I was excited to have kids at our wedding and to have a nanny service so they have a lot of fun, too. I have two autistic sons and so many of my guests checked in on them periodically, as I was nervous they wouldn't be able to stay engaged all night. The owner absolutely took care of making the evening perfect for the kids, and was happy to accommodate my sons. They were very inclusive and were set up incredibly well. They did all kinds of activities, and all of the kids agreed that they had an amazing time. I appreciate A-List so very much. Thank you so much for everything!!!

We also had to pay $100 to get on this waitlist which always seemed odd to me, but because we were told our child is next in line on the waitlist we believed it would be worth it. In the last 6 months I have asked for a refund for the $100 waitlist fee since a 3 year waiting period with no positive news in sight is totally unreasonable. All I want is a refund for the service I am not receiving. Save your money and avoid signing up for the waitlist as we have been next in line to get in for 3 years now.

I have used Rebecca and her team to find two amazing nannies for our toddler. She is exceptional at…read morewhat she does and if you're looking for a seamless nanny search process to find a well-qualified "best in class" nanny, A Nanny for U is really the only option in town. Her process to interview and find qualified nannies that are the right fit for you family shows in the quality of candidates she puts forward. I'm honestly so shocked to read a couple of the other reviews that seem almost planted by competitors or something - she's so good! She just sourced another nanny for us after our first nanny is moving on to start her own family and a real estate career. The bond she formed with our son has been truly special - and we would have never found her if it were not for Rebecca. We've also used A Nanny for U for temp nannies when our permanent nanny is out sick or on vacation. She has sent us incredible care professionals - most that are students going to nursing school or have child care or early education backgrounds. INCREDIBLE. Her process is very direct which i appreciate - she asks our family a bunch of questions about our lives, what are dealbreakers, what are musts -- all professionally and i think that process helps her find the right fit for our family. Her team helps with reference and background checks and all the leg work that honestly as a full-time professional i don't have time to do myself. I've had friends that have tried to cut corners and go through Facebook Nanny pages or Care.com (ew) and have had truly awful experiences and have gone through multiple nannies and daycare situations. Additionally, Rebecca and her team have always been available to me over the past 2 years to answer questions on raises and bonuses, benefits, and contracts. They were prompt and always professional -- i never felt that as soon as they got their placement fee they weren't there for me as a client. They truly care about the families they serve. Yes - it is expensive. It's worth every penny - this is a company that is sourcing someone to care for your CHILD. Make the investment and hire A Nanny For U - as a mother, it was one of the best choices I've made for our family.

Unprofessional and Inappropriate Customer Service - Avoid This Company…read more I recently moved to the area and was looking for reliable childcare, so I called this company to learn more about their services. Since I had never heard of them before, I asked basic questions--do they match families with nannies? Do they facilitate interviews? Do they have a database of caregivers? Instead of receiving helpful information, I was met with an unprofessional and downright inappropriate response. Rebecca, the person I spoke with, questioned whether I was soliciting--a completely absurd and offensive assumption. I was simply a parent seeking childcare, and her comment made me feel as though I was asking for something inappropriate. It was not only disrespectful but also incredibly unprofessional. If this is the level of communication they provide to potential clients, I would never trust them to handle something as important as finding care for my children. Rebecca is clearly in the wrong line of work if she lacks the basic customer service skills to handle simple inquiries. For any parents looking for a trustworthy, professional nanny service, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. A business that treats families this way is not one you want to rely on for childcare.

It's been really wonderful seeing her express herself more clearly and forge lasting friendships with her classmates. The teaching staff is warm, friendly and genuinely has the best interests of the kids as their top priority. Their interest in getting to know our entire family and the kindness they show our younger son (who will soon enroll at The Treehouse himself) is truly heartwarming. I cannot recommend The Treehouse enough to families who are looking for a welcoming community and play-based learning environment.

I cannot recommend ELDC highly enough. They are the most genuine, invested, and caring daycare you…read morecan imagine. Our two-year-old daughter has attended ELDC for about six months, and we have been grateful for them every day of it. The staff there knows her, and they care about her individual needs. Whenever they have a concern, they reach out to us and work collaboratively to help our daughter grow. (Such a change from her last daycare, where all we heard was she was doing 'fine.') Similarly, when she accomplishes something new, they're eager to share the news, and so proud of her! The staff at ELDC is in tune with the needs of their charges, and they build their lesson plans around ensuring the kids have the sort of experiences that will help them the most. This doesn't come in the form of dull lectures, but in games, art projects, and exploration. Our daughter has learned so many wonderful, practical skills since attending. Putting on her shoes, for example. The staff models kindness, hard work, and helpfulness to the kids, and the kids respond to that. What I love most about ELDC is how involved the staff is. This isn't a place where the adults stand off to the side looking at their phones while the kids entertain themselves. They're reading them books, dancing with them, teaching them songs, conducting experiments. Every day at ELDC is an adventure! In short, my shy daughter runs into school with a smile on her face. And when I ask her what makes her happy, she frequently names her teachers. They love her, and she loves them.

Best. Daycare Ever…read more We have just completed our 8th year at ELDC, and we can't recommend it enough. The diversity, the family environment, and the best, most committed teachers and administration, all rolled into one little blue building in Broadview. Add to that the low staff turnover, reasonable tuition rates, and an in-house chef that cooks mac and cheese that is LEGENDARY amongst former students, and you've got a school that can't be beat. If you live in North Seattle and are looking for daycare or preschool, check out ELDC--you won't be sorry!

Her placement fee of 10% came out to almost 50%…read more We were looking for a part-time nanny. Because it's our first time we opted for 6 months. Everywhere, on her website, in the contract itself she says the placement fee is 10% or a minimum fee. Her minimum fee is $6000, we felt blindsided. she buried it in one line in an attachment. Not during our entire exchanges, not on the website, and not even in the actual contract itself. There are enough other businesses you shouldn't have to play games of find the On reflection what I didn't like what she did/didn't do for that price point. 1-only communicated in text or email. Didn't even talk on the phone despite my calling.. 2-Didn't inspect the home. For that price point she should do that. 3-The big one is there was no network, just posted our application on indeed. That was a what the moment for me. In another review complaining about the same thing she replies saying they use multiple resources- I never saw any evidence. And my nanny applied through the indeed posting. 4- Since then I learned there are actual nanny agencies that do payroll and insure Nannie's in house (Jovie). They don't even do that- just refer to a third party and aren't even involved in the setup.
