We are so grateful to have found Brenda! She has been caring for our 6-month-old son, who was very fussy at first, and she showed incredible patience and dedication in helping him gradually feel comfortable with her. Brenda’s calm and attentive approach made all the difference, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about his well-being. My wife and I have complete trust in her and are so thankful for the love and attention she gives our son. We couldn’t recommend Brenda more highly to any family looking for a kind, dependable, and caring nanny.

So appreciative for Brenda! She was easy to communicate with, great company for my boys (8 & 10) who said they really had a nice time, and left the house spotless upon my return. We look forward to having Brenda sit again when we are back in the Cape!

Brenda was amazing for our daughters while we attended a wedding in Provincetown. She was professional, reliable, communicative, and entertained our girls for hours playing board games. We will not hesitate to use her again!

Brenda babysat our 2.5-year old daughter and two dogs while we were at a wedding in Chatham. She was extremely responsive before the shift, came with such positive and loving energy, and shared updates when we were away. We will definitely keep in touch with Brenda upon our next trip to the Cape! She is amazing. 

This was our first babysitter ever for our 16mo, so to say we were nervous would be an understatement. Prior to the babysitting, Brenda answered all our questions to make us feel comfortable hiring a babysitter while on vacation. Communication for scheduling was always responsive. Upon meeting Brenda, we knew right away that she would be great. Everything we discussed was in line with what we would do with our little guy, from safety to bedtime routines, and loved that she had so much experience with toddlers his age. She really helped us feel comfortable for our first time and our toddler seemed to have so much fun based on the pictures Brenda sent us throughout the babysitting. Every future babysitter will now be held to the standard that Brenda set. 

Brenda was a huge help with our 2 young toddlers. She was always on time, easily understood our routines and somehow got both kids to always nap. Will definitely hire again and highly recommend. 

We are so thankful to have found Brenda on our vacation to Provincetown. She was punctual, great with our 9 month old, sent text updates throughout and was overall super flexible and easy. 

Brenda was great with our 6 month old! Would definitely recommend! 

Brenda took amazing care of our 2.5 year old daughter. I could tell within 5 minutes of being around her that she was super experienced and well versed in “toddler”. My daughter had a wonderful time with her. Highly recommend Brenda for your babysitting needs! 

Brenda was a wonderful sitter for our 6 year old.  Very communicative and got along great with our son and our 2 rescues :) 

Brenda was wonderful! Made me at ease with leaving my 3 month old for the first time. She was communicative and loving with our little girl. Will absolutely use her again if we come back towards the cape!

Just an absolute joy to have around and very professional.

Brenda was amazing! I instantly felt at ease when she walked into the house to watch my daughter. She sent updates and cute pictures throughout the day and anticipated my daughters needs with such ease - needing a walk, a relaxing back, some rocking to sleep, etc. I wish I lived in the area because Brenda would be my go-to pick! Best babysitter we've had by far!

Brenda was a pro! She made our toddler feel comfortable right away, and he went down easily for her. This was our first time hiring someone while on vacation, and it worked out so well! Highly recommend her!

Brenda took excellent care of my little one and went above and beyond what I expected from a babysitter! She kindly sent me updates every so often and I could tell my child had a great day with Brenda. I definitely recommend her and would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Brenda is amazing! We hired her to watch our two boys (ages 4 and 2) and she was incredible--was punctual, personable and great with the kids. She had several activities planned and they had a great time. Very highly recommended.

We had Brenda watch our 2 daughters (3 year old and 4 months old) while on vacation. While having a new babysitter watch your children is always scary, Brenda made us feel so at ease from the first phone call, and obviously when she watched our girls. She was responsible, warm, so friendly, and all around just wonderful. We'd be very happy to work with Brenda again.

Brenda takes care of our 2 year old twins on a recurring basis, and we are so glad that we found her!  It's a great feeling to know that our boys are in good hands when they're with her.  She jumps right in and takes over when she gets here, and it's so nice to be able to just step aside and go do what I need to do.  She is very engaging with them and they have so much fun with her, and she also has no problem with handling emotional toddlers! I only wish that we had found her sooner!

Thank you for taking such great care of our 13 month old! L immediately warmed up to Brenda and we felt safe leaving our baby in Brenda's care. We will absolutely use Brenda when we are back on the Cape in the future.

Brenda is simply amazing. She watched our two boys, ages 4 and 18 mo, many times over the course of several weeks and was excellent with them every time. She is kind, knowledgeable, trustworthy, fun, reliable, flexible, has tons of experience, she is engaging with the kids, a great communicator, just all the things you hope for you in a sitter. She is also a wealth of knowledge about the Cape, which we found invaluable to have someone who knows the area in and out during our travels. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her, recommend her with the highest enthusiasm, and will miss her very much.
