"Tessa takes care of my 9-month-old son once a week. She has been with our family since he was 4-months-old. She is nurturing, hardworking, and trustworthy. She has so much experience with babies; many of the books and songs she has recommended have made it into our daily rotation. Our son is safe, engaged, and happy in her care. Couldn't ask for a better nanny. (She also gives our dog a lot of love too which is always appreciated.)"

The most important part about being a nanny...

I was working with a 3 year old with delayed language acquisition. She was only able to say “mom” and “dad” and”waa” for water. One afternoon I was pushing her on the tire swing. I was teasing her and we were laughing. As she came swinging toward me she said, “Hi Tessa!” so clearly. She had never said my name before. She had certainly never put two words together. She did not even say her sister’s name. It felt like a miracle and she began gaining more words after that.
