Kayla is one of the best nanny’s my family had this past summer. She is hands on and plays with my kids. Her willingness to help out in anyway filled my heart. She loved my kids as her own. It made this mama heart at ease knowing she was watching my kids. - Jennifer

I would have to say that if you hire this individual. You won't regret it! They are the most caring and trustworthy person that I have ever had the pleasure of hiring. They are always on time and they are set on making your life at ease. If I could hire them again I would. - Heather Anderson-Smith

My daughter loved being watched by Kayla and I loved that I could have peace of mind that my child was safe while I was working. She is so accommodating to any needs and preferences you may have and she truly wants what’s best for each child. The crafts she plans and the imaginative play she engages in are our favorite. - Meghan
