Recommendations

Brigitte L has looked after our 3 children (ages 5 and 3 (twins)) mainly for parts of the weekend for over 2 years. We highly recommend her. She is professional, hard working, flexible, punctual, and fabulous with our children. We all love her. She mainly cares for our children but also helps with light housekeeping (dishes and tidying) when needed. She makes the children feel very loved and important. When she cares for our children she writes a note about each child. I have kept many of these notes because they always make me smile and makes me feel like I was with my children during the time I was gone. Each note is specific to each of my children. She captures their humour and personalities which leaves me feeling my children are truly loved and being taken care of properly. She makes the children feel safe by being consistent with the rules. They are always happy and calm when I leave and return home. Brigitte L is by far the best caregiver we have had! You will not be disappointed. Do not hesitate to contact me.

My twins had the good fortune of having Brigitte as their teacher in their first year of nursery school. It didn't take either of them long to adjust and we have "Miss Brigitte" to thank for that. Brigitte was a highly competent, caring teacher who went out of her way to make the children comfortable and ensure they learned in a nurturing environment. The fact that our twins are so different is a testament to Brigitte's versatility as a teacher and child caregiver. She had a unique and meaningful relationship with each of our children where she met them on their terms and made them feel comfortable through her incredible warmth and fun. Both relationships have made a lasting impression on the twins and though they've moved on to another class, she's made the effort to maintain the relationship. Lastly and perhaps most importantly, Brigitte was an incredible advocate for her student's safety and well-being regardless of what protocol said. And for that, we as parents we incredibly grateful and felt lucky to have had Brigitte as our twins' first teacher.
