Testimonials

See what our Find-A-Sitter families say!

Hands down the BEST babysitting service I’ve ever had. I’ve been exclusive with FAS for years now and have never had a poor or mediocre experience. My children absolutely love it when I tell them “FAS is hanging with you today/tonight/this weekend” … they are always SO excited! Communication before, during and after: top notch. Carmen and her team know what grade A experience and care is all about and they deliver every time!

As a parent, finding someone trustworthy to care for your kids is never easy, but this service has been such a blessing for our family. They took the time to understand what we needed and matched us with sitters who are kind, dependable, and truly care about our kids. My children look forward to their time with them, which says it all. The peace of mind this has given me is priceless.

Christine S. St. Louis · Google review

I’m typically pretty picky about letting anyone I’m not extremely familiar with watch our kids, but I’m so glad I gave this service a chance. Every girl we’ve been sent is beyond amazing. They are all personable, respectful, and the kids have loved each one. When the kids are asking you to leave already so they can go play with the babysitter, that makes it much easier!

Samantha C. St. Louis · Google review

The entire process was seamless from start to finish, and it made finding someone trustworthy feel so easy. They clearly take the time to vet their sitters, which gave me a lot of confidence going into it. If you’re in Oxford and need a sitter, I would absolutely recommend Find a Sitter.
