Elizabeth A.

Elizabeth A. worked for me for almost three years. She looked after my daughter in my home five days a week. On the days I worked in New York, she worked from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., and on the days I telecommuted, she worked from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Her duties involved feeding baby (bottles and solids), preparing food, changing diapers, bathing, reading, general play and entertainment. She took her out for walks and outings to the park, library, etc. Liz is a very cheerful person. She did her job very well and with enthusiasm. She was truly fond of my child and took very good care of her. She followed instructions but also used her common sense while performing her duties. I felt very comfortable leaving my child with her because she is diligent and conscientious. She enjoyed the easy days but also pulled through with a smile on the difficult ones. She was always singing to my baby, teaching her different shapes, colors, sounds, numbers, etc. She was a very positive influence on our little girl and we enjoyed having her. I am now a stay-at-home mother with a second child. If you have any questions about Liz, I would be very happy to speak with you.

I would like to wholeheartedly recommend Liz as a nanny. I am a new, first-time mother to a two-month old daughter and, as all new mothers, was reticent to try care.com. I am glad I did though because otherwise we would not have met Liz. I cannot express enough how wonderful a caregiver is to our little girl. Liz is warm, loving and kind and treats our daughter as her own child. She feeds, sings, reads, and plays with our daughter, along with doing many other baby-related things. Liz has a wonderful disposition--enthusiastic and happy. You can tell that she really loves children and caring for their well-being. Liz is obviously highly skilled at baby care and we as new parents have even learned a lot from her. She is also very dependable and we feel safe and secure knowing our baby is in her great hands. We are lucky to have Liz and consider her a member of the family.

Liz has cared for our daughter for the past year, beginning when our daughter was 3 months old. She has been a very reliable, loving, and responsible caregiver. Liz is very punctual, she is also flexible as far as her hours when we needed her to stay a few hours longer. She is an intelligent and educated caregiver who has a great disposition and experience. Some of Liz's greatest qualities are her good humor, her energy and her outgoing personality. She understands children and relates well to them through singing, dancing, and playing. In addition, she is very knowledgeable about children's educational, dietary and developmental needs. If you have any questions about Liz, we would be happy to speak with you.

Elizabeth provided childcare services for me. She started taking care of my child at the age of 3 months, and worked for me for 5 1/2 years. I have the highest regard for Liz and the wonderful service she provided. Liz is a very pleasant and knowledgeable person, and did a fantastic job caring for my child. I typically work long hours, and she was always dependable and flexible. She is very professional, maintaining her CPR certification and taking various continuing education classes. My child really liked being with Liz. She has a fun and happy disposition. She genuinely enjoyed getting down on the ground to play with him, and also engaged him in educational activities (reading, math, etc.). Her background is in teaching, and she was always looking for ways to teach him and help him develop cognitive and language skills. She always had activities planned (arts and crafts, trips to the library, music class, gym, etc.), and my son routinely told me what he and Liz did that day. My son s language skills were a bit delayed when he was younger, but Liz worked with him to improve his vocabulary and pronunciation. Needless to say, having a nanny who knows about language development and speech therapy was a blessing! Liz s positive spirit was also beneficial. When my son was a baby, he was somewhat colicky, but with her warm and nurturing care, his general mood improved over the first two years. He went from being a cranky boy who cried frequently to an affectionate kid who smiles and laughs easily. Now that my son is in school full-time and attending an after-school program, I no longer need Liz s services. I am happy to offer my enthusiastic recommendation of Liz to any prospective employer.
