Kelly B. says:
Ricka has done an incredible job with our two children. Her vast experience shows she has the correct demeanor and talent to work with any child. When we say that Ricka is coming over or that we are taking our daughters to Ricka's house...all we here is "HOORAH". She really is a babysitter and educator all rolled in to one package. She has my most strongest recommendation...don't know what we would do without her. More

Ricka was absolutely wonderful! The first time I met her it felt like we were old friends, so I knew that she was perfect to watch my two kids. Her being very warm and friendly, you could just see the love she has for children. She saw how nervous I was, being this was the first night that my husband and I were able to go on a date by ourselves in a long time, she assured me that everything would be alright... More
