Amber was a summer sitter for my then 6 year old boy and 3 year old daughter. She was extremely reliable (always on time and never out unexpectedly) and always had something fun and creative for the kids to do. She handled issues well and was a pleasure to have around all summer. I would highly recommend Amber!
