We adore Edita. She has been our sitter/nanny for almost a year now, and she is wonderful. Mature, responsible, and reliable, her judgment is impeccable. I never worry about the children when they are in her care. My children love her, trust her, and feel safe with her. I could not imagine a better caretaker for young children. Edita is a gem.
