Margie has been taking care of our little one for a little over a year and a half now and I can confidently say that hiring her was one of the best decisions my wife and I have ever made. Margie truly cares and provides exceptional care. Margie is reliable - which is huge for two working parents with busy jobs and schedules. She’s an excellent communicator, extremely punctual, takes feedback and applies immediately, and gives her full attention and love to our little one 100% of the time. She brings a positive energy every day and makes our little one so happy. She’s helped our child grow and learn at every milestone since 6 months and was excellent with introducing solids, transitioning naps, and moving from crawling to a child who can jump and run. One of the things we appreciate most about Margie is how much we trust her. Once she arrives each morning, we know our child is in great hands — and that our little one will remain on their schedule, be well fed, and have a day full of activities. Margie encourages reading and it’s now our little one’s absolute favorite activity. She’s never on her phone. She’s always patient. And gives 100% every single day. She’s a part of our family and we couldn’t have operated without her. 11/10. The BEST. Hire her!

My boys and I love Margie (that's our nickname for her). She's been our nanny and sitter since my youngest was 7 weeks old. She's kind, loving, and someone we trust! My boys are now 10 and 12 and look forward to her coming over!
