"Rachael was great with our kids. They enjoyed playing with her and asked when she could watch them again. She helped put my mind at ease with how easy she was to communicate with. We would definitely hire her again."

Special Needs Provider

I have experience caring for a few kids who have had autism/adhd. I am also an older sibling to children with learning delays and health requirements, which I think makes me a good candidate for other families searching for someone to care for their bundles of joy. If I can help your family, please let me know!
