What our clients are saying...
Thank you so much! Our boys have been entertained and well-cared for by Mitzi and Sarahi. Having the extra helping hands with two active twin boys was invaluable! See you next year!
-Natasha Walsh, Ponte Vedre, FL (March 2022)
We cannot thank you enough! It was a relief to know that our girls were in good hands. Maru and Mitzi were so sweet with them and brought them coloring books!
-Melanie Mulligan, Winston-Salem, NC (January 2022)
Michelle,
I just wanted to let you know, Maru was super amazing! My kids love her and from their story Maru really loves kids!
-Kenny E., San Diego, CA (October 2021)
We traveled recently to PV with our 10 month old twin boys and 3 year old daughter. Michelle provided an awesome nanny (Izaya) who helped us every day over the course of our 2 week vacation. Without her help our vacation would have been a disaster! She had tons of energy and is great with kids. I giver her my highest recommendation and will definitely user her again!
- David A., Seattle, WA (December 2019)
Your services MADE out vacation…3rd year in a row.
All of our nannies have been reliable, fun and the kids loved them.
We were truly able to relax.
Thank you :)

-Bill P., Boston, MA (February 2019)
Thank you for sending us Monica to watch are son. She was truly fantastic. My son loved her. She is an amazing person and sitter. Regards,
-Carolyn and Dave L., Rancho Cucamonga, CA (January 2019)
My family found PV Babysitters when our son was one (2011) and have been using Michelle's service for the past 9 years as we return to PV every spring break. Michelle responds quickly by email to set up a sitter for the time you are staying in PV. Her sitters are fabulous and flexible on times. I would (and have) recommend PV babysitters to my friends and family. Mucho Gusto Michelle!!
-Kym Hughes, Chicago, IL (2011-2019)
Hi Michelle, I wanted to write before I forget that we are very thankful for the great care that our girls received from Verity and Maru. They did a wonderful job and the girls loved them. They made our vacation relaxing which was fantastic. Thanks again for everything and we'll surely contact you again next year if not before for childcare.
Take care,
-Lisa P. , San Francisco, CA (April 2017)
We had a great experience using Puerto Vallarta Babysitters for our recent vacation. Michelle was wonderful and very responsive in helping us find care for some additional time that we hadn't planned on. Maru watched our 2 1/2 year old daughter for three nights and she was amazing. She brought toys for her to play with each evening. One of the nights included Maru being onsite for a wedding. Maru was very professional and was wonderful in knowing when we needed her to help out and when to just hang out in the background. We will definitely use this service again!
-Megan Barker, Oakland, CA (November 2017)
We had an excellent experience during our stay in Punta Mita!
Maru was wonderful with our kids, played with them in the pool. We were very comfortable trusting her with our children and were able to truly enjoy our vacation with her help. Thank you again for everything!!
-Michelle Yasharpour, Los Angeles, CA (October 2015)
Maru was wonderful! She was always on time, she truly enjoyed our children and they just adored her. We will be back next year and will definitely be using your babysitting service again. It helped make our trip the perfect vacation!
Thanks so much!
-Carey D'Alessandro, Bay Area, CA (April 2015)
It was an absolute pleasure to deal with Michelle and our nanny, Maru. We spent close to a week in the Puerto Vallarta area for a wedding, and Maru always turned up promptly with bags of toys and a big smile. She taught our daughter a new song, and was very patient with her moods! We would absolutely recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters to friends visiting the area.
-Missy Kutcher, Melbourne, Australia (April 2015)
It was very comforting having such qualified babysitter, like Brenda, in a foreign land!
-Brian O'Neill, Telluride, CO (April 2015)
Hi Michelle, I want to take a minute and thank you for sending us Maru to babysit Lyla in Sayulita. She is such a sweet woman, and she was wonderful with my baby. I felt very comfortable with her, and knowing that Lyla was in good hands made our vacation so much more enjoyable. She was always prompt, professional, and kind. Maru is a gem, and you have a wonderful service that we will use again. Thank you again!
-- Melissa Turner, Chicago, IL (March 2015)
Hi Michelle, It's Tamar. Thank you for providing us with quality and reliable babysitting services. Maru was great with the kids and very pleasant with everyone. Brenda was a joy too. Muchas Gracias. Until next year...
-Tamar Thomas, San Francisco, CA (March 2015)
We loved working with PVB services while traveling to Sayulita and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Luz was gentle, kind and playful. Her experience in life and with kids was helpful as we experienced all that Sayulita had to offer. Kara became like family almost instantly. We had a wedding to attend in PV and brought her along. Her assistance created a space for us to feel confident that however our family was flowing she would flow with us. We are grateful and would absolutely use PVB’s services again if given the chance.
-Melinda Chandler, Dominical, Costa Rica (January 2015)
We used Puerto Vallarta Babysitting for two days for our 2 sons 2&1/2 and 9 mos. We had Melissa Garcia and she was great. This was the first time we've ever used a babysitting service while traveling (and even at home) so were a bit worried but our kids took to Melissa well and we felt very comfortable after meeting her The whole setup was easy. I communicated with Michelle the owner of the company via email before I got there and also email and phone once we arrived. Payment was very reasonable and simple: dollars, pesos, or PayPal. It made things very easy. I was able to text the babysitter while we were out to check in on things so we didn't spend our whole time out worrying about the kids. Overall an excellent experience and I would not hesitate to use their services again
-Stephan Lee, San Francisco, CA (December 2014)
Reliable, trustworthy, caring, loving and AMAZING. These are only some of the words I would use to describe Paola from Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. Paola came on time and immediately became part of the family. She was flexible, knowledgeable and ultimately the best babysitter i've EVER found for my son.She helped us with knowledge of the area, transportation options, restaurants and even where I could go get my nails done :) Best of all, she taught my son how to blow kisses. His grandmother was in heaven!
We will be DEFINITELY asking for Paola for our next PV visit. Thanks for providing a service that takes away ALL of the worry of finding childcare in a foreign place. It's invaluable!!
-Robin Bellinsky Braun, San Francisco, CA (August 2014)
We loved Puerto Vallarta Babysitters! All of the babysitters were extremely nice, great with the kids and spoke great English. We went to Punta Mita with two other couples and 6 kids total in our group. the kids in our group were all ages (1.5 yrs to 7) and they were great with all the kids. We planned out our schedule in advance and Michelle was so responsive and very organized. All the sitters were very punctual and even brought activities for the kids. i highly recommend them and definitely plan to use them again next time we are in the PV area.
-Tracy Massaro, California (April 2014)
We are repeat clients of Michelle's, our kids LOVE her and we couldn't be happier that we've found someone to rely on when we are vacationing. She and Brenda are kind, warm, fun, prompt, resourceful, and accommodating. They took the kids to the beach, brought toys, gave them meals and baths and put them to bed with no fuss. Quite honestly, we will keep coming to PV in part because we know we have great childcare there with Michelle! Thanks Michelle!
-Melissa McMahill, Chicago, IL (April 2014)
Thank you so much for your wonderful service. We had an amazing vacation in Puerto Vallarta and rented baby equipment from Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. Michelle was so kind to get back to me right away and only provide us with an pack and play, but a stroller since we forgot ours in LA. She immediately accommodated us on short notice. The same day she arrived within an hour after a contacted with both items. We met her personally and thought she was a very trustworthy and reliable person. Great agency and great service for anyone traveling to PV. Can highly recommend it.
-Best, Katia Rednikova, Los Angeles, California (April 2014)
Michelle, I would like to take a moment to thank Paola for the exceptional job she did while we were in Puerto Vallarta. The kids absolutely loved her. Her professionalism was impressive, she was prompt, listened to our instructions, and was very trustworthy! She fed them, took them swimming, dealt with their different personalities (2 1/2 and 3 1/2 years old) and, put them down for naps/ and to bed under unusual conditions. She was very flexible, brought them toys and was easy to work with. Overall, I am more than thrilled! Please feel free to use this as a reference... and pass this along to Paola. Thank you again for making our stay fantastic!
-Best, Jodi Madsen, Brooklyn, NY (March 2014)
Puerto Vallarta Babysitters were an outstanding team to work with on our last vacation to PV. Michelle was awesome in rescheduling sitters around so that our last minute requests could be accommodated. The girls (Brenda and Paola) she sent were outstanding in every way. They all spoke excellent English, almost to a native speaker level, and were great with our kids. They did not just sit back and watch them or keep them out of trouble, but also actively engaged with them and made sure they were also having a great time (besides us). Her pricing was also WAY more reasonable than the hotel we were staying at. I could not recommend PV Babysitters any stronger, and we will certainly be using their services again next year. Thanks Michelle for making our vacation much less stressful :)-Steve Thoma San Francisco, CA (March 2014)
My husband and I had only ever left our 4-month-old with her grandmother (once, for an hour) before our trip to PV so it's saying a lot that we trusted the wonderful young ladies (Brenda and Melissa) who babysat for her. They were very understanding about our initial, frequent checks but the more we saw how great they were with her, the more we were able to relax and enjoy some time alone. Thank you!
-Erin San Jose, CA (February 2014)
We were in Puerto Vallarta for a wedding at Hotel Playa Fiesta in February 2014, with our 3 kids (ages 7 years, 2.5 years and 5 months). The bride and groom kindly arranged babysitting - and they were wonderful! I wasn't sure what to expect and honestly thought I would depend on my parents (also travelling with us) to help watch the kids during the wedding reception. Not the case! Because of the babysitting service, we were able to enjoy dinner and the party afterward.
Two babysitters showed up promptly after the ceremony and introduced themselves. They both spoke perfect English, and were both students at a private university. In fact, one was actually an American citizen and worked for the airline we flew on. The babysitters watched our younger kids in our hotel room during dinner and the reception. Our older daughter stayed with us and joined the younger ones after dinner. The sitters came prepared with games and movies, and were able to get all 3 kids to bed. We felt comfortable since we were on the same property, and could check on the kids any time. I would highly recommend the service and would use them again.
-Judy V. Long Beach, CA (February 2014)
Puerto Vallarta Babysitters was the perfect service for our group of 6 adults and 5 children. Michelle was a pleasure to communicate with. She selected two professional, trustworthy, and kind babysitters that met our needs. We were able to enjoy a grown up night out on the town while Brenda and Izaya played with our children and made sure they got to bed on time. Everything from initial email to meeting the babysitters to coming back from our dinner went well. We will definitely use Puerto Vallarta Babysitters the next time we’re in town.
-Josh Puetz, San Francisco, CA (February 2014)
Michelle, we wanted to thank you for the wonderful experience we had with Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. The girls made our children feel comfortable. The wonderful care they provided allowed us parents to relax and further enjoy our holiday.Thanks,
-The Verstraete's , San Francisco, CA (February 2014)
I recently got married in Puerto Vallarta and my family used this babysitting service for my 2.5 year old niece with special needs. We had multiple events happening that week that would have been difficult for a 2.5 year old to sit through, thus requiring a family member to leave in order to watch her. My family was even able to take a whale watching tour, which never would have been possible without childcare. The sitters always came out to our resort on time and kept my niece entertained and happy, which can be hard to do. They even took her swimming, which she loved! I am so grateful that we hired Michelle and the other babysitters for our wedding trip! My mom, sister and I were able to relax, enjoy the day and the reception without having to worry! My niece was able to walk down the aisle as the flower girl and then go play with one of her new friends! I would definitely recommend using their service for any of your childcare needs.
-Brittany Hubbard, (January 2014)
Puerto Vallarta Babysitters provides an outstanding service. For four hours every day we left our two-and-a-half-year-old son with a sweet, energetic, experienced, and able babysitter with excellent (often native) English. We'd come back after a long walk on the beach, a massage, and a swim to find him playing happily. This made our vacation so much more relaxing: it gave us time to ourselves and allowed us to enjoy our son even more than usual when it was time for us to take over again. Highly recommended!
-Daphna and Jesse, California (December 2013)
Puerto Vallarta Babysitters is Awesome! I contacted Michelle a week prior to arriving and let her know my needs. She was able to help on everything. Michelle sat with our son one night and Brenda spent the day. They were both great and our son had a ball with them. He is asking for them now that we are back home! Michelle also had some excellent recommendations for "family friendly" restaurants to take our little guy to. Barracuda was the best. We enjoyed our dinner while he played in the sand right by the table. Our little guy is teaching his playmates Spanish
that Michelle & Brenda helped him with! I would def. recommend PVB to a friend and on our next trip to PV we will be calling Michelle!
-Kym Hughes, Chicago, IL (March 2013)
My daughter keeps asking, "when can Michelle be our babysitter again?" I wish! Michelle was great! She returned my inquiry call promptly, navigated the two different resorts we stayed at, offered great restaurant recommendations, and brought toys for my kids to play with and use the whole time we were there. She watched our kids four different times, and cooked dinner for the kids and put them to bed without any issues. We were initially hesitant to leave them with a complete stranger but I liked Michelle right away and felt totally comfortable with her. We usually like to travel to different places each year, but honestly, our future vacation plans will be in Puerto Vallarta in large part due to Michelle. Thanks!!
--Melissa, Phil, Delaney and Ryan, Wicker Park , IL (March 2013)
Puerto Vallarta Babysitters was a great service for my 19 month daughter. We had someone come to our hotel room twice a day in order to have some couples time and it worked out beautifully. The caregivers were kind and played with my daughter. They did various activities with them and even learned some colors in Spanish. I highly recommend this service.
-Marcela Salazar, Washington DC (March 2013)
Michelle and Brenda are absolutely fantastic! They looked after our 4 young children while we had a grown ups night out. Before we arrived in Mexico I had looked into a few other babysitting sites, Michelle was the most prompt with her answers and so friendly and professional that I decided they would be the best agency to go with. At first I was nervous about leaving our children but Michelle took away any of my worries and concerns right away. They showed up with activities, movies and games for the kids and right away I could see they would be fine. Every night after that the kids kept asking if Brenda and Michelle were coming to play with them today! I would absolutely recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters as they are experienced, professional and wonderful. Thank you. x
-Kate Leslie Canada (February 2013)
Hello Michelle! Back in the U.S. and missing Puerto Vallarta already! I also wanted to take a moment to tell you how wonderful it was to have you sit with Anna and Jonathan last week. The kids enjoyed having you for the afternoon and it was a great peace of mind for me to know they were in such good hands. We are planning on making the trip to PV again next year. Most parents share the same reservations about leaving their child with someone they don't know. Especially when you are out of the country. I would love people to know what a wonderful experience we had and would trust you to come and sit with our kids again on future trips. I immediately felt at ease after meeting you and knew you would look after them with great care. I would definitely recommend your services to anyone traveling to Puerto Vallarta, Thanks again and take care,
-Heather Lynk, Iowa, USA (February 2013)
We were very satisfied with the Equipment (pack and play, booster) we rented for a week at the Icon. My wife would like to know what kind and make of soap you use for the sheets because it smell soooooo good! Thanks again!
-Jean-Charles Mantha, Canada (February 2013)
Hi Michelle! We were absolutely thrilled you and Brenda came up to Mismaloya to play with Luc both nights! He asked us on Monday if you or Brenda were coming to play again. We were able to go into Puerto Vallarta and enjoy great food and music and we felt totally confident Luc was in your hands. I am already planning our next trip to Puerto Vallarta because Luc had such a great time with his babysitters both nights!
Sincerely,
-Ingrid Appleby, Charleston, South Carolina (January 2013)
We were very pleased with Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. Michelle selected two excellent sitters for our 2.5 year old boy, and we appreciated the time it allowed us to have on our holiday. I’d highly recommend their services to anyone
in need of quality child care.
-Jay, SaraJane and Sebastian Brooklyn NY (January 2013)
We were vacationing in Puerto Vallarta over Thanksgiving and were referred to Puerto Vallarta Babysitters by a friend. While we were a bit hesitant about using a complete stranger in a foreign country, we were quickly reassured upon
meeting both Michelle and Brenda. We immediately knew we were in good hands. Michelle and her team were great with my son. They were on time and kept him happy and engaged while he was awake and got him changed, fed and to sleep. We plan to hire them again on our trip next month. I highly recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters.
-Belinda, Hermosa Beach, CA (November 2012 & January 2013)
Puerto Vallarta Babysitter's babysitting service was the icing on the cake of a fantastic week in Puerto Vallarta. The service was so cost effective that I was able to get a sitter 3 nights! Our sitter, Brenda, was on time, lovely, and
dependable. My son loved her and so did we! We will happily not only use Pueto Vallarta Babysitter's babysitting service next we are in PV, we will also recommend it to our friends. Thanks, Michelle,
-Diane Shulman, Atlanta, Georgia (October 2012)
We were traveling to Puerto Vallarta with several other families for summer vacation. We had been struggling to find a nanny to bring with us for our kids (ranging from 8mo to 5 years). I found Puerto Vallarta Babysitters online and
was ecstatic! However, being a very protective mother and traveling abroad, I was very nervous. Our plan was to use the service at our villa only or have the sitter travel with us around town so our children were with us always. After
meeting Michelle the first time, I left her on the 4th floor of the villa while we (the adults) lounged by the pool. I was immediately comfortable with her. She is from the States and is fluent in both English and Spanish andvery professional! After 2 days, we left the villa and left the kids with her there. She gave us ZERO reasons to be apprehensive. We also had the pleasure of meeting Brenda who watched the kids on several occasions during our 2 week stay. I would highly recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. The cost was reasonable, the service was fantastic and the girls were truly like 2nd mothers to our children. We will surely use them when we go back!
-Megan Lewman Florida, USA (June 2012)
My husband and I were extremely nervous when we found out we had to attend a family wedding in PV and would have to find a sitter.We found out about PV Babysitters and arranged for Michelle to watch our children during both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding. These were both long events and would include feeding the children dinner and doing bedtime routines.
Right before Michelle arrived, our three year old started getting very upset that we were going to be leaving. I started
getting worried. But as soon as Michelle arrived, the kids were happy as clams. Michelle brought books and arts and crafts and the children had a really fun time with her. They didn't get sad at all that we were going out. Dinner and nighttime routines went smoothly and they went to sleep on time.
Michelle was friendly, professional, wonderful with the children, and we loved that she brought things to do with the
kids.My husband said, "she's the best baby sitter we've ever had!" and we're in a 13 member baby sitting co-op, where the moms are our babysitters!
We highly, and without and reservation, recommend PV Babysitting Services and would not hesitate to hire them
again.Thanks, again, Michelle, for making our stay so enjoyable and worry free! Priceless! :)
-Michelle Beare, San Francisco (May 2012)
My husband and I took our baby daughter to PV in June 2012 when she was 5 months old. We were
very excited to find a baby gear rental service in PV so we wouldn't have to bring all of her stuff with us. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Michelle at PV Babysitters. She always responded to our emails promptly and
professionally, and we felt from the start that her service would be a great one.
We ordered a Pack 'n Play, beach tent, and Jumperoo for the week, and Michelle included a
floatie toy for the pool as a freebie. When we mentioned that our room had no fridge, she let us borrow a cooler for the week, which was extremely nice of her! She delivered and picked up the gear without a service charge, and it was nice to get to meet her in person. She even gave us great recommendations for local restaurants and activities! Our daughter had a blast with the Jumperoo and floatie toy, and it definitely made our trip more enjoyable to know that our baby was having fun.
We plan to visit PV on a yearly basis, and will definitely plan to order gear through Michelle and PV babysitters again. Next time we'll probably use the babysitting service too, because we feel that Michelle is very trustworthy, and her rates are a lot more reasonable than what the resorts charge!
Thank you, Michelle, for helping make our trip so easy and enjoyable!
-Sincerely, Dana & Eric Simpson Portland, Oregon (June 2012)
Hi Michelle, I want to take a minute and thank you for sending us Maru to babysit Lyla in Sayulita. She is such a sweet woman, and she was wonderful with my baby. I felt very comfortable with her, and knowing that Lyla was in good hands made our vacation so much more enjoyable. She was always prompt, professional, and kind. Maru is a gem, and you have a wonderful service that we will use again. Thank you again!
-- Melissa Turner, Chicago, IL (March 2015)
Hi Michelle, It's Tamar. Thank you for providing us with quality and reliable babysitting services. Maru was great with the kids and very pleasant with everyone. Brenda was a joy too. Muchas Gracias. Until next year...

She watched our kids four different times, and cooked dinner for the kids and put them to bed without any issues. We were initially hesitant to leave them with a complete stranger but I liked Michelle right away and felt totally comfortable with her. We usually like to travel to different places each year, but honestly, our future vacation plans will be in Puerto Vallarta in large part due to Michelle. Thanks!!

Puerto Vallarta Babysitters was a great service for my 19 month daughter. We had someone come to our hotel room twice a day in order to have some couples time and it worked out beautifully. The caregivers were kind and played with my daughter. She did various activities with them and even learned some colors in Spanish. I highly recommend this service.

Michelle and Brenda are absolutely fantastic! They looked after our 4 young children while we had a grown ups night out. Before we arrived in Mexico I had looked into a few other babysitting sites, Michelle was the most prompt with her answers and so friendly and professional that I decided they would be the best agency to go with. At first I was nervous about leaving our children but Michelle took away any of my worries and concerns right away. They showed up with activities, movies and games for the kids and right away I could see they would be fine. Every night after that the kids kept asking if Brenda and Michelle were coming to play with them today! I would absolutely recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters as they are experienced, professional and wonderful. Thank you. x

Hello Michelle! Back in the U.S. and missing Puerto Vallarta already! I also wanted to take a moment to tell you how wonderful it was to have you sit with Anna and Jonathan last week. The kids enjoyed having you for the afternoon and
it was a great peace of mind for me to know they were in such good hands. We are planning on making the trip to PV again next year. Most parents share the same reservations about leaving their child with someone they don't know.
Especially when you are out of the country. I would love people to know what a wonderful experience we had and would trust you to come and sit with our kids again on future trips. I immediately felt at ease after meeting you and knew you would look after them with great care. I would definitely recommend your services to anyone traveling to Puerto Vallarta, Thanks again and take care,

We were very satisfied with the Equipment (pack and play, booster) we rented for a week at the Icon. My wife would like to know what kind and make of soap you use for the sheets because it smell soooooo good! Thanks again!

Hi Michelle! We were absolutely thrilled you and Brenda came up to Mismaloya to play with Luc both nights! He asked us on Monday if you or Brenda were coming to play again. We were able to go into Puerto Vallarta and enjoy great food and music and we felt totally confident Luc was in your hands. I am already planning our next trip to Puerto Vallarta because Luc had such a great time with his babysitters both nights!

We were very pleased with Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. Michelle selected two excellent sitters for our 2.5 year old boy, and we appreciated the time it allowed us to have on our holiday. I’d highly recommend their services to anyone
in need of quality child care.

We were vacationing in Puerto Vallarta over Thanksgiving and were referred to Puerto Vallarta Babysitters by a friend. While we were a bit hesitant about using a complete stranger in a foreign country, we were quickly reassured upon meeting both Michelle and Brenda. We immediately knew we were in good hands. Michelle and her team were great with my son. They were on time and kept him happy and engaged while he was awake and got him changed, fed and to sleep. We plan to hire them again on our trip next month. I highly recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters.

Puerto Vallarta Babysitter's babysitting service was the icing on the cake of a fantastic week in Puerto Vallarta. The service was so cost effective that I was able to get a sitter 3 nights! Our sitter, Brenda, was on time, lovely, and dependable. My son loved her and so did we! We will happily not only use Puerto Vallarta Babysitter's babysitting service next we are in PV, we will also recommend it to our friends. Thanks, Michelle,

We were traveling to Puerto Vallarta with several other families for summer vacation. We had been struggling to find a nanny to bring with us for our kids (ranging from 8mo to 5 years). I found Puerto Vallarta Babysitters online and
was ecstatic! However, being a very protective mother and traveling abroad, I was very nervous. Our plan was to use the service at our villa only or have the sitter travel with us around town so our children were with us always. After meeting Michelle the first time, I left her on the 4th floor of the villa while we (the adults) lounged by the pool. I was immediately comfortable with her. She is from the States and is fluent in both English and Spanish andvery professional! After 2 days, we left the villa and left the kids with her there. She gave us ZERO reasons to be apprehensive. We also had the pleasure of meeting Brenda who watched the kids on several occasions during our 2 week stay. I would highly recommend Puerto Vallarta Babysitters. The cost was reasonable, the service was fantastic and the girls were truly like 2nd mothers to our children. We will surely use them when we go back!

My husband and I were extremely nervous when we found out we had to attend a family wedding in PV and would have to find a sitter.We found out about PV Babysitters and arranged for Michelle to watch our children during both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding. These were both long events and would include feeding the children dinner and doing bedtime routines.
Right before Michelle arrived, our three year old started getting very upset that we were going to be leaving.
I started getting worried. But as soon as Michelle arrived, the kids were happy as clams. Michelle brought books and arts and crafts and the children had a really fun time with her. They didn't get sad at all that we were going out.
Dinner and nighttime routines went smoothly and they went to sleep on time.
Michelle was friendly, professional, wonderful with the children, and we loved that she brought things to do with the
kids.My husband said, "she's the best baby sitter we've ever had!" and we're in a 13 member baby sitting co-op,
where the moms are our babysitters. We highly, and without and reservation, recommend PV Babysitter's Babysitting Services and would not hesitate to hire them again.Thanks, again, Michelle, for making our stay so enjoyable and worry free! Priceless! :)

My husband and I took our baby daughter to PV in June 2012 when she was 5 months old. We were
very excited to find a baby gear rental service in PV so we wouldn't have to bring all of her stuff with us. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Michelle at PV babysitters. She always responded to our emails promptly and
professionally, and we felt from the start that her service would be a great one.
We ordered a Pack 'n Play, beach tent, and Jumperoo for the week, and Michelle included a floatie toy for the pool as a freebie. When we mentioned that our room had no fridge, she let us borrow a cooler for the week, which was extremely nice of her! She delivered and picked up the gear without a service charge, and it was nice to get to meet her in person. She even gave us great recommendations for local restaurants and activities! Our daughter had a blast with the Jumperoo and floatie toy, and it definitely made our trip more enjoyable to know that our
baby was having fun.
We plan to visit PV on a yearly basis, and will definitely plan to order gear through Michelle and PV babysitters again. Next time we'll probably use the babysitting service too, because we feel that Michelle is very trustworthy, and her rates are a lot more reasonable than what the resorts charge! Thank you, Michelle, for helping make our trip so easy and enjoyable!
