Candace has been babysitting for my two small children (2.5 and 4.5 years old) for 4 months. Each day she arrives, my kids are so excited- jumping up and down and hugs all around. When I arrive home at night, the house is neat and the kids are happy. She takes them out to the park, and to the library, does crafts and games, reads, etc. Since she is a mom too, I have felt so comfortable leaving my kids with her. One day she knew right away that my son seemed to be developing an ear infection and called me at work to let me know. Her long experience with kids is such an advantage to a worried mom at work! I would recommend Candace to anyone - trustworthy, patient, and fun!

We hired Candace as a Tutor/Babysitter for our 9 yr old Son w/ Asperger's and emotional issues. Candace worked out absolutely awesome! She went way out of her way to accomplish anything and everything that we asked- we could not have been more pleased with her performance, care and commitment to her role! My son entered school, so she was only involved for about 7 weeks, but in this time, she developed an amazing re pore with my son, and helped us accomplish some amazing milestones! She was as reliable and dependable, as one could ask for. I cannot say enough about Candace as a person, she definitely took this role personal, and was super dedicated to accomplishing our goals. We truly felt like we had been blessed with her assistance. I would highly recommend her to anyone with child related needs! John C.
