Reviewed on 7/19/2021

I would highly recommend Alena in childcare - I cannot say enough good things about her! Alena helped our family with virtual school and babysitting from January through May 2021. She helped our two kids with their day of classes on zoom, assignments outside of zoom, and providing childcare when they were not in class. She was very engaged, energetic, patient, creative, and caring. She was great at communicating with my husband and I about what was going on with school and with the kids, and was very reliable. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!
