"Dawn is amazing! When she started in 2022, my daughter and I were going through a really difficult transition to a new home and town. Dawn helped us both get through a challenging time with her positivity, energy, hard work, and thoughtfulness. My daughter is almost 14 and will be going to high school next year, so it doesn’t make sense to have a nanny anymore, but we will miss her a ton.
My daughter has ADHD, and even though Dawn came into the job with a great deal of expertise in dealing with neurodiversity, she has continued to read and learn and adjust over the course of the four years she has been with us. She is a problem solver and a natural nurturer.
Dawn is also the rare person who sees something that needs to be done and just does it. She cares for my daughter, me, our many pets, and our home with kindness and abundant energy.
My hope is that she finds a position with a family that values her as much as we do."

"Where do I even start? Dawn is “magical“. She is completely born to be working with children and has a very special gift. She communicates with them on their level and gets down on her hands and knees to play with them. Her brain is always thinking of creative ideas outside the box to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. She is so fun to be around and always in a happy positive mood. She communicates very well and is very professional. She takes the initiative and does things before I can even think about it, like she’s reading my mind. But is also very thoughtful of boundaries and never to “overstep”. She has a lot of energy which means she can keep up with my kids and I never worry that she is getting tired or can’t handle it. Dawn really goes the extra mile, she is no average employee/Nanny. She has a real spark in her personality and a fire for life. She is kind, thoughtful, considerate, very hard-working, and just amazing with children."
