We go to Williamsburg once a year and use her every time. She had her hands full with our 2, 3, 4, and 7 year olds. She brings a bag of balloons which is a huge selling point for the kids to get them excited and something to look forward to. She's responsive, patient, and kind. Highly recommend.

Marlana is a pleasure to meet. She arrived on time with a warm greeting. I emailed her to ask if she was available for last minute care and she called me within 5 mins. of me sending her the email; she agreed to arrive within the next hour. Marlana babysat in my home, she was punctual, kind and attentive. My child really enjoyed her company. I'll definitely be using her services in the future.
