Our story · Since 1993

Two generations of mothers.One unbreakable rule.

Never send anyone you wouldn't leave your own children with. It was Carol's rule in 1993, it's Crystal's rule today, and it's why Park City's families have trusted us for 31 years.

The founder

It started with a mother who understood

Carol Passey founded Guardian Angel in 1993 with a background in Family Studies, five children of her own, and a simple observation: traveling parents wanted a real vacation, but no one had earned their trust enough to make it possible.

So she built the company she would have wanted to call. Sitters found by personal referral, never job boards. References she checked herself. And a promise in the name: your children would be watched over like our own.

Today

Carried on by her daughter

Crystal Christian grew up inside Guardian Angel and leads it today — a mother of four holding her mother's standard: integrity, kindness, and sitters chosen as carefully as family.

Under Crystal, the concierge promise grew: the area's largest baby gear selection, grocery stocking, event childcare, and service that now reaches from Park City and Sundance to Salt Lake City and St. George.

"As parents, we understand the anxiety of a stranger caring for your little ones. So we never send one."
