We (me, wife, 5.5 year old and 2 year old went down last year. We werestaying off site and needed a babysitter to go to Pleasure Island. I went on the web and got a listing from the Orlando Chamber of Commerce that had a few baby sitting services. They came to our hotel, gave us a Nextel direct connect phone, and brought a few activities for the boys. We went out and had a great night. I can't remember the name of the place that I used, but the owner was great. She made suggestions where to eat and stuff like that.

The price was around $12-15 and hour. If I can think of the name, I'll post it again.

Hope this helps. :)

Fairy Godmothers will go on or off-site for childcare. For 1 child they are $12 per hour (4 hour min) plus $12 travel fee. I suspect it's more for 3 children.

Try Fairy Godmothers. You can call Orlando Information and get the number I apologize for not having it here at work with me!

I used them until my kids were old enough for the neverland club and they were wonderful!! Usually runs about 10 per hour.

Don't stop looking. The one I used did not charge a "travel fee". I'm still looking for the name.

I found 3 places that do child care:

Fairy Godmother's 407-277-3724 $12/hr + $12 travel fee, 4 hours min

Kindercare 407-827-5444

All About Kids 1-800-728-6506 or 407-812-9300 $11/hr, $7 travel fee, only 3 hrs notice needed.

I called Fairy Godmother's because I heard so many good things about them on this board. I have a sitter on Sun night for my 2 kids.
