Natalia F.

Absolutely FANTASTIC!!! We contacted Natalia on a "spur of the moment" trip to The Florida Keys. Thinking that it would be extremely difficult to find someone to care for our 8-month-old son on such short notice, Natalia was our saving grace - she happily agreed to look after him while we went on a fishing trip. I have rarely left my son with someone other than family in the past, so, of course there is a little bit of reluctance when it comes to leaving him with someone I had never personally met. After speaking with Natalia, my mind was set at ease. I was extremely impressed that she was certified in CPR/First Aid and has a degree in childhood education. She promptly arrived at our hotel at the scheduled time and after about a ten-minute introduction and review of my son's schedule - I couldn't have been more comfortable with Natalia caring for him. She sent me several updates via text message throughout the day which kept me worry-free knowing that he was doing well. Upon my arrival back to the hotel, my son was "all smiles" and happily playing. Natalia gave me a detailed run-down of his entire day - which included a stroller ride to the marina behind our hotel (I gave her permission to do this before I left!!). He loved watching the boats and iguanas across the canal! We ended up staying another day since the fishing was so good! Again, last-minute, I called Natalia, and she so graciously agreed to help us out again. Our second day was a perfect repeat of the first - everything went so smoothly! I will absolutely, positively contact Natalia for all of our future Keys trips and keep my fingers crossed that she is available. This review is actually bitter-sweet for me because I know once other families find out how wonderful she is - I can only hope she will be able to fit us in!!! Thank you, Natalia, for an amazing experience! We are truly fortunate to have found you! Bobby, Ali, and son Fort Myers & Vero Beach, FL
