We worked with Jessica from the time my twins were 8 months until they went to K (and by that time had a 2.5 year old sister). Until my youngest was born, Jessica helped us 5 days a week in the afternoons, getting the kids out after naps, helping to clean up dinner, bathe them etc.  With three kids, we asked Jessica to help us full time. I was a stay-at-home mom and Jessica sometimes had all three kids (and had no trouble balancing an infant and 3 yo twins!), but was more often responsible for picking the twins up at preschool at lunchtime, taking them out to museums, the park or on other adventures and then bringing them home for quiet time. She’d help with kids laundry, put together quiet time activities and crafts for them, organize toys, prep lunches and more during that time. She is punctual, reliable, capable and a great balance between fun but also teaching them what was acceptable behavior. She is very engaged and when she’s working, she’s completely committed. I never worried about her being on her phone and not paying attention to the kids. It’s clear she loves kids and takes pride in being an amazing nanny and taking care of what needs to be done in the household. She certainly goes above and beyond what I’d guess many nannies consider part of their role nowadays. We really appreciated her flexibility to help with what was needed, often without being asked, as well as being flexible with the schedule as our needs changed. She has excellent judgement and I never had any concerns about safety, transparency or adhering to our family’s parenting philosophy. She is the type of person who could step in and take care of everything if there was an emergency that required my husband and I to leave for days or even a week. She knew the schedule, what to feed them and I have no doubt that she could handle everything with ease. We feel so lucky to have connected with her when our kids were so young and that she was able to be such a big part of our family and our kids’ lives until we no longer needed full time help. We highly recommend Jessica for all of your parent support needs.

She was fantastic with my daughter, who was a very fussy infant. Jessica spent hours holding her while she slept. She easily integrated into the family and used whatever technology or methods we were using. (Initially we used a Snoo sleeper and used an app to record all naps and feeding.) She help with transitioning Stella out of the Snoo and into her own crib. She prepared all meals for Stella -- never needing assistance or direction -- just made do with what was in the fridge. During Covid, she entertained Stella mostly at home, and then began taking her on walks -- she would spend hours pushing the stroller up and down the Marin hills -- walking miles and never complaining.

As Stella grew into a toddler, Jessica planned fabulous outings for the two of them. She took Stella to music classes, to the Discovery Museum, the bookstore, toystore, and to playgrounds. She was fantastically attentive. Stella was perfectly safe in her care, and Jessica would always alert me to any fever or rash or anything that she felt needed pediatric attention.

We are incredibly grateful for the support and guidance provided by Jessica in navigating the challenges of parenting our 5-year-old special needs boy. Her compassionate approach, deep understanding, and specialized expertise have had a profound impact on our family. We highly recommend her coaching services to any parent on a similar journey.

Jessica is a FANTASTIC nanny. She was my son's nanny from about a 1-2.5 years. As an aside, during that time I was also pregnant and working from home and Jessica took care of me and was a lifesaver around the house. She took fantastic care of my son, brought him to activities and whole heartedly played and sang along, came up with crafts during rainy days, took fantastic care of him when he was sick, prepared healthy meals for him, and showered him with love. She also provided gentle discipline and was very helpful to give me tips and tricks as a new mom to help dealing with the "terrible 2's." She really excelled under stress me being ill, my son having a huge tantrum and was a calming presence. Her experience is unparalleled, 17 years, and it shows! She is dependable, trustworthy, and having her as a nanny was one of the best decisions I could have made for my young son and my family.
