Kids Nite Out- KNO

[Rainbows25]

Hey!
Just wondering personal experiences with KNO- has anyone used the babysitters that come to your hotel room? If so, please share your experience! Thank you so much.

We used kids nite out on our last trip in January of this year. Our sitter came armed with activities and did a great job. We received some pictures throughout the night of the kids having fun. It’s a little pricey but I would do it again since it gave us an opportunity to have an evening out at trader Sam’s.

Thank you so much! I’m a little uneasy about it. But I’ve read positive reviews. Thank you for telling me your experience. It definitely helps.

Would you do it again??? lol

I honestly would and if we can’t convince grandma to come this next trip then we will definitely be doing it. It was the first time I’ve ever left my kids with a “stranger” so when the time came I was a little nervous but it went great. Our sitter seemed kind of reserved but the kids loved her and they had a lot of fun.

We have done it... 4 times now. First two (pre covid) were amazing. The sitter had lots of activities and crafts; she even made my son a balloon Millennium Falcon. Third was not great; she just let them watch TV the whole time, but I felt they were safe. The fourth was better: she took them for a nice walk around the Polynesian and they played on the beach, then played with their toys a bunch back at the room.

All in all, they've been pretty great! It's amazing to be able to have a nice date night at WDW.

Thank you so much for your reply. Hearing the positive experience makes me much more comfortable. It’s nice to hear you have used them multiple times.

So this is a possibly dumb question...But-

For those that have booked KNO--? Are they OK with getting kids set for bed, if we'd be returning later in the evening? PJ's and brushing teeth and whatnot?

My oldest is actually still in diapers at night only (he's fine during the day!) at 5.5 yrs old. Was nervous about that a bit, because he's never had anyone get him set for bed before besides myself, DH, or grandparents. Is that super weird to ask that of a KNO sitter...?

Unfortunately we've always gotten back before bedtime, so I'm not sure how they'd handle it. It's probably worth giving them a call and talking to them about it. I know they can theoretically watch actual babies, so it shouldn't be too much of a stretch...
