"She was the Best of the Best! Absolutely everything you wish for in a Nanny . She is trustworthy, kind, loving, fun, smart, assertive, structured, organized, sensory knowledge and experienced- she loves Jesus! So many wonderful things about her- My girls, niece, and neighbor kids all loved her so much. She did crafts, learning games, music and shows. Sang songs- she was very patient, helped with one of my daughters who has many struggles on many different levels. She bonded with her almost instantly. Always thinking outside the box - Andrea truly is one of a kind, Amazing person. She made such a difference in my girls day to day life as well as mine and my husbands. - I never worried while she was with my girls. Never. Something that never went unnoticed- was after working long hrs, I always came home to a clean/ kept up home, she and my girls cleaned up after their FUN days of crafts, baking, and shenanigans. She was so appreciated. 💛"

The most important part about being a nanny...

May 2014

I was working with a kid with a child with a speech delay and impediment. It was a long summer of him getting frustrated and impatient. We worked a lot through play-based learning and learned some new visual-verbal cues with the help of his speech-language therapy. By the end of the summer, he was saying three names (mama, brother, da). On my final day, He ran to me and said, "Dreaaaa" (my nickname). Then, I discovered my calling and purpose in life.
