We first hired Amy for a few days when our son was about 4 months and I had to go out of town. We then decided to use Amy part-time up until our boy started at a day care at 6 months and for an occasional date night. At the interview Amy asked questions about our baby and was genuinely interested to get to know him. She’s very attentive and she always meets our baby’s energy. When they spend time together she always follows his cues whether it’s play, sleep or hunger. She always stays active with him during her visits: they read books, play music and go outside. It is obvious that his enrichment and development is important to her. We're very happy with Amy and would highly recommend her services!

Amy was fabulous! On short notice, we needed childcare for our special needs son while visiting from out of town for a military promotion ceremony. Our son has severe autism and is non-verbal. Amy responded immediately to our request, and within a few minutes of our interview by phone, I felt she was a great match. Once we met in person, she instantly bonded with our son. Many of our family members and friends who attended the event commented on how wonderful she was with him and were surprised when they found out that we had just met her in person that day. Amy is very reliable, responsible and caring. Her assistance during the ceremony was indispensable. We highly recommend her!
