My husband and I posted a job for our soon to be 18 month old daughter last month, and in doing so found Monica. We were both a little skeptical about leaving our daughter with a stranger as well as bringing someone into our home. Mia has never been left with anyone except family up until then. Monica quickly put both of our minds at ease through a phone conversation. She responded promptly to our emails as well as our phone call to her. My husband was going to be out of town and I had to work 3 late evenings in a row. This was no problem for her to do nor after speaking with her did I have any worries. She arrived 5 minutes early all 3 days. Monica was very good with my daughter and extremely professional. We will definitely be using her again. Highly recommended !
