I cannot recommend Elspeth highly enough. She is calm, steady, dependable, completely trustworthy – and she brings so much joy and laughter to our little one. She is very knowledgeable and experienced, and I think of her as our kiddo’s guide, teacher, and best bud all wrapped into one. She helped him learn to walk and go safely down stairs. She encouraged his curiosity and humor. She was soothing and supportive when toddler tantrums popped up. It meant so much to know that our little one was in the safest of hands and that his day would be full of adventure and care. I’m so grateful for Elspeth’s presence in his childhood and in our lives.
