Ashley R. says "Lisa and her entire family were beyond amazing during our time with her. We were very nervous, as most new parents are, about leaving our 3 month old with a stranger, Lisa made us feel like family and took care of our little boy like he was her own. She taught them baby sign language (so so helpful!) and so many other valuable things. My son adores her and her children and we are sad to not be going to her any longer. We cannot recommend her enough!"
