What would we have done without our team!? I genuinely cannot imagine another birth without the…read moreRRDS team! Hailey and Maddee were a dynamic team that supported us in prep, L&D, and postpartum. Hailey was our primary doula and she came in with such expertise, attention to detail and passion for what she does. She listened so intently to our needs and helped us curate a birth plan my husband and I felt confident in, and ensured our medical team followed our plan. At the time of birth she not only ensured all my needs were met but also guided my husband on how best to provide me support to create an intimate and connected birth experience. As first time parents the availability and responsiveness of this team helped us navigate L&D and the early weeks. My only regret was not signing up for this team earlier in my pregnancy!

I truly wish there were more than five stars that we could rate give this team. This service has…read morehelped us with our second child like no other. There were multiple unforeseen circumstances that came up after our child was born, such as illness of our oldest child, Medical emergencies of myself or my wife. They have come through whenever we needed help. They moved things around on their schedule to help when needed the most. The feedback they gave every night was helpful as well. They are truly Masters of their craft. Theyre very good with communication, taking care of the newborn and just overall good people. I don't think I've met a kinder group of people. You could really tell that they put their hearts into what they do. It's not just a job to them. They are here to help mothers get through the most difficult time after childbirth. I could see the struggles my wife was going through, and I did my best to help, but I knew that it wasn't enough. Rebecca and her staff provided that extra edge we needed to help out my wife. They truly are a godsend.

Samantha has always been honest and active in helping me find a job. If you are looking for a nanny agency, English Rose Nanny Agency is the best.

We signed up and got sent 7 candidates initially...we were interested in 2 so reached out....1…read morenever responded, the other initially told us she had a job already, which she then turned down, the reason being she would only work for cash, which seems inappropriate for someone signed up with an agency....so we weren't Interested in her either. We reached out for more candidates or for further help from English rose multiple times but have never received a response....waste of money Update: you haven't answered any of my wife's emails....you could have communicated the fact that one of the Nannie's was suddenly unavailable, which you didn't...the 2nd nanny you mentioned requested no such thing from us, I spoke to her directly and she made it very clear she wanted to be paid cash off the record so as not to interfere with her other job. Anyway we've moved on.

Horrible service over the past year. So many no shows and last minute cancellations. We have them…read moreone final try for a breech in child care coverage. I reached out to therm ahead of time to confirm availability and ensure no issues. Given the assurance that there would be no issues. Then two consecutive last minute child care fails! So frustrating. To make things worse I have been waiting for nearly two months for my FULL refund. I have reached out numerous times. They held my money for over a month and now we're are here at nearly two months and I am still awaiting for the rest of my refund to be processed. I wanted to love this service and give them my business as I believe that particularly with their nanny cab option they are providing a much needed service in the Sacramento area. However they are failing horribly on delivering!!!! Such a disappointment. Honestly I am uncertain how this organization is still in business with their horrible incompetencies, deplorable business practices and a horrible lack of customer service/customer focus. Clearly the owner does not understand that the families they are hoping to serve need dependable child care, a company that says what they say they are going to do, and that these families do not have time to track or beg for their money back when this service fails to deliver at the last minute. Steer clear!!

Quality of nannies: 5 stars! Quality of agency: 2 stars!…read more We had repeated schedule conflicts with this agency that resulted in me having to call in to my job on 2 occasions. Mind you that was just the month of March! When I tried to reach Lydia the first time it took her over an hour to get back to me and the second time she was out of town with no service but never followed up with me either. We had to look for a more reliable nanny else where. With the high application fee and extra expensives I would not recommend this agency. The first time we had a schedule conflict Lydia did credit my account $30 which was fair. But this last time I missed 5 hours of work and did not even receive an apology from Lydia.

I was hired as a Nanny with Yasmin and she is truly an amazing person! Anytime I did not feel…read morecomfortable working with a specific family, she was always very understanding, flexible and accommodating. This is one of the very few places that I have been hired at where I actually feel seen and heard, She will constantly praise you for the work that you do. I would love hearing positive feedback from families that I have worked with based on the care that I provided. They would always share how professional and easy it was to work with the team at Fruity Goo directed by Yasmin. As a parent it is extremely important to leave your children attended by professionals who are easy to communicate with, responsible, but most importantly Nannies that love what they do! Whether you are a parent looking for nannies or a nanny who wants to get hired, Fruity Goo is the place to go because Yasmin is absolutely wonderful to work with!

BEWARE OF THIS SERVICE!!!…read more We have been using this service for approx 1.5 years. The owners are very unprofessional and have screamed and sent me nasty emails because we forgot to let them know we needed our nanny to stay later than normal - not different days but 30 min to 2 hours later which she agreed to. They also are completely disorganized and cant keep my schedule straight even though we repeatedly told them. After stating to them they overcharged us several times because they also cant seem to figure out bookkeeping and we wanted a refund they refused. Then when I mentioned I would not spend time texting or calling them because they have accountability to figure out what their employees are doing and their hours. We never changed our schedule other than asking her to stay later than expected and she agreed. After stating this they terminated our relationship as of today and they left myself and husband without care or support for our children. BEWARE - they also have not sent a nanny on Thurs the entire year leaving my husband and I to handle on our own with no notice and communication. THIS IS THE WORST SERVICE EVER - the positive reviews are from them and their own friends.

We were truly fortunate to have found Elsa and her daycare while she was previously at her Oakland…read morelocation, as Elsa provided a safe and positive learning environment for our daughter. Elsa is an incredible caretaker who truly cares about each of the kids. She is patient, nurturing, and provides individualized attention to each child, allowing them to express themselves in their own way to encourage growth and development at each one's pace. Our daughter learned so much and enjoyed her time with Elsa, and also made wonderful connections with the other kids and families. What made our experience more special was that we felt Elsa and her family were an extension of our own family. We miss Elsa and her family dearly, but we know that she will continue to share her love at her new location in Elk Grove. Any family will be lucky to entrust their child in her care.

When we were searching for childcare for our 5-month-old, we were incredibly frustrated because we…read morecouldn't find a provider we felt comfortable leaving our little son with. Then we met Elsa, and she eased all of our worries--and we couldn't have been more right about her! Elsa is one of the best childcare providers we've ever encountered. Our son thrived in her care and absolutely LOVED being there. Elsa has an exceptional talent for understanding children's needs and tailoring her approach to meet them exactly where they are. From a parent's perspective, Elsa is a fantastic communicator. She keeps you informed throughout the day with plenty of photos and provides detailed daily reports, including notes on how your child ate, slept, and more. She's also always willing to talk about your child's day, and drop-off and pick-up times are never rushed. She was diligent about diaper changes, and we never had any issues with diaper rash while our son was in her care. Her home was always spotless, and it was clear she prioritized cleanliness. If you spoke to Elsa after hours, chances were she'd be busy deep cleaning. Overall, Elsa is a genuinely lovely person who truly loves the children in her care--and the kids feel that love. We were incredibly sad to part ways when she moved, as she made such a positive impact on our son and our family.

Drew has been such an amazing cat caregiver for my crew of fuzzballs for the past several years…read morethat I've decided I can never move out of the area. If you're looking for someone with a genuine love of and connection to cats, who is very experienced with cat behavior and health issues, and who is supremely trustworthy and reliable - look no further than Drew. Before I met Drew I spent so much time on Yelp contacting other pet sitters in the area and they all seemed like they were mostly dog-oriented and just tolerated cats and would be only dropping by to make sure my cats were alive. Then I contacted Drew and I knew right away she was special - she actually adores cats and her primary concern is getting to know your cats' individual needs and quirks and providing the best comprehensive care possible while putting your mind at ease with daily checks-ins and photos. (She also owns a photography business and you can hire her for an epic pet photo session!) Drew regularly takes care of my guys, whether I'm busy for one day or away for a longer trip. Under anyone else's care, I'd worry about their individual dietary and behavioral needs - I have a picky older cat with anxiety and urinary issues, a goofy black cat with a sensitive tummy and a history of eating inedible objects and getting the occasional ear infection, and a young, spunky one-eyed cat who once had an injured leg. Not only has Drew gotten to know each of their personalities and connected with them like they're her own pets (they greet her at the door), she has expertly attended to their occasional extra needs and has on multiple occasions taken the time to talk me through my concerns about their issues. In addition to being a cat owner herself, Drew has experience working at clinics and rescues and volunteers her time at a cat sanctuary so I thoroughly trust her input and consider her a valued care companion and part of our pet family. My cats (and I) absolutely adore Drew and there's just no better feeling when you're away than total peace of mind that your fur family is receiving the best possible care. 5 stars, 10/10. Thank you, Drew!

Now that I've experienced it, the ability to have an in-home option for a massage, especially being 35 weeks pregnant, is invaluable to me!
