Susan V.

To be frank, I panicked when our babysitter situation fell through. I felt at a loss, this website helped a lot, but what was once a frightening situation became an amazing one, once my family met with Susan. From my first phone call with Susan, I felt so comfortable with her. She reminded me of the best qualities of my mother & my mother in law. We spent at least 20 minutes on the phone with her telling me all about her services and the lessons that she instills in the children she cares for. When we hung up - I knew we were hiring her. When we met Susan, it was perfect. Her classroom (yes, she has a classroom) is ADORABLE and everything I could've dreamed up for my daughter. She has a great amount of outdoor toys for the kids in nice weather, slides, cozy coupes, sporting equipment, sandbox, etc. We never even left her house to discuss our decision together, once my husband went in and looked at the classroom, we were sold. We hired her on the spot. Our daughter started the following Monday. We have been with Susan about 2 months now and I cannot say enough about her. I rave about her to everyone I meet and am so happy to say that I found her on this website. My daughter cherishes her and is always excited to go see her friend Susan. As far as the learning aspect goes - Susan is an amazing teacher. Our daughter knows some days of the week, the month and seasons, and can even count backwards from 10 already! Susan keeps everything entertaining and fun. I look so forward to picking up our daughter every day & seeing if there's a fun art project waiting for me to admire! In closing & honestly, I think this says it all; I ask our daughter every night if she had a nice day, and her answer is always yes. I then continue and ask what her favorite part was and her answer is always the same, 'Susan's'. Even when she doesn't go to Susan's that day - she answers 'Susan's'. I think that speaks volumes. :)
