“I highly recommend Aloha Nanny! While on vaction in Kona, we called that morning for a sitter that evening to watch 3 children: two 5 year olds and a 3 year old. Their rates were affordable (almost everyone on the island is $20/hr + $2/hr per extra child + $10 transportation fee… 5 hour minimum) and the sitters are background checked, first aid trained.
Adrienne brought a roller bag full of toys and games! She tailored the toys to the age and gender of the children and each child got a bag. They spread them out on hotel beds and they immediately started playing! She had an emergency form to fill out with emergency contact info, asked questions about bedtime routine and then went right back to playing. Adrienne was fully engaged with the kids and we were able to head out without any tantrums! Adrienne even texted us half way thru the evening to let us know the status of the kids’ bedtime and how they did up to that point. The kids were sound asleep when we got back to the hotel!
The next morning, our kids asked when Adrienne was coming back. That’s the ultimate sign of a great sitter, right? I’d definitely recommend Aloha Nanny if you are looking for a day or night out with no worries about your childrens’ fun or safety.”
