Judy is extraordinary with kids. She goes over and beyond her duties and treats kids with love and patience. - Susan
Reyna is a great childcare provider because she is highly experienced, professional, and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her for young newborns. Her daughter also provided care for our child and was excellent, as she was also trained by Reyna. - Eduardo
Natalie is very reliable, caring and patient with little ones. Although, Natalie was with us for a short period of time, she picked up bedtime routine, snack and play time schedule right away. As a parent, keeping my little one on schedule with a caring sitter was important. I would recommend Natalie in a heartbeat. - Nohemi
