Edinbairns saved our vacation!

Visiting Edinburgh from the U.S. with our 2 children (1y.o. and 2y.o.) and Edinbairns provided last-minute care for both that extended through the week of our stay. The kids absolutely loved it, and by the second day our 2y.o. was already excited to leave in the morning and wanted to stay and play longer at pick-up time. We were provided frequent updates on how they were doing, what they were eating, and received tons of pictures. Samantha was really wonderful with being flexible with our times, especially when we would get lost and would run a little late for pickup, and even gave us lots of recommendations for things to do and places to eat in Edinburgh during our 'child-free' hours. The kids were given nice balanced meals, and plenty of time of both inside and outside play, and generally had a fantastic time.

Fantastic experience

Sarah helped us out with evening child care so my wife and I could have our first "night out" since our youngest was born. With both toddlers being born during the pandemic, they have never had a "babysitter put-down" with a stranger before, so we weren't sure how it was going to go (and tbh were expecting a meltdown before getting out the door...).

However, all worries were gone from the very first meeting as we were put at ease by Sarah's professionalism and obvious knowledgeability/ intuition towards interacting with small children -- they both warmed up to her faster than I have ever seen from them, and within a few minutes our oldest (who normally has stranger anxiety) was running all over the house to show her his favorite toys. The kids had a fantastic time, all instructions were followed, and just an all around great experience.

Thanks!
