Kiara was such a great nanny for our 2 children. She is attentive, engaging, kind, and structured.

She is college educated, has years of experience and is a rare gem! - Molly

Kiara W.

Kiara was great with our daughter. She planned activities and crafts and was very engaged. She was extremely reliable and dependable. Kiara literally saved our sanity during the pandemic by assuming the full time care of our daughter during our daycare shutdown. She was also juggling classes and other responsibilities and managed it all well. We were very impressed with her maturity. - Brett
