Carmen was the perfect fit for our family. She started with us when our son was 6 months old and as first-time parents, we found her knowledge and guidance incredibly helpful as he grew and reached new milestones. She brought so much warmth, fun, and creativity into our home, and our son was always happy to see her. She put so much thought and care into the crafts they made together, many of which are now treasured keepsakes. Carmen was a joy to be around and cared for our son and our home as if they were her own. We feel very lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her to another family.

Carmen is by far the best babysitter/nanny we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Our baby absolutely LOVED her. She was always on time, communicative, extremely warm and personable, and also so creative. She is truly a baby whisperer. Carmen truly cared about helping our little one meet his milestones. She also did very fun arts & crafts activities with him, read to him, and had no problem putting him to sleep even at his fussiest. Carmen is the best!

Carmen is the best! She is very caring and crafty which we love. Carmen helped our first born with her first steps and got her interested in arts and crafts. Highly recommend using Carmen for a loving and reliable care!

Carmen is an amazing babysitter and nanny! She cared for our baby from 6 months. He loved her immediately. She is great with naps, diaper changes, meals, reading, and developmental skills. Carmen is also a wealth of knowledge when it comes to babies and children. As new parents, we leanred a ton from her. She was always on time and incredibly accommodating to our needs. She's also super creative and made adorable art projects with him that we cherish. Most importantly, our baby loves her so much! 

Carmen was an absolute gem as a temporary nanny for our toddler. He warmed up to her immediately, which says a lot about how comfortable and at ease she made him feel!

Carmen brings a wealth of experience to childcare, both professionally and personally—she's raised four kids of her own, so she has that natural, intuitive understanding of what kids need.

She's wonderful at engaging him in activities, always coming up with creative ideas and fun artwork projects that kept him excited and enriched. She also did a fantastic job getting him out to various activities, which he loved. As a sweet touch, for Mother's Day she put together a beautiful multi-photo arrangement spelling out 'MOM'—such a thoughtful gesture that really showed how much she cares.

I highly recommend Carmen to any family looking for a caring, experienced, and creative nanny!

Carmen has been an absolute blessing for our family! From the moment she joined us, her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for children was apparent. She has an incredible ability to connect with children. Her creativity knows no bounds. She helped our daughter create endless crafts and fun photo shoots. Carmen always keeps the kids excited and happy. Can’t say enough good things about her. 

Carmen is a very caring and loving child care professional.  She is very passionate about working with children of all ages. Carmen has worked as a child care professional for many years and she truly loves what she does because it shows.  Anyone who hires Carmen or Ms. Carmen as she is affectionately known will truly be pleased.  Carmen was my assistant teacher and she helped to ensure the safety of the children that we cared for along with help maintaining an age-appropriate learning environment.  She is very trustworthy and committed person and as a co-worker of hers I highly recommend her.

I have known Carmen for over 7 years. We first worked together in a daycare setting where I quickly realized she was a valuable employee and someone the daycare leaned on. She was able to manage all age groups and the children loved her. 

Four years later we reconnect. Carmen calls me and refers me to her previous family. When I began working, I was able to see the fruits of her teaching. The walls in this home were filled with so many crafts and you can tell loved had been poured in this home. The family I now nannied for would speak highly of Carmen and would call her for weekends and other help when needed. 

Carmen and I now have developed a personal relationship as well as business. We now have a personal relationship because not only has she serviced the children of our community, but she also speaks life into my child and uses all her resources to help my daughter. 

Carmen is wonderful, punctual, loving, reliable and trustworthy any family that hired her will be blessed.

Carmen has a kind and patient spirit especially when it comes to teaching your little one! 
She is the most creative and artistic individual, which is necessary for sensory play. I have had the pleasure of witnessing Carmen along with the parent's help, mold and develop a child's Independence and creativity!
She's remarkable with aiding children in their current developmental milestones and assisting them with approaching a new one. Hire her as your nanny and your child will have a longtime friend!

Carmen has been a part of my children lives since birth. It has been many times that I had to call on Carmen to care for my children while I had to work. Carmen is very attentive, very energetic, hands on with helping with potty training and with arts and crafts. I am very thankful to have had Carmen in my children's lives when they were younger. If you want a Nanny who will help with grooming and preparing your child for school years, I definitely recommend Carmen.

Carmen is great with children and she likes to teach them different things.

Any family would be very lucky to have Carmen care for their children. Carmen worked for us for 1.5 years, from when our son was 9 months old until he was a little over 2 and started daycare. During this time she was a wonderful caregiver and teacher to him. She also taught us a lot about parenting along the way. Carmen is enthusiastic, patient, funny, kind, and nurturing, and goes above and beyond to make the days fun and educational. She is incredibly creative and made so many beautiful and clever crafts with our son, including by recycling old boxes into activities he loved. On any given day with Carmen our son would read books, sing songs, go out on adventures in the neighborhood, and make art. He learned so much in her care and they developed a special relationship that continues to this day. We wholeheartedly recommend her.

Carmen is very passionate about what she does. She does an amazing job looking after children in her care. Finding ways to stay entertained is definitely up her alley. From arts and crafts, to reading and singing, dancing and playing, this women just never ceases to amaze. I would highly recommend her as a nanny you won't regret it.

Not sure what to do, because if I describe Carmen truthfully, people are probably going to think that this is a fake review! I will say that she was our nanny for three years and two children. I call her 'the baby whisperer' because, although she's great with all ages, Carmen is just magic with babies. Her crafting activities are next level (yes, from newborn on up, she will have them painting!), and she loves to have them out and about with lots of physical play and walks. So caring, but also a total professional. I used to go to work and spend an entire day not worrying about how my kids were, because I knew they were in the best hands. Even now that my oldest is five, Carmen has a place in her heart that nobody else can touch.

A few yrs ago, Carmen cared for my son from 3 months - about 15 months in a private childcare center. We were all upset when she decided to leave to become a full-time Nanny. Our son thrived under her care and we never had a concern about his safety. Carmen really loves children and she ensures that their development and exposure to arts and crafts are met. In regards to arts and crafts, Carmen is extremely creative. She can make something out of nothing and make it look like it costs a million bucks! She is the most loving, attentive, creative and knowledgeable caretaker that anyone can ask for. She ensures that your child meets milestones and advises you if there are concerns. My husband and I had our second child and reached out to see if she was available but we no longer live near one another. 

Whoever snags Carmen as their Nanny won't regret it. She's top tier, for sure! 

Good luck in everything, Carmen. I pray that you continue to bless families with your loving care. -Elan
