“Karen and her team worked tirelessly to help us find the perfect nanny for our son. As first time parents we had a million questions, and Karen was always available to jump on a call to talk us through everything. The added stress of the pandemic could have easily set us over the edge when choosing childcare for our son, but with Karen's help we felt solid in our decision making. Almost a year later we are still 100% satisfied with our choice to search and hire our nanny through The First Milestones.”
