Maria & Ana 
Introduction
Maria had an instant connection with her childminder Ana. “From the start, she knew how to comfort me and ease my mind by sending photos of Isabela.”
MARIA (PARENT):
“I think it is important that Isabela meets other kids and learns to play with them. But I thought a daycare center was too big so I searched for a childminder. I really liked Ana from the start.”
MARIA (PARENT):
“The first few weeks, Isabela cried a lot. I felt really guilty, because I thought I just dumped my crying kid at someone else’s place for her to deal with. But Ana handled it really well. She comforted me as well as my daughter, sent me messages about how it was going, and sent me photos of Isabela. She’s actually still doing that; I really like that.”
ANA (CHILDMINDER):
“Maria and I have a great bond, we can tell each other everything. Isabela is really great too. I can see that she likes having other kids around to play with. Every time Isabela enters a new phase of life, we can discuss it really well and talk about how we’ll handle it. Last week, I received a video from Maria, showing that Isabela started to walk at home. We were both cheering for Isabela!”
WHY PARENTS PRAISE SITLY
How has a great sitter changed the lives of these families?
Camelia: “When Flori came for an interview, she almost immediately started to play with Alina and Matei.”
Jeni: “It’s nice that Irina does the things with the kids that I can’t find the time to do.”
Corina: “Because Mihaela picks up Ioan from school, he no longer has to go to after-school care.”
