I'd definitely recommend them to anyone who wants jobs in the Westchester area.

I explained that I could not leave my current job high and dry however managed to shave off a few days and start the position sooner than expected. Classic Westchester confirmed this with The Company and everyone agreed I can start the date that I proposed. I signed paper work. I told friends and family. 2 days later (less than a week before I was supposed to start) they called to tell me The Company "backed out" last minute because they found someone else on their own. Classic Westchester tried to soften the blow by explaining that they told me The Company needed me immediately and these things happen. I've never heard of such a thing and asked to never be contacted again. I will never be working with Classic Westchester again!

She was very sweet, friendly, confident and genuinely seemed interested in helping me find good employees for my home. I enjoyed speaking with her and she didn't try to rush our conversation or tell me what I wanted to hear. She asked questions that were both helpful and enabled me to think about what my exact needs were. In total, we interviewed four nannies and three housekeepers. I can honestly say that I was pleasantly surprised that each one had their strong points and it made the decisions quite challenging actually...I think we could've been happy with a number of the candidates we met. In the end, we are confident that the individuals we hired are excellent matches and will be with us for many years (hopefully!).
