Cherie is an excellent caregiver. She is very professional, responsible, dependable, and personable. She cared for my three children, ages 10-16 last summer. I would highly recommend her for childcare and would continue to use her childcare servies when I am in need.

Cherie is wonderful...an absolute dream come true to me and my family. She is always on time, conscientious, prossional, and excellent with my 3 children. I trust Cherie with my children in a car as her driving record is great, or in my home. She is 'fun' with the kids and very energetic. Cherie is the best sitter we have ever had!
