Employer comments

Kirsten assisted us for the best part of the past year. She has been a great support to our family and took good care of our 10- and 12-year-old boys. We run a tight ship and with very little support she stepped in and managed the majority of the boys' needs. We are really grateful for the support and appreciate particularly the care taken with homework execution, particularly with Afrikaans!

Employer comments

To Whom It May Concern, Kirstin W has looked after my two sons for the past 3 years. She is a responsible, well adjusted young woman with integrity. She is kind and enjoys working with children. She is dependable and my children always felt safe and secure with her. My sons are now 10 and 11 years old. We are immigrating to America and will no longer require her services. I will recommend her to any parent who requires a care giver for their children. Yours Sincerely, Lucinda D
