Alyssa is wonderful with my children and they warmed up to her instantly. She is very responsive and communicates promptly when there is any sort of scheduling complication. She also keeps me informed with what they are doing while I am away and checks in with me to answer any questions. She will be a valuable sitter for our family.

We had Alyssa as our regular nanny for about a year and then as a one-in-a-wile sitter for another year or so. She started when my daughter was about 6 months old and was even here after we had another baby about 20 months later. Alyssa is a great sitter. She's very reliable and has great communication; in the entire time she only called in sick maybe 2 times and she would text me the day before each visit to confirm- loved it! She is organized with scheduling her days, booking them weeks in advance which helped me plan and get organized too! She is in school in a busy program but otherwise very willing to help out. We were so lucky to find her. She has great attention to detail and was so sweet and gentle with my daughter who can be "spirited" at times. Alyssa quickly got to know the drill in our house and it was always such fun to have her here. Also, I completely trusted her to take my daughter on solo trips to the park and even had her pick my daughter up after a wedding ceremony to take her back to the hotel and do the nighttime routine so we could stay and enjoy the reception. Alyssa is a great find. She has a maturity that not every sitter or caregiver has. I really to trust her implicitly.
