We are especially grateful to Maggie, who was able to find a replacement nanny in less than 24 hours with some challenging circumstances that happened last minute with one of my kids! The nannies that we've had have all been very professional, kind and thoughtful. It's been such a pleasure to work with SPN and feel so supported to have them in our community.

Maggie just spent 30 minutes on the phone with me answering questions and letting me pick her brain (it's a very good brain!). She's so articulate and experienced and I came away feeling supported and cared for and I received sage advice that I will feel safe implementing at work. It should be stated again that SPN are so good at what they do; they placed me with a wonderful family 7 years ago and I'm still there! Amazing, right? Thanks again Stanford Park!

Childcare is really personal. We rotated through various childcare options. We had a nanny for my…read moreinfant and then tried another daycare before we found Ms. Ana's. This is definitely the best fit for us. My daughter is not a great eater. At the previous daycare, they would send her food back every single day and she became pickier to the point where she only ate fruit. She became visibly thinner so I pulled her out to get her back to health. A friend recommended Ms. Ana so we gave daycare another shot. We started at Ms. Ana's a few months ago and my daughter is chunky again. This is one of the many signs of their attentiveness to every single child--they literally run after my daughter to shove a spoonful of purée in her mouth. My daughter loves her time at Ms. Ana's. She reaches for Ms. Ana at drop off and is all smiles when I pick her up. We get timely communication throughout the day--they are up front with any issues. They have a great outside play area and indoor space for circle time and etc. Healthy snacks and home cooked meals are provided. The warmth and love they give each child is clear and abundant. On a side note, once you're "in the family", they will take drop-ins for siblings (immunization forms and etc required). This place is a second home.

She accommodates my schedule and very generous with time before the start date of the child. Under her suggestion we came for transition visits for a month before at no extra cost. We love Ms. Ana!

We loved my daughter's experience at Kim's Kreative Korner. Kim took care of my daughter for 1.5…read moreyears, from the time she was 18 months to 3-years-old. We found Kim to be patient and great at working with kids. She gave us a lot of useful feedback and tips on how to work with our daughter in various situations, which we appreciated as first time parents. She keeps her child-to-caretaker ratio lower than what is allowed based on their licenses. Our daughter also benefited from the mixed age groups - she was inspired to learn to walk by the older kids. Kim mentioned that their approach is inspired by the play-based Emilio-Reggio approach. They have structured circle time in the mornings where the kids can go around to share, as well as story times and activities during the day. The kids also have plenty of play time outside.

I was a CNS nanny for about a year and a half, while studying at De Anza college, and it was one of the most comfortable, most professional companies I have ever had the pleasure of working with! They allowed me to set my schedule every week based on MY availability! (crazy right!) They gave me the option of working regularly with the same families, become a tutor or babysit for date nights; I chose all of the above. I was able to work with so many different children, parents, throughout the Bay Area. The CNS staff was always super attentive and made sure I felt comfortable in any new home I was going to be visiting. 100/100 would recommend CNS!

The transition to daycare was a breeze and our daughter stayed the full day on her second day. It was easy and made us feel so comfortable having Flor watch our daughter. The daycare is clean, stocked with so many fun toys and Flor always has fun activities (arts and crafts, music class + more). I was also in shock with how much our daughter learned during her time there. What I really loved/appreciated was that Flor provided updates for us via text/email. We are so blessed that our daughter was able to be at Villa's Daycare with Flor! We are forever thankful.

Our daughter attended Villa's Daycare from 9 months to 16 months…read more When my wife and I were first looking for daycare, we were incredibly nervous about finding the right place, so we interviewed what seemed like every daycare in the area. When we met Flor for the first time, we knew within minutes that she was the right caregiver for our daughter. Flor just exudes patience, warmth and care, and we definitely felt comfortable leaving our daughter with her. Flor was extremely flexible when our daughter began day care. We were able to slowly transition her into daycare by bringing her in for a few hours here and there, before transitioning to full days within a couple of weeks. It was super easy to work with Flor for any special dietary & drinking needs for our baby. Villa's Daycare is immaculately clean and well stocked with toys, and Flor does a great job stimulating the babies with activities and events every week. It was great to see our daughter come home every holiday with special arts & crafts, and photos of the babies dressed up :) Flor does a good job keeping in touch with parents via text or email. Even during the COVID shutdown earlier this year, Flor continued to keep in touch with our family, providing story time and music time via video, which our daughter loved. We feel very fortunate to have found Villa's Daycare!

Amy and Marie take the time to ensure real alignment, and they never submit a candidate unless there's genuine compatibility. They represent one of the strongest portfolios of nannies in the Bay Area, and their work is driven by both passion and compassion--something rare even compared to top corporate recruiters. I'm now working with two wonderful families through Genuine Nannies and feel honored to be part of the homes they carefully matched me with. Highly recommend for Nannies and for Families.

They were diligent in verifying my background and references, which I know ensures they only represent high-caliber caregivers.
