Metropolitan Sitters459

As a busy mom to three kids on the Upper East Side, I want to take a moment to tell potential clients that Metropolitan Sitters is the BEST babysitting service in Manhattan! We have tried other services in NYC and been SADLY disappointed. But with Metropolitan Sitters, we have been treated professionally with AMAZING babysitters who are punctual and LOVE their jobs! My kids frequently ASK for a babysitter now! With other agencies, you get a different, disgruntled employee every time. With Metropolitan Sitters, you get an experienced babysitter who consistently displays more energy than seemingly possible! Why am I taking the time out of my busy day to tell you this? Mostly because I am SO HAPPY to have found a GREAT babysitting service in NYC after being stood up by other agencies. GO METROPOLITAN SITTERS!!

would like to speak with someone from the agency regarding their sitters , if they are bonded, interviewed and with background checks. are the families also checked as it could be potentially dangerous to send sitters to homes that have not been prescreened. Please email info to rossenb@aol.com

I would like to address the two posts below, both of which are not from actual clients. Metropolitan Sitters is a boutique babysitting service which employs its sitters. It is not an employment agency which places nannies for a fee, nor is it an in home group childcare. Because it is neither of these two things, neither the DCA nor the Bureau of Childcare regulate it or require licensing. Our goal is not to simply find a match for a sitter, collect a fee and move on; rather it is to establish long lasting relationships with families. This is what sets us apart from large nanny placement agencies. If any families would like to speak to one of our actual clients or sitters to hear more about how great our sitters are or how much time we put in to make sure we only hire the best sitters around, we would be more than happy to facilitate that conversation.

A stay at home mom running a business out of her Apartment and not licensed with the city is wrong. I assume she doesnt even run a background check or screen her "sitters".

I also already contacted the city to shut them down

Recently used this service while on vacation in New York City for my infant son. I was a little nervous at first but both sitters turned out to be wonderful!

I asked the sitter if the "agency" interviewed her, and she said no. I should have known by the cheap price and cell number for the business. What a disappointment!

Very convenient and punctual. My wife and I use them on weekends when we go out. My daughter has loved all the sitters.

Having recently given birth to my 2nd child, I decided I needed some extra help on nights and weekends. I couldn't be happier with my experience with Metropolitan Sitters. The sitters have all been so great with my kids and the owner seems to really understand my needs. Plus, it's so convenient! Just a quick call or email and I have a wonderful sitter at my disposal.

My experience so far with Metropolitan Sitters has been excellent! All of the sitters have been great and are wonderful with my children. I would definitely recommend this service to any of my friends.
