"Rachel has been with our family for almost a year now, and she is an excellent nanny to our nearly 2 year old daughter. She is dependable, trustworthy, and playful with our little one. It is abundantly clear how much she cares about and enjoys our daughter's company, which is very comforting to us as her parents. She treats our daughter with kindness, love and respect while acting as her confident leader. Rachel engages her in conversation and play, taking her outdoors whenever possible, and prepares and offers her nutritious meals. She is always communicative and honest, alerts us of any concerns or developments, and is open to discussing strategies around behavior and developmental transitions. She offers her own suggestions while respecting our wishes and boundaries. Our childcare scheduling needs have changed, but we hope she will be able to stay on with us part time and/or be in our little one's life moving forward!"

"Rachel nannied for our toddler consistently from September 2020 to December 2021. She was flexible with scheduling, open to implementing our ways of parenting, helpful in teaching our daughter, and timely. She helped with house cleaning and was always open to feedback. Our daughter was enrolled in daycare so we no longer needed Rachel on a regular basis but she continues to do intermittent date night sitting for us."

"Rachel started watching our 1 year old daughter in Sept 2020 and continues to do so. Rachel has been great with our daughter. She spends time taking her outside and reading to her frequently. She is has been very flexible with accommodating my abnormal schedule, and always willing to take on more shifts if needed. Rachel has been great about following the schedule I have for my daughter, as well as helping around the house with her laundry and light housekeeping."

"Rachel is very insightful to what a matter is about, and thus is great about giving circumstances a verbal place to be expressed, praised, recognized, corrected, and worked out. She asks questions if something is unclear and seeks to do her best especially in matters of honesty for personal reasons. What is more valuable than someone who holds honesty as a Creed to live by? If honesty and good communication matter to you, and is something you also live by, you will be happy to have Rachel in your home, with your family, as someone you trust with the very important and personal details of life . She is also easy to laugh and smile, being with her is uplifting. Hope your lucky family will be blessed with Rachel as a nanny!"
