"I highly recommend Portia as a babysitter. She has watched my kiddos on multiple occasions, and I can confidently say she is one of the most caring, patient, and trustworthy people I know. From day one, she made my kids feel safe and comfortable. They adore her and always look forward to her visits. Portia has a natural warmth that children are drawn to, and she engages with them in such a genuine, attentive way, playing games, reading stories, or just listening to them. She’s calm, kind, and handles any situation with patience and care. I always feel completely at ease leaving my kids with her, knowing they’re happy and well cared for. She’s also incredibly reliable, always on time, and follows directions perfectly. I truly can’t recommend Portia enough, her heart, instincts, and love for children make her an exceptional babysitter. If you’d like more information, I’d be happy to share our experience."
