Looking for advice on in room child care please!

We just became AP's and booked another trip to WDW for the end of November, yay! Our anniversary falls in the dates of when we'll be there and I'd like to go out with DH for a nice dinner and have some adult time. But I'm nervous about leaving DS2 with someone we've never met. I did some research today and it looks like Kids Nite Out has some really good reviews, but it would make me feel better to hear firsthand from someone that's used them. Or if you know of another reputable company I'm open to hearing about them as well.

Tia!

Hi! I have two kids, DD4 and DS1.5, we've used kids nite out twice now and have them booked for a night out next month. Both times they've showed up a few minutes early. They bring some things for the kids to do: dolls, coloring, etc. I made sure we had food for the kids' dinner. My DD told me she had a great time and really liked the person who watched her. I was very nervous the first time we used them as well but it all turned out great. I hope that helps.

We used them last September for our 5 year old twins. She was on time and went over policies with us and expectations with the kids. She gave us an idea of the things she would be doing with them and we asked her to have them in bed by 8:30pm. My DH was still nervous so he set up a cam (Nest cam) that streams to your cell phone, so he could keep an eye on things. We checked in a couple times. Once they were doing "dance party" and the next they were in bed with most of the lights out. So I have no problem recommending them. We had her with our children 5pm-9pm. They require food being provided so we picked up meals for the kids and her from the resort QS. They also do not do swimming or baths. But they will do dancing singing, disney related things, tv or movie and take care of bedtime routines.

Thank you both! Your responses do ease my fears a bit I like the cam idea! I think if I could see for myself that he's okay I'd be able to enjoy myself more.
