Ines was just the BEST. She sent pictures frequently, updated me on what her and my 18 month old were doing and kept a log of what my daughter ate and the activities they did. I was very comfortable with Ines and so was my daughter. I highly recommend her. She’s so sweet, caring and thorough. I can’t wait to have her back!

We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Ines. Our daycare closes each summer for 2 weeks (summer break) and we hired Ines to nanny for our 18mo daughter. Ines is incredibly professional, organized, communicative, punctual and genuinely worked to honor our parenting philosophy. She immediately connected with our daughter who was struggling with this change in routine, growth spurt woes and teething. Ines navigated this chaos and quickly understood how to meet our daughter's needs at that given time. We never once worried if our daughter's needs were being met in any way. Ines planned our daughter's days and over the course of 2 weeks they visited Golden Gate Park, the local library's story time, Ocean Beach, the SF Zoo, Cal Academy of Sciences and an art gallery. I'm sure I am missing some activities but you get the point! They also spent a ton of time outside in our backyard and nearby parks which we loved. You can tell she prioritizes what the child will find engaging and stimulating while balancing what the parents feel comfortable with. She taught us so much about our daughter in the last 2 weeks than we have gotten from 1yr at daycare (and our daycare is amazing). We miss her tons and would jump at the opportunity to work with her again. Do not hesitate: Ines is the best.

Ines watched our son as well as 3 of our other friends kids (ages 2wks to 5yrs) in Tahoe while we were skiing for the day. Ines did a really excellent job with them making sure they had activities to keep them active during the day and even taking them out to play in the snow so they were not just sitting in front of the TV. The kids were very happy. Ines was a very good communicator, responsive, professional and overall a joy to have watching our kids.

Ines was incredible caring for our 6 month old son! We trusted her fully with our baby. We vacationed in Lake Tahoe and she watched him for long hours for two days while we skied. She is very knowledgeable about infants and understands baby schedules. She was able to make the formula and feed him purées exactly how we asked. She went above and beyond by taking him in his stroller for a walk, playing with him in the snow, and she also worked on tummy time and rolling! Ines also took notes throughout the day and sent us photo updates while we were on the mountain. We have only amazing things to say!

During our vacation in Tahoe, we hired Ines to babysit our two-year-old son while we went out for a few hours. After interviewing her, we knew that we could trust her and that she would be a great fit- and she was! She was prompt and communicative during the interview process, the night of, and even the following day. We felt very comfortable leaving our son under her care. Ines went above and beyond and cleaned the kitchen as well! We highly recommend Ines and would hire her again.

Ines has been invaluable to our family! She is very reliable, patient, and honest. She engages and reads with our 3-year-old daughter and has helped her so much with her speech! Our daughter has grown so much in the last few months and I believe Ines has played a significant role in her development. She has a great way with toddlers and was able to really connect with her. Any family would be very lucky to have her help!

Ines was great!!! This was my first time using a sitter, so needless to say I was worried. Ines alleviated all of my worries and concerns. She was very bright and cheerful, made me feel at ease. I have a 2-year-old and a 6-year-old. The second Ines walked through the door, her personality and smile shining bright. Both kids went straight to her. She watched the kids for several hours, and when it was time for her to leave, my children did not want to let her go. Ines is great! Highly recommend.

Ines was incredible with our 4-month-old son! This was the first time my husband and I went out without our son since he was born and we felt so comfortable leaving him with Ines. She asked thoughtful questions during our initial interview that showed she was very knowledgeable and wanted to provide the best care possible. She was on time and sent us updates letting us know our son was having a blast with her. We will absolutely call Ines for all of our babysitting needs. We cannot recommend her enough!
