Testimonials

My family was in a really tight spot and we needed child care immediately and didn’t have the time to vet through dozens of applicants from online services/referrals. Caring Connections was amazing!! They made the process so easy and worked quickly to schedule candidates to interview. They listened to all the qualifications and job responsibilities we were looking for and found us an amazing nanny who is now like part of our family. I don’t know what my family did without Martha and I am so grateful Caring Connections was able to find us the perfect match! She also provided us with temporary care during the search process which relieved some of our stress.

Caring connections was my savior! I didn't even know where to begin searching for a nanny. They took the time over several calls to understand the qualities and type of person I was looking for, and Betina was so lovely and personable, which instantly made me feel comfortable. Our nanny became a part of our family, and I know she is also tremendously appreciative of Caring Connections's work. I have referred Caring Connections to several other families over the past year and they also have this wonderful team to thank for stress-free nanny searches, and great matches. Thank you so much Caring Connections!

I have referred clients to Betina and her team for the last several years. Each of them has raved about the nanny that was placed with their family.I feel confident recommending Caring Connections because of their professionalism, attention to detail, and reliability.

Betina has been a lifesaver to our family three times over the past several years. She is incredibly responsive and thoughtful and has a strong pool of candidates to draw from. Not only did she help us find fabulous nannies for my family and children, she was there to help me think through questions and navigate issues as they arose. Most recently we had a change in nannies and she helped us find a new nanny within 48 hours and we had no disruption in coverage! It was a miracle. I feel incredibly grateful to her help and to know that I will always have her as a resource to turn to.
