Most recent review

Val is a pro babysitter, has watched all of the kids in our neighborhood for years. She has spent time with children of all ages and is currently in her last year at Towson University studying to be a Kindergarten teacher and is student teaching with preschool aged children. She would do anything for the kids she nannies for and always goes out of her way to take them fun places and help them learn, even when she's off the clock.
