Reviews
Pat started working for me 18 years ago to care for my infant son and his brothers, ages 3 and 6. Pat has been an energetic, reliable, and caring part of our family life since that time. I always have complete confidence in her ability to care for my children, and my trust in her made it possible for me to work in a demanding job without worrying about my children's well-being. Pat was always on time and fulfilled her child-caring responsibilities, cheerfully and enthusiastically. She is also a creative and talented individual who has made my home a better place through her gardening, baking, and overall domestic expertise. As my boys grew and needed less supervision, Pat remained invaluable to me in other support she gave me in running my household. I HIGHLY recommend Pat. She is a kind and generous person and has been wonderful to my family over the past 18 years!
Sincerely, Anne M.
