Sandy helped us out with our newborn for 3 months. She is a responsible, knowledgeable, and kind newborn care specialist. Our newborn slept through the night at 3 months. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone trustworthy to assist with your child.

Sandy is fantastic!! She and her sister watched our sons and their cousins for a big family party. They were so great with the boys and made it so easy for us to enjoy the party knowing they were having fun and in great hands. Sandy was so proactive - she offered to arrive early to prepare the kids’ dinner, which was a huge help to me. She immediately connected with the boys (who range in ages from 2 to 7 years old) - they all got along so well. She was super receptive to our requests to have the boys join for certain parts of the party - photos with their grandparents, cake cutting, etc. She even took some adorable photos for us which was a huge bonus! This was all on top of doing all the ‘standard’ things so well - dinner, play time, bed time routine. I would absolutely work with Sandy and her sister again - and highly recommend them! Thank you, Sandy!

Sandy and her mother looked after my friends’ and my 3 babies (6 month old boy, 4 month old girl and 4 month old girl) one evening while we were visiting Newport on vacation. We were all a little hesitant to leave our babies since they are so young, but Sandy and her mother made us feel immediately at ease and confident in their care. They were so outstanding, we hired them again for the whole next day. They were prompt, kind and communicative. We loved that even though our kids were little, Sandy and her mother engaged them in tummy time, group play, and with play with toys, while sticking to 3 completely different feeding and napping schedules. Sandy sent us adorable pictures of the kiddos and updates about their naps and how much each ate. Personally, Sandy and her mother were the best caregivers I’ve ever hired! I wish I could take them home with me. I look forward to visiting Newport again and having Sandy babysit.

Sandy is professional and reliable with very good manner. If you are looking for a care or a help, Sandy is the one who you can trust and rely on. She knows how to interact with kids at their perspective. And she tries to meet parent's expectation and needs with special requests. I frequently ask her help and it has been wonderful so far. And it was my first time hiring a babysitter as well.

We want to work with Sandy forever. This was our first baby and first time looking for a non-family babysitter, and after many interviews, landed on Sandy. She was truly the warmest, accommodating, and responsible sitter we could have ever asked for. Our baby is starting to have stranger danger, but Sandy took her time, was patient, and was clearly an expert. We felt so confident leaving our baby in the care of Sandy, and he was the happiest baby when we got back. We can't recommend Sandy enough! Thank you so much, Sandy!

We could not rate Sandy highly enough. She’s a 10/5 stars! Leaving our baby in a new city with a new person (especially at the height of stranger danger) was daunting, and yet she was instantly at ease with Sandy and all the photos of her smiling the biggest smiles we’d ever seen throughout the day really reinforced what a great decision we made in hiring her. Sandy thank you for giving her the best time. Others, leap at the chance to hire Sandy for your own kiddos. She’s the absolute best.

Sandy is absolutely wonderful! As soon as we met her we felt at ease with her and trusted her with our baby. She is an infant whisperer! As new parents we are still learning the ropes and Sandy has given us so many helpful tips for our fussy baby. She has our highest recommendation.

The best babysitter which one I had. Sandy is a real professional in her field. She easily found a match for my daughter, she perfectly understands the child, her needs are very responsible. And Sandy understands child psychology very well. I am always calm and completely trust Sandy with my little princess, as she is after spending day with Sandy, my daughter is in a very good mood

Sandy was a terrific sitter for my 3-year-old twins, coming in on short notice and engaging them almost immediately. She is energetic and responsive, and clearly has both experience and confidence with children. I'm looking forward to having her work for us again.

Sandy was wonderful with my son. I felt very at ease the moment we talked on the phone. She asked questions during the "tour" and gave me a detailed update when I returned. I look forward to having her sit for me again soon.
