We miss her so! She is now considered a new member of the family.
She was a great baby sitter, and we all learned something from her. My son had a great time with her, they had an instant connection. She is a person who you can trust and have a great chat.

Fantastic experience! The family are multicultural and so friendly. They were lovely hosts, very communicative, and happy to share their cultures with me. It was a delight to look after their son, who is very sweet, intelligent and a joy to be with. We will keep in touch, and are looking forward to catching up again in the future.
