About Heather

Reviewed on 6/26/2023

When Heather first asked us to draft her a review, we said “absolutely!” As I started to think about what to write, I realized I don’t even know where to begin. How do you write a referral for someone who’s been such an irreplaceable part of your family for over four years? We first met Heather through Care in December of 2018 when we were looking for a full time nanny after having our first child. My husband and I both have our own businesses, work a ton of hours and do not have flexibility in our schedules. Heather has been beyond reliable over the past 4+ years. She’s never late and maybe called out once. Heather provides plenty of notice before taking off and makes it a priority to ensure we’re able to find coverage so we’re never stuck. On a few situations when we had work/travel emergencies, Heather went way above and beyond, by taking our child/children to her own house until very late at night or even the next day. Heather is raising three beautiful boys herself, so she’s well seasoned. Additionally, we love that she treats our kids like her own, and they love her like a second mom. She has an exorbitant amount of experience and energy taking care of her own kids 24/7 for almost 20 years, then running a daycare out of her house for years before watching our kids. Heather is very knowledgeable and always gives great advice, but at the same time respects how we chose to raise our kids and follows any guidelines/direction we outline. She has had to deal with several health issues and emergencies with children (including caring for a child that used to frequently have seizures), so I know she wouldn’t freeze if anything was to ever happen with my kids. I know my kids are safe with her at all times. That type of peace of mind is truly priceless. I had such an incredibly hard time initially finding someone to join our family, we must have had 20+ interviews. And the majority of those individuals were unreliable and flakey. Looking back, everything happens for a reason. I feel we found the most incredible person ever and know any family she works with in the future will be extremely fortunate as well.
