In Fall 2025, I decided to transition to in-home childcare because, to say the least, the daycare I was using was awful. My child would come home distressed, and my motherly instincts immediately told me something wasn't right. I started researching other options and came across Spotlight Sitters. From the very first phone call, I could tell this company was different. They carefully walked me through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and truly listened to my concerns. From there, they began searching for the right sitter for my family. What stood out most to me was the amount of time, care, and thoroughness they put into finding the perfect match. I had previously tried Care.com, but after our daycare experience, I just didn't feel comfortable having a random person come into my home. I wanted someone who would genuinely love and care for my child, not someone who would simply sit and watch TV all day. After about 2-3 weeks, we met our sitter over Zoom, and she was hands down one of the kindest people I've ever met. When we met in person to see if it was the right fit, she immediately connected with my daughter by playing with her and making her feel comfortable. She also shared her background and experience, which gave me even more confidence. As a working mom with a young child, mornings were always stressful. Between getting ready for work even remotely and trying to cook breakfast, I constantly felt rushed and overwhelmed. Our sitter now comes around 6-7 AM, makes my daughter breakfast, plays with her, and is incredibly sweet, patient, and caring. Nina and the entire Spotlight Sitters team consistently make sure we feel comfortable and supported. After the very first day, seeing the bond between my daughter and her sitter made me so happy and reassured me that I made the right decision. Since then, our experience has been wonderful. I could honestly write an entire essay about this company, but more than anything, I'm just grateful that there's a company out there that doesn't simply place a sitter and disappear. They continuously check in, make sure everyone is comfortable, and genuinely care about both the families and the babysitters they work with. Keep doing what you're doing, Spotlight Sitters. There are so many parents who truly need this kind of support and care. read more

As the CEO of a company and someone who works closely in recruitment, I've partnered with a lot of service providers over the years--but Spotlight Sitters has genuinely been one of the best experiences we've had. The impact they've made on the families we support has been incredible. From childcare to pet care, the level of attention and thoughtfulness really stands out. You can tell they care about getting things right. What really made a difference for us was the team and how smoothly everything was coordinated. We weren't dealing with constant back-and-forth, confusion, or unnecessary hurdles. The entire process felt clear, organized, and easy to navigate, which is rare and something we really value. Nina has a strong ability to match families with the right caregivers. Whether it's newborns, younger children, or teenagers, she approaches every placement with care and intention. She's professional, genuine, and easy to work with--which I think is a big part of what makes Spotlight Sitters different. With the added support of Spotlight Care Network, it's clear there's strong leadership behind the scenes and a team that knows how to deliver consistently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Spotlight Sitters to any family or organization looking for reliable, high-quality care. read more

I cannot even put into words how grateful I am for Spotlight Sitters. After my pet sitter from Rover canceled at the last minute, I was scrambling to find someone else--especially with my flight about to leave. I found Spotlight Sitters online and, unlike other companies that claim 24-hour service but aren't actually available, Spotlight Sitters came through. Nina answered my call and found me a pet sitter within an hour. I was so close to missing my flight, and I can't thank them enough for coming to the rescue when it mattered most. I absolutely hate boarding my animals. It's not just the worry of leaving them behind--it's the anxiety I see in my dog after each stay. He always comes back more stressed, and it breaks my heart because he's just not the same. I've tried every boarding facility out there, but Spotlight Sitters changed everything. My dog is now in special hands and thriving in his pet sitter's home. I get regular updates, and the best part is I can FaceTime or call the pet sitter anytime to check in and make sure everything's okay. Knowing my dog is happy, safe, and well cared for is such a relief. Thank you, Spotlight Sitters and Nina, for everything you do! read more

As a mother, my heart has never felt so full of gratitude for Spotlight Sitters. I was completely overwhelmed, searching through countless agencies and websites. It often felt like I was going down endless rabbit holes, meeting nannies who just weren't the right fit for my child. My child has autism, and finding someone who truly understands his needs has been one of the hardest challenges of my life. Many agencies didn't work for us because the caregivers didn't understand autism, there were very few options, or they weren't patient enough for his unique needs. From the moment we connected with Spotlight Sitters, my heart felt lighter. Nina's prompt check-ins, care, and attention to our family's needs have been nothing short of incredible. As a mother, I can't even describe the peace of mind it brings knowing my child is in such compassionate and capable hands. Our nanny is truly one of a kind, and my entire family loves her -- she is going to do amazing things. Nina and her team are impeccable. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this journey so much easier and filling our hearts with hope and joy. read more

Very prompt response. Nina asked me several questions about my pet's personality, habits, and needs, then worked diligently to match me with a home who would be perfect for my pet. Spirit spent a week with his sitter and loved it so much he almost didn't want to come home. His sitter, Helen, kept me updated during the first day to let me how Spirit was settling in, and continued to send texts throughout the week letting me know how he was getting along with her other pets. I am extremely happy with this service and Highly recommend Nina and her team to anyone who needs a pet sitter for their furry family. read more
