Jena, did you arrange it through Disney, and was it included in your package?

There are a couple of companies that provide in-room child care at WDW. Disney used to use kindercare, and still does for it's onsite childcare center for CMs. They now use Kids Night Out for all of their in-room service since they were having problems with kindercare. One highly mentioned company is Fairy Godmothers.

Since your son is older, and it is in the middle of the day, I would call around to the services and ask them what they would do with him during the 4 hours. I would guess that at least one of them would take him to MK while you are on the tour, or at least swimming or something. I wouldn't want to sit in the room for 4 hours, no matter how entertaining the sitter is. I don't think my 10 year old would either.

Fairy Godmothers: (407) 277-3724
All About Kids: (407) 812-9300
Kids Night Out: (407) 827-5444

One suggestion, make sure you get a key to your room that has no charging privileges and can't be used as part of your package, only opens your door, so the sitter will be able to go in and out of your room, but won't be tempted by having full access to all your money. You can just request that at the front desk at check in or at any other time.
