"Amaka is simply wonderful! Not only as a nanny, but as a person in general. She gave her undivided attention to my son while he was under her care. She played with him, watched movies, did schoolwork and even took him for ice-cream! Amaka is truly gifted to work with children. You will not be disappointed!!"
