Cindy is wonderful. She is always on-time and will let you know ahead of time when something changes. She is also a very patient and organized person. I don't have to worry about my kid when she is with her. My kid really adores her. I am very fortunate and happy that I found her. I didn't think anyone could handle my overly active kid who drives me nuts sometimes, but Cindy did a great job and is still helping me out every week. Thank goodness I found her.

Cindy was wonderful! We were visiting friends in San Diego and she allowed us the opportunity to have a full night out with everyone. Since we were visiting we had to change the location at the last minute and she was extremely flexible. During the evening she was very attentive to the girls and did very well with my three even though they were sick - not an easy task! I would highly recommend Cindy!
