“Marcia was absolutely amazing. This was the first time we left our baby and were extremely anxious. We did a meet and great beforehand to make sure it was a good fit and it was perfect! Remy got along with Carson and we knew it would work. On drop off day, it was a smooth transition and soon after leaving, we got pictures of Remy letting us know he was ok. Each day Marcia sent a message and pictures/video. We truly appreciate her more than words can say and will absolutely use her again! Remy already misses his new friends.”

She offered to meet with us before hand, she sent photos several times a day, was flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, and was very communicative. We would definitely use her again and again.”
