I am very happy to have found Nana, she is kind hearted and truly cares. My children love her. She is fair with them; they have a lot of respect for her. She makes their care her priority and adapts well with last minute changes and emergencies. I definitely recommend her services.

Tried to setup a phone interview and never heard back.

Nana worked for our family for a bit longer than a year, from the time that our daughter was six weeks old until she was a little over a year. We would have been happy to keep her on far longer than that had she not moved out of the area to continue her education. It is tough to say everything good that I have to say about her in a short review, but here are the basics: She was extremely warm and affectionate with our daughter, treating her like a member of her own family, and highly knowledgeable about all aspects of taking care of babies and toddlers. She is sensitive to patterns and was good at reading what our little girl wanted and why. Bonus: she has a beautiful singing voice, and I always loved to hear her sing to our baby girl!

This review is overdue.

Nana is one of a kind. I cannot say enough about her. She is more than just a sitter.

She is sweet, kind, very thoughtful and always engaging with my daughter. My daughter loved her when she watched her and i hope to be able to get her around more often.

She does not indulge in TV watching but if the weather is good, you'd probably find her outside with your kid or reading a book or playing puzzles - whatever is suited to their age.

Hire her - best decision you will make on sittercity. :-)

The kids liked her a lot! We would certainly ask her to sit for us again.

Moving to a new city and having to find a great babysitter can be stressful! I am so grateful to have found Nana. I adore her as a person and she has been a wonderful babysitter for my two children. I really appreciate how professional she is and how much she genuinely cares about my babies. I highly recommend her.

I highly recommend Nana. She cared for my two elementary age boys for five weeks after school and was a perfect fit for their energy, snack, and homework needs. She is calm and nurturing, but also knows how to ensure chores and school work are completed. She can assisted with 5th grade advanced math and was savvy enough to know when my son needed to show his work more clearly or add more sentences to his writing assignments. She played soccer in the backyard with them (and is a former soccer player), and when there, always focused on them - no texting, TV, or sitting around, but truly engaged in their needs. She listens to them and makes them feel respected and acknowledged, while still clearly the authority figure. Excellent sitter! You won't be disappointed.

Nana babysat my 2-year-old daughter for the first time this September (2014). She was wonderful! My daughter took to her right away and seemed to have lots of fun playing with Nana while I was gone. She arrived on time and was very professional throughout the whole experience.

Nana took care of my three-month daughter on two occasions in August 2014 while I did some chores around the house. My impression was that she is someone who is easy to get along with and extremely helpful. Her experience with children of various ages is evident. For example, my daughter was a bit fussy and she noticed that walking with her outside seems to calm her down. We will hopefully be using her again when we're in need of a babysitter.

Nana watched my three daughters after school and was truly a gem! I returned to a clean, serene home with three girls happily playing in the playroom with Nana. She is mature beyond her years and remarkably capable. She does not disappoint!

Nana was absolutely amazing. She watched my two girls, ages 5 and 8, multiple times during the summer while I was at work. She did an incredible job caring for them and taking care of the house. She really goes above and beyond and always does what's best for the children. She is a natural and I highly recommend her!

Nana watched my 3-month-old and my 2-year-old while my full-time nanny took the day off, and she was wonderful! She put me at ease right from the start and asked all the right questions to ensure my kids were well taken care of. At the end of the day, I came home to happy children and a tidy house. I will definitely call her for child care again!
