I feel confident in what to do in the event of an emergency after completing the safety program; parents have shared that this brings a peace of mind from day one.
Sarah, sitter
As parents of a 5 year old with autism, we had been searching for a nanny that had training on how to remain calm and communicate with our son. Being able to easily filter for those with this specific training (and matching quickly!) meant the world to us.
Rachel, parent
We love knowing our sitter has taken gentle discipline training consistent with our parenting style. She remains calm and explains feelings; it’s made such a difference in our toddler!
