Protea worked for us for almost two years, starting when our son was 3 months old and our daughter was 3 years old. We are moving out across the country, and are really going to miss her, and wish we could take her with us! In the two years she was with us, she became a part of the family. She is very sweet and playful, and both kids love her. Protea is very capable and can handle any situation. She started out mostly caring for our infant son, and taking our daughter to preschool. During the pandemic, she shifted to helping our daughter with online schooling while still finding activities for our son. She has a very positive attitude, and has helped our daughter cope with stresses and changes from starting online school. Any family would be lucky to have her as a nanny.
