River City Sitters- On call Babysitting Service, Raleigh, Wilmington North Carolina, Richmond Virginia

Catherine, Richmond Va
We were crazy about Anne! She was so nice and "rolled with us" easily---when she first walked in, things were pretty hectic. Pleasetell Anne she did a wonderful job and she should know all the children slept through the night! What a smooth and simple process. Thanks so much!

We had Megan Grossman sit for us yesterday and today and she was wonderful! We were thrilled. My son was a bit under the weather and she was amazingly patient, kind and understanding! Thank you for your help and for sending Megan to us on two difficult days. She was awesome and did your organization proud!

I just wanted to write and let you know how pleased I am. I first started using RCS around christmas when my regular sitter got a job and left me with very short notice. I talked with Michelle on the phone many times and am now using the online sitter request system.
I am just so impressed with your service. I was nervous at first that there would be people watching my son whom I had never met. But my work schedule necessitates the situation. Every sitter you have sent me has been great, very friendly and responsible. I have more than a few times called on Michelle for a very short notice sitter when my work schedule changes and she has come through every single time.
I have recommended your service to many other moms that I know and just wanted to let you know how much your work is appreciated. Being a single working mom, this is the most helpful thing for me and I haven't found any sitting solution in Richmond that's better. Thanks!

Just wanted to let you know that things went great with Denise today - I really liked her - she was great with the kids, clearly an experienced mother. I am definitely interested in having her sit again, so will ask for her when we need nighttime and weekend sitters (I know she's not always available, but would love to have her back when she is)

Lorrie, Richmond Va

I am very pleased with Amanda's approach with Elena. Even on days when Elena wants to cling to mama, Amanda has become very good at distracting Elena by
finding fun things to do or games to play. She takes the lead and that makes
me feel confident that while I'm working on my projects they are out having
fun together. She's absolutely wonderful. When I tell Elena that Amanda is coming over, she waits at the front storm door in anticipation. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter.

I want to make sure that you know that Michelle has been a joy to work with….she was when we started with you all 4 years ago (gosh has it been that long J) and continues to be helpful.

Renee, Greensboro NC

Laura was wonderful and our daughter cried even more when we told her that Laura would not be coming to take care of them (and take them for a swim!) on Saturday night.....such a six year old! The children loved her and we were comfortable with her from the first meeting. She was caring, knowledgeable and really had the kids wrapped around her finger by the end of the night.

This was our first trip to Richmond, but we hope to return and would definitely use your services again.

Kym, Richmond VA
You guys are just incredible. I have advertised your services to everyone I meet. Every one of our sitters has been top notch and it has made Jackson's transition to a completely new environment so much better!

'River City Sitters has proven time and time again that they only have very qualified sitters ready to provide my daughters exceptional and safe care. They have worked with me for almost two years for my 2.5 year old and our new 5 month old. My oldest daughter has loved each sitter and asked for them by name. The sitters all seem to truly love children and caring for them with their best interests at hand. I've been able to actively refer River City to many of my friends who are becoming moms and have only heard wonderful praise from them. As a working mom, it is of great comfort that I can send an e-mail and get a response within 24 hours of which sitters are available for my children. I always feel confident that each sitter can handle any crisis that may arise (although none have) and trust them explicitly to honor my parenting values and concerns.'

Jane, Richmond VA
I wanted you to know that we absolutely love these two fine young women. They provide such loving care for Lucie and Gray and are wonderful people to have in our home. We cannot thank you enough for introducing us to them. We feel so confident leaving our children in their hands. Thank you !!!

Gwenna, Richmond VA
Thanks for providing great sitters! I left your card with the people who bought
our house -- 3 kids! Good luck.

Kelly, Richmond Va
Wanted to let you know how things went on Fri. We loved Rebekah. She was right on time, very energetic, and clearly seemed to enjoy children . Anyway, another sitter to add to the list that we'd have back. We have been happy with everyone you have sent us so far! Thank you."

Linda, Richmond VA

Just wish to say how happy we were with Valerie! The girls loved her and feel so comfortable with her. My daughter was very pleased, we will ask for her again.

Marianne, Richmond VA

Thanks so much for sending Katie over to sit with the kids tonight - they LOVED her!! My daughter actually cried after she left, because she didn't want her to leave, and already wants to know when she can come back!!

Laura, Richmond VA

Hey Susanne, just wanted to let you know that the kids LOVED Valena and when they woke up this morning, immediately asked if she could sit again! Thank you so much - we had a GREAT first experience with RCS!!!!

Amy, Richmond VA
Thank you for your help this week - Rachael was great and hope we can grab her again. Also, thank you for you quick response and immediate help - I have sent your/RCS info to the rest of my son's child-care and told them to utilize you if they need back up. You helped make a very stressful week easier.
