Scarlen was punctual, reliable and had great energy. She has skill sets beyond normal babysitting. She was more of a family assistant, helping to drive the kids to activities, preparing meals, laundry and ought housekeeping.

Scarlen worked for us for an entire school year while she was going to college. She took care of our daughter and was the Chief Operating Officer of our household. Her top traits are she is highly responsible, a diligent worker, friendly and very bright. When not driving our daughter to different activities she would take care of our dog, prepare meals, do laundry and run errands for us. It was such a delight to have her be part of our family for a year and we highly recommend her.
