I really like that.”

Susanne: ”Because Larissa babysits one evening a week, we have time for each other again.”

Sabrina: “It’s nice that Hannah does the things with the kids that I can’t find the time to do.”

Mick: “Because Mick picks up Julian from school, he no longer has to go to after-school care.”

Sruthi

We highly recommend her as a babysitter. She is dependable, attentive, and communicates clearly with parents. She consistently provides excellent care and creates a safe, enjoyable environment for children. We have been very pleased with her services and would gladly hire her again.

Rosh

She has been an excellent babysitter for our family. She is punctual, responsible, and genuinely caring. She keeps our child engaged with fun and educational activities while ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. Her patience and positive attitude make her a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and dependable babysitter.

Sam, Essen • 19 June 2026

Roosmarijn

Rose is amazing. She is really great with our kid, always engaged, attentive and genuinely interested in playing with him, reading to him, taking him on walks and spending time with him. Our son (now 8 months old) really likes her and gets super excited when he sees her. She definitely has lots of experience with babies, you can see it in the calm way she interacts with the kid, even when she takes care of him for multiple hours. We could not have asked for a better babysitter. She is exceedingly trustworthy and we recommend her 1000%.

Julia, Essen • 13 June 2026

Sruthi

I can highly recommend Sruthi to families looking for a babysitter. She was a tremendous help assisting me in the mornings with my kids and helping make our daily routine run much more smoothly. She was always responsible, respectful, and reliable. What I appreciated most was her proactive approach—she was attentive and would step in to help when she noticed something needed attention, while always being respectful of my preferences. She also helped with a few household tasks and was very thorough and conscientious in everything she did.

Josefina, Essen • 1 June 2026

Sruthi

Sruthi is reliable, patient and very good with babies. We would recommend her to any family looking for some extra help.
