    A good friend of mine recommended Kelly to me last year and I hired her regularly throughout the entire summer. My friend was right when she warned me, "get ready, you will never find a better sitter and you will have a friend for life" which is exactly what has happened. I have 2 girls ages, 5 and 7 and they more than adore Kelly, they wait by the door for her to come, they ask about her when she isn't with us, (even after months of her being away at college) and they remember the things they did with her and places they went together. She has brought my girls so much happiness. Kelly is extremely trustworthy, adventurous, confident, reliable, dedicated, great at disciplining the children when needed, she is fun and most of all, she is loving. She is unquestionably our star. More than a sitter, Kelly is has become a wonderful friend to our family.
