Laicha is very prompt high energy and follows laid out plans to the detail. She was great our 4 year old on short notice and he told me they had so much fun. My son is very shy around new people and immediately took to her. I would highly recommend her for any of your care taking needs for your children!

I received excellent service from Laicha. My kids said they enjoyed spending time with her. My kids were magnetic to her as soon as she walked through the door and Laicha was wonderful with the kids. She arrived on time, gave the children dinner and put them in bed as I requested.
