Not only has it helped my life when I need an extra set of hands, but all three of my children have created friendships with these ‘big friend/counselor type’ wonderful capable young women.

“One day I had a big presentation for work first thing in the morning so my mother was going to come down from upstate New York to take care of my daughter. Well at 3 a.m. it started snowing up there and was so terrible by 6 a.m. that she couldn’t even get the car down her driveway! So, after initially panicking, I opened my Hello Sitter app and had someone confirmed and at my door by 8:30 a.m.! Oh and the presentation turned out great!”
