"We are so happy to have found Jessica! She saved me in an emergency situation when I hurt my neck & was having trouble taking care of the kids. Since then she has done many date nights for us & we couldn’t feel more comfortable & confident leaving our kids in her care. She comes prepared with multiple activities, crafts/projects, dance parties & more! She keeps the kids on your desired schedule while making sure they are having fun. We are all very happy!"

"Jess is a talented, caring nanny who has been absolutely wonderful with my 3 and 5 year old kids. She has been our travel and date night nanny on several occasions now, and each time she has planned fun, engaging, and educational activities for our kids. She has also begun to teach them to swim! She is responsible, trustworthy, always punctual and always responsive. She strikes the perfect balance of fun and engaging but also firm and consistent about boundaries (which young kids need!) My kids love her and we will continue to hire her for future vacations!"

"Jessica has been watching our two boys (currently ages 10 and 12) for the past 10 years. She is energetic, organized, caring, dependable ......basically everything you would want in a babysitter. Our kids absolutely adore her! She has watched them evenings, full days, and even overnight! She is creative and actively engages them in activities and projects. From their toddler years to their pre-teen years, they have always looked forward to their time with her! There is always a list written out of meals, activities, etc. so we are in the loop of all of the important details of the day! We have had friends and family with kids visiting from out of town, and have asked her to watch up to 5 kids multiple times. Even our friend's kids rave about how awesome Jessica is. It is nice to be able to enjoy a night out (or weekend away) and know that my kids are well cared for and having fun! My family and I give Jessica two enthusiastic thumbs up! -Kamal W."

"Jess cared for our three children while we were attending a family wedding in New York. She was amazing with them and allowed me peace of mind while I had to be apart from them. She brought fun games, dealt with separation anxiety in my two year old, and did a wonderful job."
