"We have had the immense pleasure of having Arlene as our nanny for over four years, and we can confidently say that she has been an invaluable part of our family. From the very beginning, Arlene showed a remarkable ability to connect with our children, Winston and Oscar, nurturing them with love, patience, and understanding.
We have always been able to count on her to be there when we needed her, providing us with peace of mind and the reassurance that our children were in safe hands. Her professionalism and commitment to her responsibilities are truly commendable.
Arlene has become more than just a nanny to us; she is a cherished member of our family. Her warmth, kindness, and genuine affection for our children have made a lasting impact on our lives. We are incredibly grateful for everything Arlene has done for us and wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking a nurturing and dedicated caregiver."

"Arlene has been a caring, fun-loving, intelligent presence in our home for almost 5 years. She taught our kids their letters, numbers, shapes, colors and basic Spanish; she also potty trained our eldest and sleep trained our youngest. But even more importantly, from my perspective, is that she had fun with and loved them, helping them become the fun and loving kids they are. Both kids are starting school this fall, and we’ll miss Arlene so much."
