"Vivian has loved our boys so well and she feels like a part of the family. We have a 2.5 year old and a 1 year old. Both get so excited to see her and spend time with her. She loves and cares for our boys as much as our family does. She goes above and beyond to learn about their current development and needs. I fully trust her with my kids and have never had any doubts. She is easy to talk to and coordinate with. She is exceptionally responsible and coachable. Vivian helps with household task as well without even being asked. She genuinely wants to make our life easier. We have a 4 year old border collie that she is great with. She has dog sat for us in addition to nannying. Even though we don’t need her regularly right now we love getting to still have her watch our boys for community group and date nights. You can’t help but love Vivian! She would be an amazing addition to your kids life."
