Kelly P.

Kelly has thus far only watched my kids once, but I felt compelled to write a review this soon because I am just so impressed by her :) I have a newborn daughter and a 22 month old toddler, so watching them is certainly not the easiest of tasks to take on, but Kelly handled them with ease and made me feel SO confident and comfortable leaving my kids with a babysitter for the first time. My toddler suffers with major separation anxiety and up until now, has only been cared for by family, but he was immediately comfortable around Kelly (sat on her lap as soon as she arrived, lol), which to me was just awesome! Kelly is definitely a 5-star caregiver and I look forward to having her watch my kids more often :)

We met Kelly on Care.com, and she has provided care for random evenings or weekend afternoons as needed. My husband and I are comfortable with Kelly; as a woman who works professionally as a teacher of special needs children, we figured she would at least be patient and kind with our daughters. Not only is she that, but she is also sweet and conscientious, and creates a good balance for our girls (our house can be a little loud and crazy otherwise). :) Our daughters look forward to their 'playdates' with Kelly. She adheres to our desires regarding meals, sweets, activities, toy cleanup, bedtime, etc. She has also gone over my kindergartner's homework with her, and assisted with nebulizer treatments for asthma. We wish we had need to use her more often than we do. We definitely recommend Kelly!
