As the founder and owner of Destination Sitters, LLC, an entrepreneur for over 20 years, and the mother of two children, I strongly believe that family comes first. Especially when traveling away from home, there is nothing like the peace of mind that comes from getting great professional help to care for your children.
I founded Destination Sitters, LLC in 2008 with the goal of helping people traveling to San Diego, Orange and Los Angeles Counties hire excellent sitters to help care for their family. An excellent sitter is one who is experienced, secure, dependable, and trustworthy and who loves children. The sitters whom we refer are all that and more.
As a mother of two, I understand how vital it is to match the right person with the right family. Our goal is not only to identify your needs, but to exceed your expectations! I have learned how to do that throughout my career, which has spanned two decades in running successful design, marketing, sales and construction firms. Integrity and high standards always come first. By emphasizing this as well as respect and quality, my team of sitters and I have been highly successful.
In 2008, when my oldest daughter went to college, and my son and I moved to La Jolla, I realized that there was no service offering consistently high quality sitters to help me with my son, and I decided to fill that need myself with Destination Sitters, LLC. My own experience in hiring and firing professional and domestic staffs over the years has helped me understand the need for a prestigious agency to be firmly established in Southern California with a standard second to none. I ran a very successful interior design firm for 23 years, which led to my being published in major magazines, books and newspapers. In addition, I was a featured designer for three years on the highly-praised HGTV television show “Curb Appeal.” Only by consistently emphasizing integrity, respect and quality was such success achieved.
As an entrepreneur, I often had to make sure that my children were properly cared for, and I accepted none but the very best. Our Destination Sitters referrals are the very best, too. We are licensed and insured and cater to families and businesses that are looking for a dependable and easy solution to hiring the best quality sitters for their children. As well as being a trusted resource for families, Destination Sitters, LLC is thankful to be serving 100+ prestigious hotels in the San Diego and Orange County areas, such as the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay, the Hilton Bayfront, Estancia, the Hotel Parisi, La Costa, L’Auberge, Rancho Bernardo Inn, the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe, Marriott Harbor & Marina, US Grant, The Keating, Hilton Torrey Pines, The Lodge at Torrey Pines, Loews Coronado Bay Resort, Marriott Coronado, the Ivy, the Keating, the Bahia, Paradise Point Resort, La Jolla Shore and Beach & Tennis Club, the W Hotel, the Westins, Embassy Suites Dowtown, the Hyatt Regency Orange County, the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach, the Hilton Waterfront in Huntington Beach, the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach, Balboa Bay Club, Embassy Suites Anaheim South, Sheraton Garden Grove, Crowne Plaza Anaheim Resort and many others.
I am grateful to have developed and maintained a standard of practice and ethics for sitters who can be trusted to provide the best care for families traveling to the San Diego and Orange County areas from across the nation and the world.
There is no secret to finding and keeping quality sitters. Respect and treating people well earns respect and high quality treatment.
We treat our sitters like family so that we can refer them to your family.
Please give us your feedback, too, so that together, our children can receive the best care.
At the end of the day, there is nothing more important than family!
All my best, Yvonne
