"During first visit, Daniel and my 1yo daughter instantly got along. He was able to quickly understand her temperament, energy level, and willingness to engage with a new face. Daniel was great in bringing my daughter for walks and the playground daily as well as engaging her in activities at home including reading multiple books. Daniel also took feedback from us as parents well."

"DJ started with us when Lily was 3 months old. We were first time parents and his calm nature and extensive knowledge about caring for babies put our minds at ease. Lily was immediately comfortable with him which is how we knew it was the right fit! He is always great about incorporating our ways of parenting into his own child care and always makes sure her needs are met. He goes above and beyond to find activities for them to do so that Lily can interact with other kids. They go to the local park, library, music class, the grocery store! Anything except sit at home! He reads to her, plays her music, sings her to sleep, and even introduced all of us to an educational tv show for those rainy desperate days! He has never once called out sick from work and has shown up rain or shine (literally once in a snow storm!!!) or even when slightly under the weather. We’re sad to part ways but ultimately want our daughter in day care. Any kid would be lucky to have DJ as a caretaker!"

" DJ was excellent with our daughter (3 years old at the time). He picked her up from preschool and entertained her for a few hours. Typically this included taking her to the library for story time, to the playground/park, or Skyzone. They were always on the move. On days they stayed home, he would do activities with her like gardening, art or reading books. DJ also cared for our 8 year old son by helping him off the school bus and monitoring his homework. He was extremely professional and nurturing with both children. DJ worked with us for most of 2019. His employment ended when I no longer needed childcare after a career change. I would highly recommend DJ to other clients. "

"DJ has a vocation. He is quite talented with little ones. He knows how to keep them entertained and has an approach most of us as first time parents are only figuring out. My daughter was in his care as a baby then turned early toddler. Going back to work, I was concerned about her acclimating. I was wrong! She loved DJ's and her fellow little friends, so it was an easy transition."
