I only have great things to say about my experience working with Boston Collegiate Nannies. As a…read morefirst time mom, I had a hard time wrapping my head around letting someone else care for my child. The search process for a caregiver felt extremely overwhelming, and I was worried that despite my best efforts I would not find someone properly qualified to take care of my son. Thankfully, I found Boston Collegiate Nannies. My husband and I could not be happier with our nanny. She is wonderful and a tremendous help to our family. Our son lights up when she arrives in the morning, and she is clearly invested in his happiness and development. She is organized, engaged, and makes us feel confident that our child is in good hands. When we began our childcare search I found it to be extremely stressful; however, my first conversation with Lydia at BCN put my mind at ease. She clearly demonstrated industry knowledge, and she took a thoughtful, detailed inventory of the qualities that my husband and I were looking for in a nanny. Throughout the search process Lydia was extremely communicative and diligent, providing regular status updates and efficient follow up to any conversations we had with candidates. All of the candidates that Lydia recommended for interviews were excellent, and we could tell that she carefully considered the criteria that we discussed. I do not think that we would have had such a successful outcome in our childcare search without the help of Lydia and her team at BCN. Both my husband and I were extremely impressed by our experience working with BCN and would highly recommend them!!

My sister, who just started a position through BCN, referred me to them. I have been pleasantly surprised by the whole. Lydia and her team have been very helpful, professional and punctual. They respond to emails in a timely manner and are working very hard to keep the process as quick as possible. BCN takes the hard work out of the job search. From start to finish they assist you in finding a job. From interviewing you before they send your information to a family each time to checking in regularly to see how things are going. They even have a free training for each nanny called the "Savvy Sitter" training. It goes over the ins and outs of being a nanny. I am excited to finalize everything and start my new position soon. This is my first time working with an agency and I don't think I'll go back to looking for a job without one.

In all that time, I feel that he has been very well cared for and liked (even loved) by his teachers.

My Pre-K son, blossomed literally. The ratio student/teacher is low, the academic side is taught in a sensory way. Children learn at play. Every children is considered as a special person, they learn how to manage their emotions and how to interact with others. My daughter spent 3 years from toddler to Pre-K. Waverley Square was a second home, teachers were so kind that she even asked to go to school on week-ends and vacation. When entering into Kindergarten, she was emotionally and socially ready for this big jump. The little friends she met there, are still very important for her she is very connected with them even if they don't attend the same school. More than leading a classroom or a day care, the staff organizes many events through the year : Halloween, St Valentine's day, sports support (Go Red Soks! Go Patriots! Go!), St Patrick's Day, Dr Seuss' week, Mother's Day,.... As a parent, I felt as belonging to a great festive community!! I feel very grateful to Monoshini and her team for everything they have done for our children and our family.

Kristin was so understanding and scheduled my sessions with Karina. I'm not a very religious person by Karina was my angel. She helped my son go from waking 6+ times a night to only 2! Fast forward to my son being 12 months old, I was so impressed with Karina that I asked if she could sleep train my son (honestly thought that was going to be impossible). My son was sleeping through the night within 5 days.. 5 days can you believe it! I owe everything to Karina and Kristin. Not only did they help me in a time of need, Karina has become a confidant (something I really need being a first time mom). She has even given me advice about transitioning from the crib to toddler bed. If you are considering a night nurse or even sleep training, I cannot recommend Nightingales enough. You will not be disappointed!!

Moreover, she was very accommodating and professional, which helped us to trust our baby and our home to her. Seriously, Trisha is the best.

We got extremely lucky when a colleague recommended A Better Way Pet Sitting to me three years ago…read moreas we were preparing to go on our annual Cape Cod vacation. Previous to then, we had always used kennels when traveling. At that time, our two dogs were young and healthy and emotionally balanced. We still weren't happy about boarding them, but we felt it was a safe option for them. We had had horrible experiences with different kennels -- including one that was located inside an animal hospital -- and we swore we would never board our pets again. We didn't know who we could trust to take care of our high maintenance dogs and to go in and out of our home several times a day. Who would do all of the things our aging pets needed, such as give them medicine, feed them their special diet, keep an eye on their health and so on. (One of our dogs was diagnosed with a slow growing cancer last September and the other is a dachshund that suffers from separation anxiety.) Well, we can't recommend Wendi, Michele and Naomi enough! In fact, all of the pet sitters they have sent us over the last three years have been so loving and caring. These sitters really love animals and you can tell from the notes they leave for us that they truly enjoy their work caring for the pets. ABW pet sitting is like finding a terrific babysitter where your comfort level is as high as it can go! I would trust them with anything!! We go away without fear now and when we return, our pets are exactly as they were when we left... they aren't anxious or upset in any way and they look great! ** During this most recent trip our lock wasn't working properly on the front door. Michele contacted me immediately and managed the situation without any hiccups. They are THAT responsible!! Unbelievably great people!!!

I thought the value for the deep cleaning was time efficient and they did alright work. Sometimes you just need a clean slate, and they definitely got things into a good state. Edit: Actually - I had someone do a deep clean one time before, like several years ago. That's beside the point. That's where the praise stops, though. Unfortunately, the toilette was clogged after the cleaning. After the second cleaning, the bathroom in my other toilette was clogged. I felt kind of rude asking about the first so I decided to refrain asking about the second. We use a bidet and no one is stuffing loads of toilette paper down the drain. Plus, during the first incident no one had used the toilette in that bathroom. I am nearly positive they put paper or chemicals in the toilette. The follow up cleaning jobs were really just supposed to be maintenance (floor mopping, wiping down bathroom surfaces). Both instances my entire house was reorganized more or less. All of my recycling and compost were dumped in the garbage. It is absolute chaos. I lost of prescription medication planner for a week (it was sitting in plain site and later found wedged behind a coffee maker). Both times dirty gloves and rags were draped over clean knifes in my kitchen. Both times I've had to thoroughly wash the knifes and knife block. The dishwasher was filled with additional dishes (packed over the full capacity) and just left in place. No idea what was actually clean. The sink itself was emptied of dishes queued to be washed, but not actually cleaned? It made no sense. I figured they would be moving things out of the way if you need to wipe down a surface, or pushing things to the side. However it went further than that. I still can't find my most frequently used cutting board. I am sure it will appear in some random cupboard. I am fully capable of cleaning my own home, and to a higher standard of quality. The entire point is that I'm only one person with limited time to do so. I suppose I'll just need to make that time more of a priority. Of course things are cleaner, but over 2.5 or so hours with two people I just expected things to be more thorough. Not a huge deal at fave value but this is all sort of compounding to be frank. In short, weird as hell experience, confused by the results. Don't recommend.
