Elena has been fantastic! She was punctual, great at communication and my son loved spending time with her. When she left A. went to her asking to hug her and asked her to come back so they can play more hide and seek. I would highly recommend Elena to other families who need babysitting.

FAQs for finding a mother's helper
What type of mother’s helpers services can I find near me in Ridgefield, WA?
In a lot of cases mother’s helpers take on many of the same babysitter duties that a normal babysitter does.

Usually, a mother’s helper is a “babysitter in training” who isn’t old enough to be alone in a home with children, but can help keep an eye on children while parents are nearby while taking some time to themselves.
