I've heard about three:

Kids Nite Out (18006968105)

Fairy Godmothers (4072757326)

All About Kids (4078129300)

Though I can't say we have used any of them yet, i'm sure other folks on here will be able to tell you about them.

Good Luck!

We are going at the end of Sept and have booked 2 nights with KidsNite Out. I am really nervous. We have 6 mo old twins who are very attached to mommy. We are having them come for just the twins during MNSSHP and having them come for the twins and our 2-1/2 yo when we go to LaNouba. I will definitely post an update, but I've heard good things.

We will be using the Kids Night Out in Sept for DS(3) while my husband and I do the Expedition Everest Challenge. I did so on the recommendation of Jillybean and her great experiences they have had with their DD(2).

Below is an exerpt from an article I wrote a few years ago. I interviewed this woman and she seemed to have her act together, at least back then. Of course, you should do your own homework to be sure, since I don't have kids and never actually used her service. I just asked her questions over the phone. (The particular article was geared toward special needs, so that is mentioned) Hope your trip is magical!

In-room sitting. In-room sitting is preferred by some parents, as it does not require socializing with other children. A parent who is depending on these services would be wise to do any research and ask questions before leaving for the vacation. In response to information requests regarding in-room sitting, two Disney Resort hotels produced brochures for the Orlando based company called All About Kids, which is not officially affiliated with or endorsed by Disney.
Marian Christ, founder of the 16-year-old company, said her sitters come to the hotel with age-appropriate toys and games. With written permission, the child can be taken out of the room for meals, playgrounds, or a visit to the pool. The agency can send sitters to the parks as a mother's helper or alone with children.
Christ feels that some parents are afraid that the agency will refuse assistance for special needs, but an inquiry call, she insists, is a good idea. "If a sitter has specialized experience or training in an area, the right person will be sent," she says.
Of course, nothing is guaranteed as far as accommodations for special needs. "We're not a medical organization, but there are a lot of things we can do." said Christ. "We try to accommodate anything, but it is best to call ahead to be sure." All About Kids can be reached at 1-800-812-9300 or at http://www.all-about-kids.com. As with any service, be sure to ask plenty of questions if you have any doubts.

I have used Kids Night Out a few times for clients and everyone has loved them. Disney recommends them and they are certified and insured.
