We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Ms Margot and could not recommend her more highly. Margot was completely dependable—an important constant while my spouse and I navigated pandemic parenting and work-from-home. She built strong connections with our two boys, who were 2 1/2 and 4-months old when she started with us in 2020. She was extremely helpful around the house while juggling the ever-changing needs and dynamics of infant + toddler to toddler + child and now two kids. Margot brought love, patience, and compassion to her work with both of our children. She developed their curiosity about the world, getting them out of the house and into the many nearby playgrounds, parks, and museums on a daily basis. She also worked hard to develop their capacity for language and numeracy. Thanks in large part to the daily work of Ms Margot, our boys are more than ready for preschool and Kindergarten this Fall. She is very experienced and dependable, and you will not regret hiring her. We miss her dearly!
