We utilized District Sitter event childcare for young children at our hotel while parents attended a day of advocacy at congressional buildings & meetings with senators. A day when you need childcare! The service was professional from my first phone call with them. Our sitters were on time and came with great activities. They handled the day. The children had a wonderful time and some did not want to leave at pickup time! I own a childcare agency myself and I know what it looks like when a childcare service prioritizes safety, sincerely cares about customer service, and cares about their staff. I recommend District Sitter.

Highly recommend using District Sitters for your childcare needs! I was nervous about having someone watch my 8 month old son, but the District Sitters team was so kind and professional that they put my nerves to rest right away! My son loved everyone from District Sitters and had so much fun with them. I received thorough updates from the DS team that helped me feel in the loop and totally at ease. I will use their services anytime I’m in the DC area in the future!

District Sitter is fantastic not just for families, but caregivers as well. I'm a Career Nanny and was looking for my next family. District Sitter, especially Jessika and Eugenia, are great. I could tell they cared about me as the nanny having a great fit and not just the family. I would highly recommend District Sitter. I have found a great family I am sure I will be with for years.

District Sitter has been wonderful to work with. They placed us with reliable, qualified and warm sitters. We've always received clear, timely and helpful information about their services and general education about the nanny market to aid us in making our decision. Thank you district sitter!

Working with District Sitter has been a game changer!

The sitters we worked with were incredible. They were timely, professional, and caring and attentive with the children. Our event ran smoothly because our community felt comfortable and confident that their children were well cared for.
