I am a Grandma! I taught preschool and early elementary school for many years. I was also the executive director of a daycare facility for 2 years. As a stay-at-home mom for my now adult children, I know how important it is for parents to have a babysitter they can trust and feel comfortable leaving their children in their care. I remember choosing a "grandma" as my kids' main babysitter when they were young. She was a great help to me and I hope to pass on that same security. I currently live near my elementary age grandkids and watch them on many occasions. I love to play games, bake yummy treats, read stories and go for nature walks. I seldom turn on the television or other electronic apparatus, while I am a caregiver. I speak English and German. I look forward to getting to know you all better too!

Dianne is a phenomenal person and an incredibly caring, attentive, and detail oriented caretaker. We have two children - a 7 year old boy and a 9 month old baby girl, and Dianne has watched both of them many times in the last few months. Dianne is always able to cater to both the baby and our elementary schooler perfectly and engage them in age appropriate activities and care. I feel very at easy leaving them both with Dianne - our 7 year old always looks forward to time with her and tells us she’s the only sitter we’re allowed to have. Our baby is consistently happy, well taken care of and content when we leave and come back. We are so lucky to have found her. Highly recommended! Dianne is truly a gem.

Dianne has been amazing! She is a breeze to work with. Our little guy, 3 years old loves her! He gets excited that he gets to hang out with her and doesn’t even mind that we have to leave. She is prompt and a great communicator. She genuinely just wants to help families in search of care for their children. Dianne you’re awesome! Love, The Coffin Family! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dianne help me out with childcare needs a number of times and she has been wonderful. Dianne was on time, professional, and put my husband and I completely as ease while we were away. Dianne is very organized, responsible, and communicative. She takes the time to really learn about the family and the children, and thinks from our perspective. She truly cares. She was also great with my elementary school aged children, whom enjoyed spending time with her. I am also very grateful to Dianne for being able to provide care on a very short notice (less than 2 hours) due to a last-minute medical situation. She was communicative during this time to help put us at ease knowing the children are in good hands and thought ahead on their dinner plans, etc. Highly recommended!

Dianne is a wonderful person and a great caregiver. She is thoughtful, reliable, and trustworthy. Our son has thoroughly enjoyed spending time with her and we look forward to the next time we'll see Dianne. :)

Dianne has watched our 8 month old daughter Yara. She has consistently arrived at our house on time and is ready to engage with our daughter. She is kind, compassionate, punctual and dependable. Yara smiles when she sees her and I know she’s in good hands. If you hire Dianne you can feel confident that your child is her priority. You won’t have to worry about a babysitter who just sits and watches tv. Dianne puts in the work and we are grateful.
