“Eliana was wonderful with our 5 kids. She reviewed so much information with us — allergies, medical conditions, etc. — on our initial contact. I love how thorough she was in making sure all bases were covered and the kids would be safe in her care. She even stopped to run an important errand for me on the way before she arrived. The kids raved about how kind and fun she was throughout the day. I’d highly recommend Eliana to anyone needing reliable childcare in OBX.”

“Our family had an amazing experience with Eliana! She helped care for our two young boys during our beach vacation, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. She was warm, thoughtful, and incredibly considerate from the moment she arrived. My 1.5-year-old, who doesn’t always warm up to new people right away, connected with her almost immediately. Both of my kids had so much fun playing with her and looked forward to seeing her each day. Knowing they were happy, engaged, and so well cared for allowed me and my husband to actually relax and enjoy our vacation. She was reliable, attentive, and a joy to have around. We are so grateful for her help and will absolutely hire her again for our next vacation.”

“Eliana was an incredible help for us while we were at the beach for our 1 week vacation! She was super flexible with us, very communicative ahead of the vacation and also during. Always on time and brought such a positive energy! She helped us every day taking the kids off our hands so my husband and I could enjoy some couple time! She was so attentive, gentle and caring with my 1 year old and my 3 year old even through their tantrums or tough days. I would 100% recommend Eliana for your stay in OBX!!! :) I would love to rehire Eliana for our next stay!”

“We were so thankful to have Eliana babysit our three kids while we were in the OBX! From our very first meeting, both we and our kids felt completely comfortable with her. Our kids are usually very shy and slow to warm up, but they barely even looked up when we walked out the door! Eliana was extremely communicative, came prepared with plenty of fun ideas to keep the kids entertained, and each night the kids reported back that they had an amazing time with her. Our youngest daughter is hoping Eliana will move closer to us so she can babysit more often. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and engaging babysitter!”

“Eliana was truly one of the best decisions we made for our week in OBX! We had a huge group — 18 adults and 14 kids under 5 — and having her come in each day was absolutely life changing. After the breakfast chaos every morning, she would step right in and completely reset the house so we could actually enjoy our vacation instead of constantly cleaning. She helped with everything: tidying common areas, dishes, meal prep, laundry, taking out trash, organizing, running errands, and all the random miscellaneous tasks that come with managing a house full of people and little kids. She was incredibly proactive and always seemed to notice what needed to be done before anyone even asked. Beyond being such a hard worker, Eliana was so sweet, kind, respectful, trustworthy, and dependable. She blended seamlessly into our busy household and brought such a calm, positive presence every day. She was wonderful with the kids, flexible with whatever we needed, and made such a huge impact on our trip. Honestly, every large family vacation should have an Eliana! We cannot recommend her enough and would hire her again in a heartbeat. Anyone would be lucky to have her help!”

“We were so grateful to have such a wonderful babysitter while we were on vacation! Eliana took amazing care of our 2-year-old son and 7-year-old daughter, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She was kind, patient, attentive, and made sure both kids felt comfortable and happy. Our children absolutely loved spending time with her, and it gave us such peace of mind to enjoy our vacation knowing they were safe and having fun. We truly appreciated her reliability, warmth, and the genuine care she showed our family. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring babysitter!”

“Eliana was amazing! We were 2 families in town for vacation and she took amazing care of our two toddlers so we could have a parents night out. We would recommend her over and over and the communication leading up to everything was top notch.”

“My daughter Eliana has many different skills that make her an exceptional babysitter. I highly recommend my daughter as a babysitter. As the third of seven children, she has played a major role in helping care for her younger siblings from a very young age. She is now 22 years old and has years of real, hands-on experience with children of all ages. She is patient, responsible, and naturally nurturing. Whether it was feeding, helping with homework, keeping little ones entertained, or making sure they were safe and cared for, she always handled her responsibilities with maturity and love. She has a genuine passion for working with children, which is why she is now pursuing babysitting professionally. Any family would be lucky to have her. She treats every child with kindness and care, and I fully trust her abilities and judgment when it comes to children’s wellbeing.”
