I have also been previously certified in infant, child, and adult CPR, but I have not renewed my certification yet.

Due to a recent family event in NY (we live out of state), we were in a position where we needed to find someone to watch our 4 month-old and 3 year-old. Cori was amazing! She was warm, kind, and confident with both kids.The baby was especially fussy that night, and she managed to soothe him AND get our 3 year-old to bed all within the same hour. She kept us updated by text throughout the night, which was especially appreciated. This was our first time leaving the baby with anyone other than a family member, and it was such a relief to find someone who is mature, caring, and skilled in managing more than one child. We look forward to using Cori's services again when we are in town visiting, and would not hesitate to recommend her to friends or family.

Cori had helped me with our 2 month old daughter last year and was excellent with her. All my interactions with her was very professional. She came to help me in spite of the fact that she had herself returned from a trip that very day. Due to circumstances I did not require baby sitting services for the last 6-8 months, but I will always reach out to her whenever I need help in future.

Cori has been babysitting for our 3 year old son as an "as needed" sitter and we could not have been more pleased. She was fantastic with him and extremely reliable.

Cori worked with us several times to help take care of our 3 month old twins. She was always on time, cheerful and helpful, and she was very sweet with the babies and also friendly and inclusive with our older daughter.

Cori has been helping me out with my 2 year old daughter and newborn boy. She is wonderful. My daughter loves to play with her and I can tell she genuinely loves my son and takes such good care of him. I have complete confidence in her and know that my kids are receiving the best of care when she's around.
