Leslie was amazing. My husband had surgery and I had been extremely busy helping him recover and taking care of our 2 little ones. I needed a break for a few hours and I contacted Leslie very last minute and she was able to come over and help me out. It was the first time my kids met her, and my son took to her very quickly! He asked when she was coming back as soon as she left! I would highly recommend her.

Leslie is amazing! She is everything all of these reviews say and more! 100% trust Leslie and am grateful to have her as a part of our family!

Leslie is an awesome nanny! She is professional, thorough and very helpful. Her communication is stellar and I trust to care for my infant anytime!

We love Leslie! She's very kind, sweet, warm and caring. She goes above and beyond to stick to our 4 month old's schedule and always ensures she's doing things the way we prefer. You can tell it's not easy for her to sit still/have free time on her hands as she is always asking what she can help with while our son naps. She also always engages with him during his awake windows - singing to him, reading with him, practicing tummy time and talking to him all throughout. We're so happy to have found Leslie!

Leslie is really wonderful with our infant daughter. She is super warm and engaging and both myself and my husband felt comfortable leaving our baby in her care. Even with my daughters fussing, Leslie was calm and easy going. We are fortunate to have found her and look forward to booking her again soon.

On time, professional, and intuitive! Leslie was able to put our child to sleep earlier than we usually can. We highly recommend her for 2 year olds!

Leslie is a joy. She has such great energy and my 8 month old son loves her. He originally met her back in September so of course he doesn’t remember her but you would think that they were old friends the way he took to her. I wish I could find someone like Leslie on a more regular basis because she has set the bar so high.

Can’t say enough about how wonderful Leslie has been with my 9 month old. I work from home, but it’s been invaluable to know that he’s learning and playing with someone we can trust while I’m in the office. Leslie fell into our household routine easily, making sure I’m able to breastfeed during my breaks. She’s very cognizant of your household rules and always makes sure she’s referring back to how we do things. Highly recommend! I only wish our schedules aligned more perfectly so we can have her all to ourselves!

WoW….. I truly want to Thank God for You…You showed up, and now my son and I are both in Love…Professional, reliable, honest, loving, loyal, caring, and understanding just to name a few.. This was my first time using anyone outside of my family to care for my baby and I am saying this from the heart I should’ve done this sooner

Leslie did an great job babysitting my girls. She was so caring with my girls and made me feel very comfortable with her watching them. She even played board games with my 9 year old and she loved it. Very thankful I found her.

Leslie was amazing. It was our first babysitter experience in the US and she made us feel comfortable right away.

Leslie is a true gem! She instantly connected with our little boy and is kind, sweet, gentle, and patient. This was our first experience with a sitter for our young son and we had a phenomenal experience that far exceeded our expectations. Leslie is trustworthy, will put your mind at ease as a parent, and you will know without a doubt your children are in great hands.

Leslie helped out our family on a part-time basis. Above and beyond the amazing experience she has as both an educator and caregiver, we found her to be warm, patient, kind, and very flexible! She was always willing to help out with whatever needed to be taken care of and did so with grace. She was cheerful from the moment she stepped through our door to the moment she left. Would highly recommend to any family in need of a wonderful nanny/caregiver!

Jeff S.

Leslie must be one of the most caring, kind, warm sitters on this site. She is absolutely wonderful with our 3.5 yo, a fantastic communicator, highly responsive, punctual and reliable. She genuinely cares, is so easy to chat with and must have some magic potions because our daughter never wants Leslie to leave!

Laneesha W.

9/2/2022

Leslie is awesome. I hoped she would be able to help my family out with my 3 month old son. I knew when we first spoke that I liked her. She then met with us and we spoke in person. She is very personable and knowledgeable about childcare. She took care of our son this morning for a few hours. I felt very secure with her in our home and I hope to be able to have her sit for us again soon.

One of the first things I noticed about Leslie were her great reviews on this website. Now that I know her I can honestly say they don't even do her justice. She is kind, caring, responsible and all the things a parent wants in a nanny. My children immediately took to her, and within just a short time she'd already learned our routines and was doing extra things around the house just to be helpful - things I hadn't even asked her to do. I can't say enough great things about Leslie. She's a true gem.

Leslie did a great job babysitting my 5 year old girl. She even brought a fun activity for them to do together. She was on time and very responsible. She even helped her clean up at the end of the day.

Leslie is a very warm and nurturing responsible sitter. My son is not easily open to new people and he is comfortable with Mrs. Leslie. She engaged with him to make it easier for him to feel comfortable and kept me up to date as to how things were in the house via text on our date night. Definitely will continue working with her as I feel at ease and she is trustworthy; but get in line as I tend to have her booked

We love Leslie! She is positive, kind and takes her role very seriously. I am not nervous at all to leave my 4 month old in her care and that’s such a relief for me. Since we’ve worked with her, I have nothing but wonderful things to say!!!

Jennifer M.

Leslie is just as great if not better than all the reviews say! She was so wonderful with our son and cleaned up so the place looked even better than when we left. We can’t wait to use her services again.

Leslie is a delight to work with. She is dependable, trust worthy and great with children. She took care of our 7 week old baby boy with so much love and compassion. She has my highest recommendation.

Andrea E.

We were so lucky to find Leslie to be the nanny to our 6 month old daughter during the work week. She is always responsive, respectful and punctual. Leslie has been a great addition to our family and is very open to feedback and the needs of our child. We look forward to having Leslie around everyday and love to see her interact with our baby girl.

Amanda L.

Leslie is patient and attentive to my two toddlers. My kiddos really gravitated towards her when they first met her (even though my boys are “slow to warm up” to new people). Thank you, Leslie!

Darnetta T.

4/23/2021

I have had the pleasure of having Leslie help out with my 8 month old and 3.5 year old the past week. She is has been great and is very nurturing to my daughter. She is super sweet, cares about the safety of our family during COVID and does a great job identifying the needs of my daughter while I am working from home.

Matt P.

It was a pleasure having Leslie care for our two daughters. She did a great job of communicating before, during and after the afternoon of sitting. She was very friendly and our daughters loved spending time with her. Highly recommended!

Glenn S.

We are so grateful to have had Leslie keep our littles while on vacation in Atlanta! We felt so good about her, that we even asked her to keep them an extra night;) The kids made art with the supplies she brought and loved how welcoming she was to them. Wouldn't hesitate to hire again!

Erik B.

3/2/2019

Our growing family has enjoyed working with Leslie. She is very kind, considerate, and honest. Our temperamental 2+ year-old can be a challenge and she handles him well. Leslie communicates effectively when our or her life necessitates such. We've had a more sporadic need than patterned need and that has not discouraged her in trying to help us when we need her. It seems a bit complex to find mature and experienced persons at times on sites such as this but Leslie is both. She treats our family like family!

Keisha B.

11/29/2018

Leslie has been great with helping us with our 7 month old while we are away for the day. She is very engaged with Shauna and her continuous development. She keeps us informed and shares those precious moments so we do not miss out while we are at work! Leslie is so friendly and we continue to enjoy working with her!

Katherine M.

Leslie has been a wonderful addition to our family! She is a dependable caregiver that goes above and beyond for our little one. She has a great personality and is wonderful with children. Not only is she great with kids, but she is also very flexible and always tries to accommodate our busy schedule to meet our childcare needs.

Jacques H.

Leslie is an awesome sitter! She was punctual and dependable. She is a great listener and very attentive to our 4 month old. We would definitely use her again!

Hannah G.

Leslie knows what she is doing with kids. She has great rapport with our children and can redirect them when they get out of bounds. She is incredibly flexible and willing to do whatever a family needs to make their lives easier. She is a definite gem .... We wish our schedules aligned better!

Jill P.

2/22/2015

Leslie arrived on time for our evening out last night. She is very hands on and got to work helping out right away. My 5 1/2 year old son really enjoyed playing with her and having her give him a bath and put him to bed. Leslie was also wonderful with our 2 month old daughter. She kept in touch and let us know everything was going well at home, which allowed us to enjoy our evening out with no worries. I would highly recommend Leslie and look forward to having her watch our children again.

Stacy S.

2/12/2015

Leslie is such a wonderful professional Nanny with an amazing warm heart that wins over semi-shy 11 year old boys and over-excited dogs too. My son really loves having her with him in the morning, and I have no worries that everything gets done on time. And I think she won over my scaredy-dog faster than any visitor to our house - and that's a good indication of character! ;) I would highly recommend Leslie to anyone needing a Nanny with a great combination of sweet and professional!

Shane S.

1/25/2015

Leslie is professional and intuitive. She arrives early and is very communicative, which is perfect for us as first time parents. We hope to have Leslie's care long term!

Amy B.

1/23/2015

Leslie is a wonderful babysitter! She arrived early for the day and immediately asked what she could do for me. My 2 1/2 year old twins loved playing with her! She made them lunch, put them down for a nap, and then cleaned up their toys, folded their clothes, and cleaned the kitchen area when they were napping. I will definitely use her again in the future! Highly recommended!

Kavita B.

11/24/2014

Leslie is a great, patient and loving person. She has taken care of my children for almost one year and we have enjoyed the experience. We will miss seeing her on a regular basis. Amazing person, trustworthy, kind and generous. Thoughtful, enthusiastic about kids and teaching, patient with even the "terrible Threes" Love her like part of the family. I definitely recommend her to any family looking for a dedicated person to trust their kids to.

Our nanny was ill and Leslie filled in for us one afternoon at the last minute. She made sure to confirm earlier in the day. My son had a great time with her and wanted to know when she would return. Leslie has a great attitude and is a pleasure to work with.

Kamisha H.

4/16/2014

Leslie babysat for my very active 2 year old. She did a wonderful job and went above and beyond my expectations. She ensured that I returned home to an clean home and a 2 years old that was worn out. She played with him all night and he went right to sleep when I got home. I will definitely be using her in the future.

Leslie has been a real pleasure to work with! My kids, aged 3 and 7, love it when she comes over! Leslie is loving, responsible, reliable, and very experienced. We have moved out of the area, and will miss her greatly.

Melissa A.

10/18/2013

My children keep asking when Leslie is coming back. They want me to go to work, so she can come and play. If that does not tell you how awesome Leslie is, than I don't know what will. She is prompt, patient and a great multi tasker. She can handle my 3 kids with ease. We feel like we found a keeper with Leslie :-)

Janelle S.

10/4/2013

Leslie is wonderful! She is sweet, reliable, patient with my children, great with my kids, and very hands on. My daughter was blowing her kisses after one time of watching them. We will definitely use Leslie as much as she will allow us too =)

Jason A.

9/15/2013

My son loved Leslie! It was the first time we had tried an new sitter for our 4 year old and we were very comfortable leaving him with Leslie for the evening. She is very professional, answered all of our questions and even answered some we forgot to ask! My son is already asking when she'll be coming back! We will definitely be calling her again and we highly recommend her!

Erin L.

Leslie is a wonderful sitter. She has taken care of our 2 and 10 year old girls, and they both love her. Leslie is very responsible, she has great common sense, and is a lot of fun with the kids. She clearly enjoys being with children and mine love being with her!

Laura L.

2/11/2013

Leslie is a great communicator and very honest. She had been exposed to a sick child and was very upfront about it out of concern for our family's safety. I would not hesitate to recommend her. :)

Leslie is a wonderful sitter! After recently parting ways our beloved, longterm sitter/nanny of 7 years, our whole family was nervous about trying out someone new. Leslie put our fears to rest as soon as she arrived, engaging easily with our 3 children (7,4 &3) and asking me all the right questions about routine and preferences, etc. Five stars (or A+ as our 7 year old put it) from the whole family! The kids had so much fun with Leslie and we enjoyed a worry-free evening away. We look forward to using Leslie again!

Katie R.

7/30/2011

Leslie babysat for us for the first time last night and she was great! We have a 10 month old son and he immediately took to her. He was so calm when I handed him to her and it made me feel great about leaving him for the night. I have never left him with anyone other than family, friends and now, Leslie! She has such a professional and calming demeanor and that's exactly what we wanted for our son. We will be having Leslie back soon!

Anna H.

3/8/2011

Leslie is great! She was on time, took great care of my girls (ages 2.5 and 11 months), and even called my husband to notify him of my daughter's fever. She did a great job with a newly sick baby and even fed the girls dinner! Went above and beyond! ~Anna H.

Leslie is a SUPER SITTER!! She has all the traits any parent would want in a sitter. She is kind, generous, attentive, knowledgeable, on time, thoughtful, and very hard working.

Leslie has been wonderful with our 7 month old son. She is professional, creative, and very attentive.
